ANALISIS STAKEHOLDER DALAM PENGEMBANGAN PARIWISATA BERKELANJUTAN DI PULAU DERAWAN

Abstract

This research aims to conduct stakeholder analysis in the development of sustainable tourism on Derawan Island. Derawan Island, which is located in Berau Regency, East Kalimantan, is a tourism destination that is rich in underwater natural beauty and beaches. Sustainable tourism development on Derawan Island requires a deep understanding of the various parties involved or interested (stakeholders). The research method used is a case study with a qualitative approach. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with various parties involved in tourism development on Derawan Island, such as local government, tourism entrepreneurs, local communities and non-governmental organizations that care about the environment. Apart from that, an analysis of documents related to tourism policies and regulations at the local and national level was also carried out. The research results show that there are various parties who have an interest in developing Derawan Island tourism, including the central government, regional government, Tourism Awareness Group (Pokdarwis), tourism managers, and environmental institutions. Stakeholder analysis identifies interests, strengths and relationships between parties to form a holistic understanding of the dynamics of tourism development on Derawan Island. Local governments have a central role in formulating policies and regulations that support sustainable tourism. Tourism entrepreneurs have an important role in providing economic contributions, but this needs to be balanced with social and environmental responsibility. Local communities have interests related to cultural and environmental preservation, while environmental institutions have a monitoring and advocacy role to ensure the sustainability of the island's ecosystem. With a deep understanding of stakeholders and the dynamics of interaction between them, this research contributes to designing a sustainable tourism development strategy on Derawan Island. Policy implications include strengthening the government's role in tourism management, establishing partnerships between government, entrepreneurs and local communities, as well as implementing environmentally friendly practices to maintain the sustainability of Derawan Island as a tourism destination.
