Abstract

The digital economy era has transformed various sectors, including tourism. Digital technology enables companies to operate more efficiently and reach global markets more easily. Digital transformation has become an urgent necessity for the tourism industry to remain competitive. This research aims to explore how a strategic approach to digitalization can be applied by tourism businesses to enhance their global competitiveness in the digital economy era. The research employs a literature review method with a qualitative approach. Data were collected from Google Scholar with publication dates ranging from 2011 to 2024. The study results indicate that digitalization has become imperative for tourism businesses in facing global dynamics in the current digital economy era. More than just the use of information technology, digitalization involves a comprehensive transformation of business processes, from marketing to the tourist experience at destinations. Successful examples of tourism digitalization in Indonesia, such as Wonderful Indonesia and online ticket booking platforms, demonstrate significant potential in enhancing global competitiveness and strengthening the local tourism industry

Abstract

This study explores the roles of women in development in West Sulawesi Province, Indonesia, focusing on three key dimensions: health, education, and employment. The research was motivated by ongoing gender disparities observed between women and men in these areas. The novelty of this study lies in its use of the most recent time series data from 2019 to 2023, the application of member-checking for data validation, and its status as the first comprehensive and updated study addressing this topic in the context of West Sulawesi. Employing a descriptive-qualitative approach, the study analyzed five-year data sourced directly from the Central Bureau of Statistics of West Sulawesi Province, supplemented by relevant previous research. Data validation was conducted through member checking and prolonged observation techniques to ensure credibility. The collected data were grouped and analyzed, then presented through statistical charts supported by narrative explanations. The findings reveal that in the health domain—measured through life expectancy—women generally exhibited better health outcomes than men. However, in the realm of education, as reflected in indicators such as expected years of schooling and average years of schooling, women significantly lagged behind their male counterparts. This educational gap correlates with employment outcomes, where female labor force participation remained notably lower than that of men. These findings carry important implications for public awareness and policy formulation. They highlight the critical importance of addressing educational inequality and serve as a foundation for future research, as well as a call to action for government stakeholders to design more inclusive and gender-responsive development policies.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis implementasi Blue Economy pada sektor kelautan dalam upaya meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat nelayan, dengan studi kasus di Pangkalan dan Pendaratan Pelelangan Ikan (PPI) Mamuju. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif melalui observasi, wawancara mendalam dengan nelayan, pemerintah daerah, dan masyarakat sekitar, serta dokumentasi. Data sekunder diperoleh dari dokumen resmi dan laporan terkait kebijakan Blue Economy. Analisis data dilakukan dengan triangulasi sumber untuk menjamin validitas dan reliabilitas temuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa implementasi Blue Economy di PPI Mamuju belum memberikan dampak signifikan terhadap kesejahteraan nelayan. Hambatan utama meliputi biaya tinggi alat tangkap ramah lingkungan, berkurangnya hasil tangkapan, keterlibatan masyarakat yang masih terbatas, serta lemahnya program pemberdayaan nelayan. Rekomendasi penelitian ini menekankan pentingnya peningkatan pelatihan langsung di laut, dukungan biaya operasional, penguatan program pemberdayaan, pengelolaan sumber daya laut yang lebih adil, serta perbaikan infrastruktur penyimpanan ikan.
