COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT IN THE TOURISM DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM IN KAMPUNG KETUPAT SAMARINDA
Abstract
This study aims to analyze community empowerment in the tourism development program in Kampung Ketupat Samarinda, focusing on the stages of empowerment and factors that influence its success. The research method used is qualitative with a case study approach, through data collection techniques in the form of in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation studies. The results showed that community empowerment was carried out through three main stages: (1) Awareness Stage, including the introduction of tourism potential and local wisdom-based educational programs; (2) Capacity Stage, in the form of skills training and multi-stakeholder collaboration to increase community capacity; and (3) Enrichment Stage, where the community is given access and opportunities to manage tourism independently. Supporting factors for success include community motivation and government policy support, while inhibiting factors are budget limitations and inadequate infrastructure. This study concludes that community empowerment through community-based tourism development can improve economic welfare and preserve local culture, as long as it is supported by active community participation and collaboration between stakeholders.
