Abstract

Business tourism, particularly the Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) sector, has played a crucial role in enhancing the competitiveness of tourism destinations. This study analyzed the role of business tourism in strengthening Medan’s destination competitiveness from the perspective of students in the Tourism Study Program at Universitas Katolik Santo Thomas. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative surveys with students and qualitative interviews with industry practitioners and academics. The findings indicated that while Medan’s MICE infrastructure is relatively adequate, it remains suboptimal for attracting large-scale international events. The destination’s promotional strategies were found to be ineffective, and stakeholder collaboration lacked cohesion. Students were identified as having significant potential to support business tourism digitalization through technology-driven marketing innovations. The ABDIK (Business Tourism Digital Activation by Students) concept was introduced as a novel approach to empower students in MICE development. The study concluded that business tourism is a strategic driver for destination competitiveness but requires stronger synergy among the government, industry, academia, and local communities to achieve sustainable growth.

Abstract

Perkembangan pariwisata perkotaan semakin mendorong pengelolaan ruang terbuka hijau sebagai objek wisata yang ramah lingkungan, inklusif, dan berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi minat wisatawan terhadap ruang terbuka hijau perkotaan di Kota Medan dan menganalisis faktor-faktor utama yang memengaruhi preferensi kunjungan ke taman umum. Pendekatan kuantitatif deskriptif digunakan, dengan menggunakan kuesioner yang disebarkan kepada 100 responden yang mengunjungi taman kota seperti Taman Ahmad Yani, Taman Cadika, dan Hutan Kota USU. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kebersihan, kenyamanan, aksesibilitas, dan nilai estetika merupakan penentu utama yang membentuk minat wisatawan. Ruang terbuka hijau tidak hanya dianggap sebagai area rekreasi tetapi juga sebagai ruang refleksi dan sosial bagi masyarakat perkotaan. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan agar pemerintah daerah dan pengelola destinasi meningkatkan praktik pengelolaan berkelanjutan dan mempromosikan ruang terbuka hijau sebagai komponen integral dari pengembangan pariwisata hijau perkotaan. Hasilnya diharapkan dapat berkontribusi pada kebijakan perencanaan tata ruang perkotaan dan memperkuat upaya lokal menuju pariwisata berkelanjutan.

Abstract

This study explores the dynamics of cultural commodification in the tourism development of the Karo region in North Sumatra, Indonesia, an area rich in traditional architecture, rituals, oral arts, and symbolic textiles. Despite its cultural vibrancy, the region faces increasing pressures from tourism growth and digital media exposure, which have led to the transformation of cultural expressions for commercial consumption. The research focuses on how these commodification processes reshape cultural meanings, alter community agency, and challenge the sustainability of Karo cultural identity. The study aims to classify the forms of cultural commodification in Karo tourism and assess their implications for cultural preservation. Using a qualitative methodology, the research integrates a systematic review of literature, analysis of tourism-related documents, and examination of digital cultural representations on platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. The analysis identifies three forms of commodification: (1) performative commodification, where cultural ceremonies and performances are adapted for tourists; (2) visual commodification, where Karo culture is aestheticized in digital media; and (3) material commodification, seen in the commercialization of cultural symbols like Uis Gara motifs. While these practices create economic opportunities, they also risk diminishing cultural depth and authenticity. The study concludes that enhanced cultural governance, community participation, and responsible creative economy development are crucial for long-term cultural sustainability.

Abstract

Pengembangan destinasi wisata daerah merupakan salah satu strategi penting dalam memperkuat daya saing pariwisata sekaligus mendorong pertumbuhan ekonomi lokal yang berkelanjutan. Danau Kelapa Gading sebagai destinasi wisata buatan di Kabupaten Asahan memiliki potensi lanskap danau yang menarik, aksesibilitas yang relatif mudah, serta peluang pengembangan ekonomi masyarakat sekitar. Namun demikian, potensi tersebut belum didukung oleh pengelolaan destinasi yang optimal dan terintegrasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi kondisi eksisting Danau Kelapa Gading serta mengidentifikasi potensi pengembangannya sebagai destinasi wisata unggulan Kabupaten Asahan berdasarkan komponen destinasi wisata. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui observasi lapangan, wawancara mendalam dengan pemangku kepentingan terpilih, serta studi dokumentasi. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan model interaktif Miles, Huberman, dan Saldaña yang meliputi tahap reduksi data, penyajian data, penarikan kesimpulan, dan verifikasi melalui triangulasi sumber. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa daya tarik utama Danau Kelapa Gading terletak pada keindahan lanskap danau, keberadaan pulau kecil di tengah danau, serta aksesibilitas yang strategis dari pusat kota. Namun demikian, pengembangan destinasi masih menghadapi berbagai keterbatasan, terutama pada aspek amenitas seperti fasilitas parkir, sanitasi, pusat informasi wisata, serta layanan keselamatan dan kebersihan. Aktivitas wisata yang tersedia juga masih bersifat terbatas dan belum dikembangkan menjadi produk wisata tematik yang terstruktur. Penelitian ini menegaskan perlunya peningkatan kualitas fasilitas, diversifikasi aktivitas wisata, penguatan promosi, serta pemberdayaan masyarakat melalui kolaborasi multi-pihak guna mewujudkan pengelolaan Danau Kelapa Gading sebagai destinasi wisata yang berdaya saing dan berkelanjutan.
