<![CDATA[This study evaluates cultural heritage management and women's economic empowerment through the ‘Aisyiyah movement in Kotagede, Yogyakarta, utilizing the 6A Tourism Framework and United Nations Tourism (UN Tourism) sustainable tourism standards. Through qualitative participatory observation, the research finds that while the organization possesses strong social capital and significant historical assets, its management faces critical barriers in accessibility and supporting facilities. Physical constraints, such as poor drainage systems, restricted access for large-scale group vehicles, and supply chain inefficiencies for local Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), hinder the realization of sustainable tourism. Notably, the study identifies a lack of integrated prayer facilities (mushalla), accessible toilets, and efficient etalases for both silver crafts and local culinary specialties (oleh-oleh) as major sources of "time leakage" for visitors.
