Abstract

The forest management strategies in Indonesia are starting to change from state-based forest management to community-based forest management. The changing of forest management strategies can be seen in the implementation of the Social Forestry Program at Kulon Progo Regency. This study aimed to know the strategies and benefits of community empowerment in managing protected forests by ecotourism. This research conducted on July – October 2019 in the forest farmer group of Mandiri at Kalibiru Village, Kulon Progo Regency. Data collection was done by several methods including (1) In-depth interview to the head of forest farmer group; (2) Focus group discussion with the committee of forest farmer group; (3) Field observation; and (4) Secondary data review. The data analyzed by descriptive method. The results of the study indicated that the forms of community empowerment strategies in protected forest management carried out by KTHKm Mandiri included: (1) Institutional management strategies through strong institutional governance of farmer groups; (2) Forest area management strategies through the application of the concepts of resources-based management, ecosystem-based management, and landscape-based management; (3) Forest business management strategy through the application of the concept of community-based ecotourism. The existence of Kalibiru Ecotourism has been proven to provide economic benefits to members of the group, as well as residents of the Kalibiru and surrounding communities, in the form of (1) profit sharing; (2) employment; (3) new business opportunities; and (4) social funding assistance. The existence of Kalibiru Ecotourism has also led to social changes in the residents of the Kalibiru and surrounding communities. These social changes included two dimensions, namely: (1) changes in orientation at the individual farmer level; (2) orientation changes at the farmer group level.

Abstract

Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) operating within rural communities frequently encounter significant hurdles in the effective implementation of food hygiene and sanitation protocols. This struggle is largely attributable to limited financial resources and a critical deficit in fundamental food safety knowledge. A critical gap exists in the understanding of relevant food safety legislation, which often results in non-compliance with significant implications for regulatory enforcement. In response to this pervasive need, a targeted training intervention was developed and executed for food SME operators in Kaliagung Village. The objective of the training was to empower participants by equipping them with the general principles of food hygiene and sanitation. The training employed an interactive methodology, strategically blending theoretical presentations with practical, site-specific self-assessments. The program was rigorously designed based on the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) CAC/RCP 1:2011, focusing on five critical domains: environmental sanitation, facility hygiene, personal hygiene, process control, and record-keeping. The effectiveness of the program was evaluated using pre- and post-training assessments to quantify changes in participants' knowledge and comprehension. The evaluation demonstrated a positive and substantial impact, with the average participant score on food hygiene knowledge increasing from 3.5 to 4.85 (using 5 scale). This statistically reflected increase in the average score validates the utility of the training activity. In conclusion, this program highlights the critical role of structured training in enhancing food safety practices within rural communities. By providing practical, standards-based knowledge, such interventions are vital for fostering a safer and more compliant food industry landscape in these key areas.
