Abstract

Community-based tourism development is one of the effective strategies to increase the economic potential and welfare of local communities. As a model for tourism development, tourist villages prioritize cultural values, local wisdom, and environmental sustainability by actively involving the local community in tourism activities. This concept aims to promote sustainable and inclusive tourism, where local communities directly benefit through the provision of tourism services and products, such as homestays, handicrafts, traditional cuisine, and cultural attractions. Mekarsari Gambung, as one of the tourist villages developed through the Bandung State Polytechnic's Fostered Village program, exemplifies how tourism management can be carried out using a community-based approach. In its development, educational tourism packages like EduTea, EduCoffee, and Dairy Farm Half Day Trip are designed not only to provide tourism experiences for visitors but also to strengthen the skills and knowledge of local communities. Community involvement in these tourism activities can open up new job opportunities, increase income, and encourage the preservation of village culture and environment. The fostered village program also supports the development of human resource capacity through training and mentoring, ensuring the continuous improvement of tourism service quality. Thus, the development of sustainable and community-based tourism tourist villages provides long-term benefits for village development and community welfare.

Abstract

This study analyzes the potential of Community-Based Tourism (CBT) within a semi-urban village context, addressing a gap in the tourism literature that predominantly focuses on rural areas. Using an integrative qualitative approach, the research combines participatory mapping, in-depth interviews, and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) in Ciwaruga Village, West Bandung Regency. The study triangulates perspectives from three local pillars: government, community, and academia. Data collection involved 10 key informants, approximately 20 FGD participants, and four rounds of field observations. Findings reveal that semi-urban tourism relies on scattered "micro-attractions" (natural, cultural, and artificial) rather than a single iconic site. While community readiness is characterized as "emergent", marked by high enthusiasm but low institutional structure, the study identifies that participatory mapping acts as a social technology to bridge this gap. The research concludes that a tri-pillar collaborative governance model is essential to transform semi-urban complexity into sustainable tourism destinations.
