Planners work with various types of organizations, sometimes providing technical expertise and at other times facilitating communication between various organizations and interest groups. Planners also play an important role in "organizational learning." In this thesis, the author describes how organizational practices change through learning. By using the concepts of translation and adoption-innovation in the Actor-Network Theory and theoretical foundations on social learning, empowerment and distributive justice, the authors then apply them in analyzing the case of changes in the concept of clean water infrastructure development planning by NGOs and the community who are actually in the Kotaku program positioned as working committee and beneficiaries in Kampung Belmesra - Ambon City. In our analysis it shows not only how the learning process has caused behavioral changes in NGOs and communities starting from the planning, implementation and actualization of development programs. The empirical part of this paper focuses on the role of NGOs and beneficiaries in the Balmesra village - Ambon City who changed the initial conception of planning the development of clean water pump infrastructure in the Kotaku program to realize distributive justice. In investigating the process of changing conceptions, our main question is only, how are the roles of NGOs and beneficiary communities learning and changing the conception of clean water infrastructure development in the Kotaku program? We begin by introducing the concept of translating and adopting innovation-Actor-Network Theory, then the learning process in the case of NGOs and beneficiary citizens at each stage of adoption-innovation is analyzed with reference to the typology of social learning. We show not only how the learning process has caused behavioral changes in NGOs but also in the community, but also discusses the case in this study with the concept of empowerment in development theory.
