The higher the accountability of the Ngawen District government, the better the management of village fund allocation would be. Moreover, in the transparency dimension, it is showed that a better transparency of the Ngawen District government will improve the management of village fund allocation. Keywords: accountability, transparency, managing, village funds Introduction The implementation of autonomy for the village becomes a force for the village government to manage, organize, and organize their households. This implementation has an impact on increasing the burden of responsibilities and obligations of the village. Even so, the administration of the village government must still be accounted for.
