Penelitian kualitatif ini mengkaji kondisi transparansi terkini dalam pengelolaan dana otonomi khusus Papua, dengan tujuan mengungkap berbagai tantangan yang menghambat transparansi dan mengusulkan berbagai strategi untuk peningkatannya. Dengan memanfaatkan analisis data sekunder, penelitian ini menyelidiki praktik transparansi, mekanisme pengungkapan, dan ketersediaan data yang relevan. Temuan penelitian mengungkap berbagai tantangan signifikan, termasuk hambatan birokrasi, ambiguitas hukum, mekanisme pengawasan yang lemah, dan penolakan terhadap inisiatif transparansi, yang menghambat transparansi dalam pengelolaan dana. Meskipun ada berbagai tantangan tersebut, penelitian ini mengidentifikasi berbagai strategi yang layak untuk meningkatkan transparansi, seperti membangun mekanisme pengungkapan yang komprehensif, memperkuat pengawasan, melibatkan para pemangku kepentingan, dan melaksanakan berbagai inisiatif peningkatan kapasitas. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa meskipun mencapai transparansi dalam dana otonomi khusus Papua menimbulkan berbagai tantangan, hal itu memang mungkin dilakukan melalui berbagai upaya bersama dan intervensi strategis.
