Abstract

Sustainable heritage tourism increasingly depends on the capacity of local communities to act as effective cultural mediators, yet limited attention has been given to the role of foreign language competence as a mechanism of empowerment within heritage institutions. In many heritage destinations, tour guides are expected to communicate complex cultural meanings to international visitors, but insufficient linguistic resources may constrain their professional agency and the quality of heritage interpretation. This study aims to examine how foreign language capacity building functions as a form of community empowerment in a heritage tourism context, with specific reference to heritage tour guides at the Keraton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat, Indonesia. The study adopted a qualitative case study design. Data was collected through systematic observations of training sessions and guided tours, reflective discussions with participating guides, and analysis of training materials and institutional documents. The data were analyzed thematically, guided by empowerment theory and communicative competence theory. The findings indicate that foreign language training enhanced guides’ communicative confidence, interpretive depth, and intercultural awareness. Participants demonstrated greater flexibility in responding to visitor inquiries, improved narrative coherence in explaining cultural and historical meanings, and stronger perceptions of professional legitimacy as cultural representatives. While the training primarily supported psychological and social dimensions of empowerment, it contributed indirectly to cultural sustainability by strengthening heritage mediation practices. These findings suggest that foreign language capacity building has significant implications for sustainable heritage tourism and the operationalization of Sustainable Development Goal 11. Integrating language training into heritage management and community development initiatives can support more inclusive, high quality, and culturally grounded tourism practices.

Abstract

Background:  Media tend to portray state-owned scholarships and can influence public opinion in a positive, negative, or neutral way. However, the specific depiction of the LPDP scholarship, a prominent state-owned scholarship in Indonesia, requires closer examination. The image of the LPDP scholarship can be analyzed through the collocation of keywords related to LPDP and LPDP scholarships found in the CNN Indonesia news data corpus. The role of the media in forming a positive or negative image is then critically examined through critical discourse analysis. Methodology:  The method used in this study is critical discourse analysis using corpus tools. The data used are 77 news about LPDP Scholarships with a total of 26,335 tokens. The news text was analyzed with the help of a corpus tool in the form of the AntConc application to obtain word frequencies, collocations, and concordances. Findings:  The image of the LPDP Scholarship in CNN Indonesia news is first seen from the frequency of words that appear and are significant, meaning that CNN Indonesia tends to be specific in reporting the LPDP Scholarship by directly referring to the program it has. Second, the emergence of collocation tends to focus on news about the LPDP Scholarship even though there was one negative image related to the problems that occurred in 2020. Third, the emergence of concordance gives the meaning that CNN Indonesia tends to provide a positive image of news about the LPDP Scholarship. Conclusion:  The results of the study show that the frequency of words, collocations, and concordances that appear mean that the CNN Indonesia news media in reporting the LPDP Scholarship predominantly provides a positive image. The media tends to report specifically about the LPDP Scholarship, such as the registration and funding schemes. On the one hand, the media is neutral in reporting. This can be seen from how the media also portrays the conflict that occurred in the LPDP Scholarship, especially regarding the policies implemented. Originality:  This study uses LPDP news in 2014-2024 released by CNN Indonesia to determine the image of LPDP scholarships based on word frequency, collocation, and concordance.
