Analysis Of Tourism Villages Sustainability Managed By Village-Owned Enterprises (BUM Desa)

Abstract

The development of Tourism Villages is one of the Government's strategies to reduce inequality and equity. The Ministry of Villages, Development of Disadvantaged Regions, and Transmigration sets policy directions and strategies in increasing investment in rural superior products, one of which is through facilitating the development of Tourism Villages managed by Village-Owned Enterprises (BUM Desa). This research aims to analyze the level of sustainability of 6 (six) Tourism Villages, namely: Sukalaksana Village, Garut District, Kebundadap Timur Village, Sumenep District, Dadapan Village, Pacitan District, Kalipelus Village, Pacitan District, Jarum Village, Klaten District, and Serang Village, Purbalingga District based on economic, social, environmental, cultural and institutional dimensions. This study used a qualitative approach, with data collected including primary and secondary data. Primary data was collected through in-depth interviews with several informants, field observations, and documentation, while secondary data was collected from reports and study results. The state of sustainability of the six tourism villages was analyzed using Rapfish/MDS (Multy Dimentional Scalling). The results of the analysis of the sustainability status of the Tourism Village show that, for the economic dimension, apart from Kalipelus Village, which has a poor sustainability status, the other five villages have a moderate sustainability status. In the social dimension, except for Desa Jarum, which has a less sustainable status, the other five villages have a moderate sustainability status. In the environmental dimension, with the exception of Jarum Village, which has less sustainability status, the other five villages have sufficient sustainability status. In the cultural dimension, all six villages have sufficient sustainability status. In the institutional dimension, three villages (Sukalaksana, Serang, and Kebundadap Timur) have a less sustainable status, while the other three villages (Kalipelus, Jarum, and Dadapan) have a moderate sustainability status.
