| dc.description.abstract | In the development of tourist villages themselves, the participation of local
communities is one of the supporters of the success of the development of tourist
villages. This is due to the role of local communities who have a better
understanding of the social environment, customs, culture, and habits of the village.
Punden Rejo Village, Tanjung Morawa District is one of the villages that was
initiated as a Tourist Village in Deli Serdang Regency in 2022 with the geographical
conditions of a large and beautiful rice field area. This study aims to examine the
extent of community participation in the development of Punden Rejo Tourist
Village, Tanjung Morawa District. This study uses tourism indicators based on
community participation by Suansri (2003), namely Nature and Culture,
Community Organization, Management, and Learning. The research method used
in this study is descriptive research with a qualitative approach.
Data collection is used with interview, observation, documentation, and
literature study techniques. The data collection technique uses purposive sampling
techniques to obtain more in-depth information in the study. The informants who
were strengthened as one of the research instruments in it include the Punden Rejo
Village Government, Punden Rejo Tourism Management, Punden Rejo Village
Tourism Awareness Group (POKDARWIS), and the Local Community of Punden
Rejo Village.
The results of the study show that: 1. Nature and Culture, where
environmental maintenance in this tourist village is still running well but in cultural
preservation it is not visible in it. 2. Community Organization, the participation of
the local community of Punden Rejo Village is low in the development of Punden
Rejo Tourism Village because the level of public awareness of tourism potential in
the development of tourist villages is relatively low. 3. Management, where the role
of the government in the development of Punden Rejo Tourism Village based on
community participation has been implemented. 4. Learning, where socialization
has been carried out but not on a maximum scale so that it requires re-socialization
to form the understanding and knowledge of the local community of Punden Rejo
Village in the development of Punden Rejo Tourism Village.
