Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has caused many economic activities and workforce productivity to decline. The tourism sector is a dynamic sector because it can involve many people and revitalize various business fields. Considering the strategic position of the tourism sector, research is necessary to determine its impact on the economy post-Covid-19. The objectives of this study include analyzing key sectors against the 2016 Central Java IO Table to identify sectors with high backward and forward linkages as considerations for economic recovery after the Covid-19 pandemic. The 2016 Central Java IO Table and information on Central Java tourist expenditure were used to analyze the impact of tourism sector demand. The results of the sectoral backward linkage analysis show that only the Food and Beverage Service sector is included in the top 10. Meanwhile, the sectoral forward linkage analysis found that the Food and Beverage Service sector and the Information and Communication Services sector are included in the top 10. The analysis of the impact of final demand on all tourism sectors in Central Java in 2021 reached 16,663,997.66 million rupiah.

Abstract

Desa Banyubiru, Kecamatan Banyubiru, Kabupaten Semarang, merupakan wilayah dengan potensi wisata alam yang besar, terutama melalui keberadaan Rawa Pening dan lanskap perbukitan yang indah. Namun, potensi tersebut belum termanfaatkan secara optimal karena kegiatan wisata masih didominasi oleh wisata alam pasif sehingga wisatawan cenderung hanya singgah dalam waktu singkat. Kondisi ini berdampak pada rendahnya lama tinggal wisatawan dan terbatasnya manfaat ekonomi bagi masyarakat lokal. Untuk menjawab permasalahan tersebut, dilakukan program pengabdian masyarakat dengan menginisiasi konsep Fun Sport Tourism sebagai strategi diversifikasi atraksi wisata. Metode pelaksanaan program dilakukan secara partisipatif dengan melibatkan masyarakat melalui tahapan inisiasi, sosialisasi, focus group discussion (FGD), pendampingan penyusunan rencana, pelatihan dan praktek, serta pendampingan implementasi program. Hasil pengabdian menunjukkan bahwa masyarakat memperoleh pemahaman baru tentang pentingnya diversifikasi wisata, terbentuk kesepakatan kegiatan prioritas seperti fun bike, trail run, festival permainan tradisional di Rawa Pening. Selain itu, tersusun rencana jangka pendek dan menengah untuk mendukung pengembangan pariwisata berkelanjutan. Uji coba kegiatan fun bike juga berhasil menarik wisatawan dari luar daerah serta meningkatkan penjualan produk UMKM lokal. Dengan demikian, inisiasi Fun Sport Tourism terbukti efektif dalam menambah ragam kegiatan wisata, meningkatkan keterlibatan masyarakat, serta membuka peluang ekonomi baru di Desa Banyubiru. Ke depan, keberhasilan program ini memerlukan kesinambungan pendampingan, penguatan promosi digital, dan kolaborasi lintas pihak agar dapat berkembang menjadi ikon pariwisata berbasis olahraga di Kabupaten Semarang.

Abstract

This study analyzes the influence of macroeconomic variables on poverty levels in Central Java Province during the 2018–2023 period, which captures the pre-pandemic, pandemic, and post-pandemic phases. Using panel data from 34 regencies/cities and employing a Fixed Effect Model (FEM), this research examines the effects of the open unemployment rate (TPT), minimum wage, Human Development Index (HDI), and Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) on poverty. The results show that TPT does not have a significant effect on poverty, while minimum wage has a positive and significant effect, and HDI and GRDP have significant negative effects on poverty. These findings indicate that improvements in human development and inclusive economic growth are crucial for poverty reduction, while minimum wage policies may generate unintended short-term effects, particularly in regions dominated by informal employment. This study contributes by highlighting post-pandemic regional dynamics and the importance of inclusive development strategies in addressing poverty under conditions of economic uncertainty.
