Abstract

 This study examines the implementation of circular economy practices and their contribution to social innovation and strengthening the local economy in Bone Regency, South Sulawesi. The research was motivated by the high volume of agricultural and fishery waste that has not been optimally managed, as well as the potential of inorganic materials that can be reused as products with commercial value. This study employs a qualitative approach with a case study design, involving 15 informants comprising micro-entrepreneurs, village officials, community leaders, youth groups, and community facilitators. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document reviews, and analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman. The research findings revealed six main themes: utilization of agricultural and fishery waste, reuse of inorganic materials, community collaboration, environmental education, regulatory support, and institutional challenges. The results show that circular economy practices in Bone evolve through, supported by local institutions and cultural values of cooperation. These practices diversify income, raise environmental awareness, and create a more inclusive social ecosystem, though challenges remain in digital marketing and institutional capacity. The study highlights the importance of multi-stakeholder collaboration and adaptive policy support to sustain the circular economy at the local level and demonstrates its potential as a replicable model for other rural areas in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study investigates how blue tourism contributes to community welfare in Bone Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Despite the region’s rich marine and cultural resources, such potential has not optimally utilized to support sustainable development. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis involving 15 local stakeholders, including tourism actors, village officials, community leaders, and micro- entrepreneurs. The findings highlight that local communities play a central role in developing blue tourism by mobilizing natural and cultural assets such as beaches, sunset spots, seafood cuisine, and homestays. Youth and women emerge as the main drivers of promotion and small-scale businesses, while village governments act as facilitators despite budget constraints. Key challenges include limited infrastructure, poor accessibility, and weak promotion, which restrict the sector’s growth. Nevertheless, blue tourism has created new livelihood opportunities, diversified household incomes, and strengthened social cohesion in coastal communities. This study concludes that community-based blue tourism has significant potential to improve economic and social welfare, but requires stronger institutional support, infrastructure investment, and inclusive governance. The findings contribute to the literature on the blue economy and sustainable tourism by emphasizing the integration of local participation, cultural values, and multi-stakeholder collaboration in coastal development.

Abstract

The growing waste management problem, especially in developing countries, poses significant environmental, social, and economic challenges. This qualitative study, using an ethnographic approach, investigates community perceptions of waste, recycling’s potential as an income source, and innovative recycling strategies in Bone Regency, South Sulawesi. Bone Regency, a region with limited waste infrastructure and high levels of waste pollution, faces unique social and economic challenges in sustainable waste management. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observations, and document analysis involving community members and the Community-Based Solid Waste Management (CBSWM) initiative. Data analysis involved thematic coding to identify key patterns in perceptions, challenges, and outcomes. The findings reveal that community perceptions of waste shifted positively as they recognized its economic potential. Innovative strategies, including community-based waste management and social entrepreneurship, successfully generated income and promoted sustainable practices. Products such as organic compost, recycled plastic crafts, and construction materials demonstrate economic opportunities, though market access and scalability remain critical challenges. The study concludes that infrastructure improvements, expanded market opportunities, and policy support are essential for sustainable waste management in the Bone Regency. Future research should explore scalable recycling models, environmental impacts, and policy implications to support broader applications in similar regions.

Abstract

Digital transformation has become a central reform agenda in public administration, particularly in improving the quality and credibility of local government services. In decentralized governance systems, citizen trust is a crucial outcome that determines the effectiveness and sustainability of digital governance initiatives. This study examines the effect of digital transformation on citizen trust in local government services in Awangpone District, Bone Regency, Indonesia. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected through a structured survey administered to 412 residents who had accessed local government services within the previous twelve months. Digital transformation was operationalized as a multidimensional construct encompassing service availability, ease of use, system reliability, responsiveness, and perceived efficiency, while citizen trust was measured through indicators of institutional competence, transparency, procedural fairness, integrity, and overall confidence. Statistical analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression. The findings indicate that digital transformation has a significant positive effect on citizen trust in local government services. The results suggest that the quality of digital service implementation plays a critical role in shaping institutional trust at the district level. This study contributes to the public administration and digital governance literature by providing district-level empirical evidence from a developing-country context, addressing the limited focus of previous studies on metropolitan or national settings. The findings offer practical implications for local governments seeking to strengthen citizen trust through inclusive and effective digital transformation strategies.
