Abstract

Abstrak Pawon sebagai bagian dari teknologi tradisional Jawa memiliki nilai budaya, sosial, dan ekonomi yang masih lestari hingga kini. Di Dusun Cakruan, pawon dipertahankan tidak hanya sebagai dapur, tetapi juga sebagai ruang interaksi sosial, transmisi pengetahuan antar-generasi, serta penguat identitas budaya lokal. Elemen khas seperti luweng menunjukkan keterpaduan antara fungsi teknis dan simbolik dalam aktivitas domestik maupun UMKM kuliner. Meskipun demikian, pawon sebagai Objek Pemajuan Kebudayaan (OPK) dalam kategori Pengetahuan Tradisional belum sepenuhnya terdokumentasi dalam Pokok Pikiran Kebudayaan Daerah (PPKD). Pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini menggunakan pendekatan etnografis melalui observasi partisipatif, wawancara mendalam, serta dokumentasi visual guna memahami makna ruang pawon dan urgensi pencatatan formalnya. Hasilnya adalah sebuah video dokumenter yang berjudul “Pawon – Warisan Tradisi Budaya Arsitektural Masyarakat Jawa” yang bisa disaksikan di https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEZDK0Sd1rg&t=51s secara daring. Kata kunci: Pawon; Pengetahuan Tradisional; Pelestarian Budaya; Video Dokumenter; Jambuwer Abstract Pawon—as part of traditional Javanese technology—embodies enduring cultural, social, and economic values. In Cakruan Hamlet, the pawon is preserved not merely as a kitchen but also as a space for social interaction, intergenerational knowledge transmission, and the strengthening of local cultural identity. Distinct elements such as the luweng (traditional stove) demonstrate the integration of technical and symbolic functions within both domestic activities and small-scale culinary enterprises. Nevertheless, pawon as an Object of Cultural Advancement (Objek Pemajuan Kebudayaan, OPK) in the category of Traditional Knowledge has not yet been fully documented in the Regional Cultural Master Plan (Pokok Pikiran Kebudayaan Daerah, PPKD). This community service program employs an ethnographic approach through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and visual documentation to explore the meaning of the pawon space and the urgency of its formal recognition. The outcome is a documentary video titled “Pawon – The Architectural Cultural Heritage of Javanese Society”, which can be accessed online at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEZDK0Sd1rg&t=51s Keywords: Pawon; Traditional Knowledge; Cultural Preservation; Documentary Video; Jambuwer

Abstract

A number of studies have examined elderly care, yet most narratives tend to position older people as dependent on their families, particularly their children. Such perspectives often overlook the complexity of lived experiences, as well as the challenges and adaptive strategies that the elderly develop in navigating vulnerability. This paper therefore addresses three main questions: how do the elderly transform and endure conditions of vulnerability? To what extent can they rely on their children? And what happens when such dependency is no longer possible? This research explores the experiences of elderly people in Gotong Village, Central Java, focusing on the dynamics of care and life transitions. The analysis draws on Viktor Turner’s concept of liminality, which outlines three phases of transition: preliminal, liminal, and postliminal. The findings show that the preliminal phase is marked by a disengagement from previous social roles and relationships. During the liminal phase, the elderly experience ambiguity, including unclear social roles, ongoing negotiation between formal and informal care, and uncertainty about the future. This phase highlights how the elderly are not only vulnerable but also actively navigating and making sense of their changing circumstances. In the postliminal phase, they enter a stage of reaggregation under new conditions, often shaped by cultural values, particularly notions of self-acceptance. Overall, the experiences of the elderly should not be understood solely in terms of dependency, but as dynamic processes involving negotiation, adaptation, and meaning-making in the face of vulnerability.
