<![CDATA[Timampu in East Luwu has rich lakefront and cultural assets, yet its potential for halal ecotourism and community-based MSMEs remains underutilized, with weak local institutions and fragmented collaboration among village government, university, and industry partners. This community service program aimed to strengthen halal ecotourism governance and community MSMEs through an Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach to promote more inclusive and sustainable community empowerment. Participatory ABCD stages—inkulturasi, discovery, dream, design, and implementation—were applied using focus group discussions, asset mapping, village dreaming workshops, mentoring for halal MSMEs, and reflective evaluation with youth, women’s groups, and village institutions. The intervention produced a collectively agreed village dream map, a draft governance structure and work plan for a tourism group, initial standard operating procedures for services and cleanliness, strengthened halal MSME business practices, and a more synergistic partnership between Timampu Village, UIN Palopo, and PT Vale.]]>
