Abstract

This study aims to explore the role of Tari Baluse as a cultural heritage in empowering the local economy through the development of tourism based on local wisdom in Hilimondregeraya Tourism Village, South Nias. Tari Baluse is a traditional war dance rich in historical value, symbolizing courage and the cultural identity of the Nias people. In the context of tourism, performances of Tari Baluse serve as a major attraction for both domestic and international tourists. This research employs a qualitative and quantitative approach, with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and surveys with artists, local residents, and small business actors. The findings indicate that Tari Baluse significantly contributes to increasing community income, particularly through the growth of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) such as handicrafts, local culinary businesses, and tour guide services. The active participation of the community—especially women and youth—in culture-based creative economic activities also demonstrates a positive social impact. However, challenges remain, particularly in terms of limited infrastructure and promotional efforts. The study recommends strengthening local tourism governance, enhancing community capacity through training, and optimizing digital promotion as strategic steps toward sustainable economic development and cultural preservation.

Abstract

This study examines the potential of the creative economy in utilizing Hanjelin fruit (Coix lachryma-jobi L.) as a local souvenir at Baho Farm, Nias. Baho Farm, as a nature-based tourism and outbound destination, has significant opportunities to develop derivative products from local resources in order to enhance economic value and tourist attraction. Hanjelin fruit, which grows abundantly in Nias, possesses unique characteristics but has not yet been optimally utilized as a creative economic product. The objectives of this study are to identify the potential of Hanjelin as a raw material for souvenir products, analyze relevant production and marketing processes, and evaluate the impact of developing Hanjelin-based souvenirs on the local economy and the sustainability of tourism at Baho Farm. The research employs a qualitative approach using a case study method, involving in-depth interviews with Baho Farm managers, local artisans, and visitors, as well as participatory observation. The findings of this study are expected to provide strategic recommendations for Baho Farm and related stakeholders in developing Hanjelin into competitive, innovative, and sustainable souvenir products, while simultaneously strengthening the local cultural identity of Nias through the creative economy.
