Abstract

With the ever-increasing uncertainty of the impact of humans on the environment, the study of adaptive societal behavior has gained interest in seeking to actively limit disaster-related losses. Despite numerous studies on the role of social capital in Indonesian tourism, the extent to which community social capital adapts to social order changes due to events like the COVID-19 pandemic or earthquake shocks has not been thoroughly studied. This study explored the social capital of people in tourist village areas, specifically in Sambirejo Village, Indonesia, and how it supported collective action during the COVID-19 pandemic to enhance community resilience and in turn succeed as a tourist village. Sambirejo Village has been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in a decline in tourism visits and income, highlighting the importance of social capital in fostering resilience. The research utilized a quantitative approach, collecting data through a questionnaire and analyzing descriptive statistical results. The model construct was then built and tested using a Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis. The SEM analysis revealed the crucial role of government and community initiatives in fostering community resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic, emphasizing the need for well-placed policies to help communities increase their social capital and combat the pandemic effectively.

Kesatrian Village has received global attention for successfully changing the image of the slum area into one of the must-visit tourist destinations in Malang City. The application of the Pro-Poor Tourism (PPT) concept to create Kampung Tridi saw village residents participate in tourism activities.

Abstract

Tourism is one of the government's leading sectors that contributes significantly to the country's foreign exchange receipts. One of the strategies of the tourism sector to continue to trigger economic growth is to develop sustainable tourism through the Tourism Village program. Tourism village development requires the collective involvement of local communities to ensure the program's sustainability. The availability and utilization of social capital influence community participation in tourism development.  This study aims to identify how social capital affects community participation in developing the Bejijong Tourism Village program. The population in this study includes the heads of families of tourism actors, with a total sample of 279 households. The variables used are social capital variables consisting of social networks, trusts, social norms, and participation variables at the implementation stage.  The analysis used is the Structural Equation Model (SEM) to determine the constituent factors contributing to each variable, thereby facilitating an understanding of the specific factors that merit attention for improvement and those that should be upheld to optimize tourism performance. The results of the analysis show that social capital significantly influences community participation. The better the social capital in Bejijong Village, the more people will be willing to participate in developing tourism villages. The social capital variable with the highest influence on participation is the trust variable. Therefore, the community must uphold the optimality of factors influencing trust for the sustainability of tourism development.

Abstract

As rural tourism becomes a popular trend today, innovation in tourism development is needed to be sustainable and maintain the community's cultural values. Social capital is the basic capital of society for building networks and working together to achieve goals. Therefore, this research examines how social capital can contribute to tourism development innovation. The questionnaire as a research instrument was aimed at 248 families, and the results were analyzed using SmartPLS 3.0-type SEM software. The research results show that social capital originating from trust, norms, and community networks significantly affects innovation in Ponggok Village. This capital can accelerate the growth of innovation in village development. Village governments can provide discussion forums related to tourism, thereby enabling community involvement. Existing innovations must be maintained and optimized to create a competitive tourist village. Village governments must also focus on improving existing tourism services and fostering new ideas from the community.
