Sikunang Village, which is located in Kejajar District, Wonosobo Regency, Central Java Province, has a very potential landscape. The Sikunang Village area is included in the Dieng Plateau area which has the potential for a mountainous landscape. One of them is a mountain in the Sikunang Village area, namely Mount Bismo. However, this potential has not been felt optimally by the residents of Sikunang Village. This is due to a lack of skills in managing tourist and climbing areas in the region. Apart from that, economic factors also influence the condition of the people in Sikunang Village, where some residents live below the poverty line and are unemployed. Responding to these problems, PT Geo Dipa Energi (Persero) Dieng Unit through its CSR program implemented a community empowerment program based on ecotourism development. The program entitled "Mount Bismo Ecotourism Development in Sikunang Village" is implemented by forming tourism awareness groups, developing tourism supporting infrastructure, and developing the capacity of tourism awareness groups. This program can increase capacity in managing mountain climbing tourism and increase income for group members, as well as preserving the environment in the Mount Bismo area.
