Abstract

Girilayu Batik Village, a cultural legacy associated with the Mangkunegaran Palace, preserves a distinctive tradition of hand-drawn batik whose continuity is increasingly challenged by commercialization, limited intergenerational transmission, and unequal digital capacity. This study examines how an integrative Community-Based Heritage Tourism model can support the sustainable preservation of Girilayu’s batik heritage while strengthening community livelihoods. A descriptive qualitative case study was conducted using in-depth interviews and participatory observation involving 12 key informants. The findings reveal that philosophically significant motifs, particularly Tri Dharma, constitute important cultural assets for heritage-based tourism. Community-led preservation undertaken by Paguyuban Batik Giri Arum is sustained by strong social capital but constrained by digital disparities and limited artisan regeneration. Based on these findings, the study proposes an integrative model grounded in the Triple Bottom Line, comprising cultural revitalization through heritage interpretation, sustainable livelihood development through digitalization and local fair-trade initiatives, and participatory tourism ecosystem development. The study concludes that sustainable batik preservation requires a community-centered tourism framework that positions local actors as primary custodians, and beneficiaries of their cultural heritage.
