Abstract

This study analyzes the application of circular economy principles in the development of marine tourism in Bone Regency, Indonesia, using a qualitative case study approach involving local government representatives, community members, and tourists. Data was collected through in-depth interviews and field observations to understand the integration of circular economy practices, including waste management, resource reuse, and local community empowerment. Findings highlight both opportunities and challenges in implementing sustainable tourism, such as limited funding and infrastructure. However, effective practices, such as community-led recycling initiatives and government support in waste treatment, underscore the potential for circular economy models to enhance environmental sustainability and local economic benefits. The study concludes that a circular economy framework, supported by multi-stakeholder collaboration, can provide a path toward sustainable marine tourism, offering insights for policymakers and researchers aiming to balance environmental and economic goals in tourism development.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze community-based ecotourism strategies to empower the local economy in Bone Regency. Using qualitative methods and a case study approach, this research involved 20 informants consisting of 10 domestic tourists, 5 tourism agency employees, and 5 members of the environmental community. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation, then analyzed thematically. The results showed that the implementation of community-based ecotourism strategies was able to have a positive impact on the local economy. Communities are actively involved in the management of ecotourism destinations, which not only increases their income but also strengthens awareness of the importance of preserving the environment. Community participation in environmental conservation and tourism management, such as waste management and ecosystem conservation, has proven to be an important factor in the success of ecotourism. In addition, the role of local government and the environmental community plays a significant role in supporting the sustainability and development of ecotourism. This study concludes that community-based ecotourism strategies can be an effective model of local economic empowerment, but further collaboration between the government, communities, and tourists is needed to improve social and environmental impacts sustainably.

Abstract

This study investigates public communication governance and its role in supporting the marketing of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Makassar City, focusing on multi-actor collaboration, participation dynamics, and communication effectiveness. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with government officials, MSME actors, supporting communities, and associations. Findings show a shift toward a more collaborative and participatory communication model, where MSMEs, communities, and government actors co-create strategies from planning to evaluation. The use of diverse communication channels—from social media and websites to informal networks—has improved MSMEs’ access to promotional programs, training, and policy information. Responsive feedback mechanisms and active stakeholder participation strengthen program relevance and effectiveness. However, persistent challenges remain, including digital literacy gaps, infrastructure limitations, and preferences for conventional communication. These findings underscore the need for adaptive, inclusive, and multi-layered communication strategies tailored to the diverse characteristics of urban MSMEs. The study recommends strengthening digital literacy, institutionalizing cross-sector collaboration, and conducting regular evaluations to sustain public communication innovations. By highlighting the strategic role of local communication governance, this research contributes to Indonesia’s broader agenda of enhancing MSME competitiveness and advancing an inclusive digital economy.
