Masyarakat penyandang disabilitas diberikan peran dalam memajukan desa dengan terlibat dalam program budaya dan kesenian. Peran ini menciptakan masyarakat penyandang disabilitas mampu mandiri untuk mencukupi kebutuhan hidup dan diterima oleh masyarakat desa. Namun perdebatan masih berlanjut tatkala cara pandang masyarakat yang kerap mengindentikkan penyandang disabilitas dengan ketidakmampuan untuk bekerja. Kondisi ini menyebabkan mereka sulit mencapai kemandirian secara ekonomi. Terlebih, untuk lingkungan masyarakat pedesaan, penyandang disabilitas masih sering dianggap sebagai kutukan dan aib keluarga. Hal ini menyebabkan mereka mengalami gangguan secara psikologis dan kesulitan untuk bersosialisasi. Untuk itu, tawaran menarik untuk menepis stigma diskriminatif tersebut membutuhkan langkah strategis pemerintah desa secara berkelanjutan.

Abstract

This article explores the changing of community development process that conducted by a private sector in Dusun Kalongan. As a consequence, empowerment cannot be realized, when the society still considered as a unit program in empowerment process. For instance, this study uses qualitative method for demonstrating its transformation of community development procedure that was applied. Data was collected through interviews that its validity was examined by triangulation technique. Findings feature the society that able to recognize the local potentials and it also generates consciousness to develop the processing of banana product in which gives benefit for economy sector. This product necessarily becomes a new business potential for residents. In fact, these commodities were not developed very well both the capacity of society to manage processing bananas that are restricted and the ways of creating new product to increase commodity for new business. This happens because people are not able to map the potential and marketing segmentation of their product. This means that people are given full strength to know their potential but are not able to market the product that have been made. It has been counterproductive to the term powerfulness in the community. Therefore, this research recommends the evaluation of programs taking into account the cognitive and effective aspects of the training and community organizing process.Paper ini mengeksplorasi proses perubahan pemberdayaan masyarakat yang dilakukan oleh sektor swasta di Dusun Kalongan. Sebagai konsekuensinya, pemberdayaan tidak dapat berjalan jika masyarakat masih dianggap sebagai sasaran program (obyek). Untuk itu, studi ini menggunakan metode kualitatif untuk membuktikan adanya perubahan proses pemberdayaan yang telah dilakukan tersebut. Data dikumpulkan melalui proses wawancara dengan pengujian validitasnya menggunakan teknik trianggulasi. Hasil studi ini menunjukkan bahwa masyarakat mampu mengenali potensi lokal dan dapat menciptakan kesadaran untuk mengembangkan olahan produk pisang sehingga memiliki daya jual. Produk ini dapat menjadi potensi bisnis masyarakat lokal. Namun faktanya, komoditas tersebut tidak dapat berkembang dengan baik karena kemampuan masyarakat masih terbatas pada cara mengolah pisang sebagai bahan utama pembuatan komoditas bisnis baru. Hal ini terjadi karena masyarakat tidak mampu memetakan potensi dan segmentasi pemasaran dari hasil produknya. Ini artinya, masyarakat diberikan kekuatan penuh untuk mengenal potensinya namun tidak mampu memasarkan produk yang telah dibuat. Ini telah mengalami kontraproduktif dengan istilah powerfulness di dalam komunitas. Untuk itu, riset ini merekomendasikan evaluasi program dengan mempertimbangkan aspek kognitif dan afektif dari proses pelatihan dan pengorganisasian masyarakat.

This article aims to provide another perspective on the concept of community empowerment by utilizing local potential with cultural value combined with a tourism-based empowerment pattern. Herbal medicine as a hereditary heritage in Rejowinangun village is optimized for marketing in the concept of a tourist village, thereby increasing its economic value in a modern society. To achieve this goal, this study uses a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach to capture the context of changes experienced by the community to see the significance of the empowerment model. The results of this study indicate that the process of developing the production of herbal medicine as a processed product of herbal plants is produced through the use of land owned by the community. The expertise of the Rejowinangun village community in concocting traditional herbal medicine is produced from hereditary inheritance. As a form of re-actualization in the marketing system, modern methods were introduced, from the concept of a tourist village to marketing herbal medicine in the form of instant packaging. Modernization steps in all aspects as part of empowerment have an impact on increasing the economic value of these products, so that they have an impact on improving the community in the economic, social, cultural, environmental and health fields. The integration between the concept of cultural preservation and modern management in community development that takes place in the village of Rejowinangun has proven to be effective and efficient, so that this method can be a new alternative in group-based community development that still preserves local traditions and keeps up with the times.
