<![CDATA[Purpose: This program aimed to strengthen village stakeholders’ understanding of village enterprises, identify local economic potential, and formulate development priorities for BUMKam Misyani in Tobati Village.Research Methodology: Program involved 14 participants using observation, interviews, socialization, mapping, discussions, questionnaires, descriptive and thematic analyses.Results: Four priorities emerged: clean water and drinking-water services, marine transportation fuel, sea-taxi services, and tourism based on nature and culture. All participants answered “yes” to questionnaire items concerning perceived understanding, institutional collaboration, and support for follow-up programs. These responses reflected positive perceptions rather than measured knowledge gains. Limited managerial competence, weak bookkeeping and accountability, and inactive business units constituted major barriers.Conclusions: The activity generated an initial participatory needs map and governance direction. Follow-up should prioritize management restructuring, business selection, operational procedures, transparent reporting, and phased mentoring.Limitations: Evaluation relied on a perception-based post-test without baseline measurement, involved few participants, and excluded enterprise managers from the main session.Contributions: The program offers a practical governance roadmap and illustrates the relevance of contemporary collective capabilities theory, linking participatory decision-making, stakeholder voice, and deliberative learning to coastal village enterprise revitalization.]]>
