Political representation is a cornerstone of democratic governance and plays a crucial role in fostering sustainable development. However, in many regions, weak political representation has hindered governance effectiveness, limiting citizen participation and institutional trust. This study examines the relationship between political representation management and sustainable development. A correlational, non-experimental research design was employed, using surveys to assess political representation and sustainable development. A sample of 138 citizens was selected based on statistical precision criteria. The study analyzed data using Spearman’s correlation and descriptive statistics to identify significant relationships between key variables. Findings indicate that 48% of respondents perceive political representation at a medium level, while 28% rate it as low, revealing inefficiencies in parliamentary engagement. The study found a strong correlation between political representation and socially responsible hiring (r = 0.911), public service quality (r = 0.801), and institutional trust improvement (r = 0.817). These results suggest that effective representation is critical for governance quality and sustainable policies. Conclusions: Strengthening political representation through transparency, accountability, and citizen engagement is essential for sustainable development. Future research should explore the role of digital tools in enhancing political participation and the impact of leadership training on governance effectiveness.
