Abstract

As one of the world's megadiverse countries, Indonesia holds vast potential for developing nature-based tourism, particularly avitourism. This study examines the birdwatching ecotourism potential of Tebet Eco Park, an urban green space in South Jakarta, by analyzing bird species' diversity, richness, dominance, and evenness within the park. Bird surveys were conducted from October to December 2024 using standardized observation methods along designated transects. A total of 24 bird species from 21 families were recorded. The Shannon-Wiener diversity index (H' = 2.46) and the Margalef richness index (R = 3.44) indicate moderate species diversity and community stability. Streptopelia chinensis and Pycnonotus aurigaster were the most dominant species, while Zosterops melanurus and Psittacula alexandri were identified as species of conservation concern. Several birds, such as Nectarinia jugularis, were noted for their colorful plumage or distinctive vocalizations, making them attractive for recreational birdwatching. The findings demonstrate that Tebet Eco Park has strong potential to be developed as a sustainable, accessible, and educational birdwatching ecotourism destination within an urban setting.

Abstract

Edutourism is gaining momentum globally as a transformative learning paradigm that integrates education, tourism, and socio-cultural development. Unlike traditional study tours, edutourism emphasizes experiential learning, critical reflection, and contextual immersion. In Indonesia, however, the development of edutourism is hindered by fragmented regulations, geographical disparities, and limited institutional capacity. This study uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and bibliometric analysis of 88 peer-reviewed articles published between 2016 and 2025, sourced from Scopus and Google Scholar, to identify key trends in global edutourism practices. The analysis reveals seven thematic clusters: ecological awareness, governance, rural resilience, cultural identity, spatial efficiency, social impact, and policy innovation. Findings suggest that successful edutourism models globally are driven by cross-sectoral policy integration, collaborative governance, and pedagogical alignment with local contexts. In Indonesia, overcoming challenges such as uneven infrastructure and funding gaps requires a phased, locally grounded approach. To advance edutourism, pilot-based strategies that emphasize decentralization, digital integration, and alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) offer a more effective path forward than national mandates.
