Abstract

This research examines the cultural and religious interactions between Muslim and Hindu communities in Makam Medana, North Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara. Using a qualitative method with a case study approach, data was collected through direct observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis with Fritjof Schuon's theory of social esotericism used as the basis for analysis. The results show that the Medana Tomb serves as an important space for social harmony, where both communities engage in shared spiritual and cultural practices. Through inner experiences that transcend religious, cultural and social boundaries, the tomb serves as a bridge that connects different religions through a universal understanding of divine truth that manifests in different outward forms. These interactions facilitate mutual understanding and respect, and contribute to the formation of an inclusive and harmonious society in North Lombok. This research concludes that Makam Medana offers a model of social harmony that is relevant in a multicultural context.

Abstract

This study integrates viewpoints from Vandana Shiva and Maria Mies to investigate Nubian women's responsibilities as agents of cultural, ecological, and linguistic sustainability within an ecofeminist framework. Three interconnected aspects are the subject of the study: their contributions to language preservation, ecological management, and cultural traditions. This study synthesizes knowledge from academic sources on Nubian women's adaptive tactics in the face of socio-ecological disturbances, including the relocation caused by the Aswan High Dam, through a qualitative literature review and thematic analysis. According to the research, Nubian women preserve intangible cultural heritage by striking a balance between modernity and customs like storytelling, rituals, and crafting. Their ecological roles, which include resource management, the use of natural materials, and sustainable agriculture techniques, show how important they are to preserving environmental equilibrium. Linguistically, Nubian women preserve their language through folklore, songs, and everyday communication, ensuring intergenerational transmission of cultural identity. This research underscores the interconnectedness of gender, culture, and ecology, providing a model for cultural resilience and sustainability in marginalized communities globally. The implications extend to broader discussions on sustainable development, gender studies, and strategies for integrating localized resilience into global challenges.

The involvement of fishermen in ecotourism activities has been proven to increase environmental awareness and provide significant economic benefits to the community. The results of this study can contribute to the development of a sustainable ecotourism model involving local communities, especially fishermen as the main actors. In addition, the results of this study can be a reference for the government and other stakeholders in formulating ecotourism development policies and strategies’ or if it will change the face of the case law as it currently stands.

It is considered unique, so many tourists visit. The arrival of tourists from various cultural backgrounds has been going on for more than four decades, to some extent influencing the daily lives of the people of Kampung Naga. The aim of this research is to describe local wisdom related to tourism in the Kampung Naga community. The formulation of the problem is how do the people of Kampung Naga construct local tourism wisdom, and what form does it take? To answer this, a qualitative description method was used, through the stages of observation, interviews and interpretation. The results of the analysis show that the people of Kampung Naga construct local tourism wisdom which is the result of interactions between the culture of the community and the culture of tourists, as well as tourism development carried out in their village. Local tourism wisdom is based on harmonizing relations between tourists and local residents based on kinship and tourism management based on mutual cooperation.

Abstract

The literary tendency to map and position indigenous people as passive objects can be seen in three domains: (1) a study that maps the identity of indigenous people as something “authentic”; (2) subordinated by dominant groups; and (3) vulnerable to change. This paper places indigenous people as the subject matter where the subject’s perspective is accommodated in understanding their ideas and choices of attitudes and ways of life. This paper aims to (1) answer the question of how the literature defines the identity of indigenous people; (2) showing the misconceptions built by various literatures in interpreting the identity of indigenous people; (3) showing that stereotypes about indigenous people as a construction of thought from those in power. The data source for this article comes from literature in the form of journal articles and books. Two things can be reflected from this study of indigenous people: 1) the identity of indigenous people has been defined unilaterally by other people (outsiders); 2) the tendency of the literature to place indigenous people as passive objects that are static, accepting fate and not contributing to civilization.

Abstract

This research explores the empowerment process for women former migrant workers through community-based education in the Desa Peduli Buruh Migran (DESBUMI) community in Jember Regency, Indonesia. It aims to examine community-based empowerment concepts and strategies to inform policies supporting women former migrant workers. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were gathered through observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation, followed by analysis through data reduction, presentation, and verification. The findings outline three empowerment stages: awareness, capacity building, and empowerment. In capacity building, an experiential learning cycle is used, tailored to the potential and needs of these women. Community interactions foster collective learning and mutual support, enhancing knowledge, skills, participation, and economic independence among former migrant workers. Additionally, the DESBUMI community provides a strategic platform for promoting local economic development. The research concludes that community-based education effectively strengthens both individual capacity and social networks, suggesting this model as a viable framework for empowering women in similar migrant worker communities across Indonesia.
