“…Supporting entrepreneurship by local magistrates based on the proper use of protected species and habitats should be considered one of the priorities of the sustainable development policy (Guzal-Dec, 2016).The development of ecotourism and organic farming seems to be particularly promising here, which can be treated as a specific protection tool by promoting a positive human impact on the environment, as well as a way to increase the level of environmental education while improving the material conditions of farm owners (McKinney, 2016;Brodzińska et al, 2020). However, the introduction of such solutions requires the cooperation of local authorities with the public sector and joint involvement in the implementation of relevant projects (Gios et al, 2006).There is untapped potential in this regard in Poland, as farm owners have so far invested less in tourism than in other nonagricultural economic activities (Zioło and Jaworska, 2015).…”

Purpose:The aim of the study was to check whether in recent years there have been changes affecting selected, important aspects of managing Natura 2000 areas at the local level towards their more effective protection, and whether the attitude of local authorities to these forms of protection as a potential factor stimulating the socio-economic development of communes is changing. Design/Methodology/Approach: The panel study included a group of people managing the work of local governments in 87 municipalities located in the Lublin Voivodeship in southeastern Poland. All these administrative units are characterized by the presence of Natura 2000 areas. The method of a diagnostic survey based on a questionnaire was used. The form contained closed-ended questions, one of the proposed options had to be selected at each point. The answers were assigned an appropriate score and statistically tested using the signs test based on the Bernoulli binomial distribution. Findings: As a result, positive changes from the point of view of nature conservation were found, such as: an increase in the number of officials with appropriate education and substantive preparation, possession by local governments of newer documentation in the field of nature inventory, increasing the frequency of carrying out environmental impact assessments and a more favorable attitude of commune mayors to the presence of Natura 2000 areas in the context of its impact on local development. At the same time, there has been a deterioration in the timeliness of spatial development studies on which local development plans are based. Practical Implications: The conclusions of the study can be used primarily by institutions responsible for the development and implementation of environmental policy. In particular, mechanisms should be taken to encourage local self-government authorities to even greater involvement in various activities for the protection of natural resources. Originality/Value: The article indicates the trends of changes in the management of protected natural values at the lowest local government level. These changes will gain in importance with the implementation of formal Natura 2000 protection plans.

“…Konsep ekowisata mulai dikembangkan tahun 1990 oleh The International Ecotourism Society (TIES) (Drum & Moore, 2005). Ekowisata merupakan suatu aktivitas wisata yang bertanggung jawab terhadap lingkungan kawasan alam dan segala bentuk budaya, adat dan tradisi yang berkembang di masyarakat sekitar lokasi wisata, memiliki dampak minimal terhadap eksploitasi alam serta memberikan manfaat sosial ekonomi bagi masyarakat sekitar (Drumm & Moore, 2005;Su & Wall, 2014;McKinney, 2016;Tisnawati, 2019). Dalam penerapannya, bentuk kegiatan ekowisata secara aktif berkontribusi terhadap konservasi alam dan budaya, melibatkan masyarakat lokal dalam perencanaan, pengembangan dan pengelolaan destinasi wisata, sehingga mampu meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat sekitar (McKinney, 2016;Tisnawati, 2019).…”

“…Tabel 1 menguraikan kriteria penentu keberhasilan penerapan konsep ekowisata. Sumber: Dewi & Rosyidie, 2008;Su & Wall, 2014;Chrismansyah, 2022 Dalam penerapan konsep ekowisata, masyarakat memiliki peran yang sangat penting (Su & Wall, 2014;McKinney, 2016;Tisnawati, 2019). Menurut Janianton dan Helmut (2006) dalam Dewi dan Rosyidie (2008), peran masyarakat dalam pengelolaan kawasan ekowisata yaitu : (1) peran sebagai petugas pendukung kegiatan wisata (petugas parkir, keamanan, pemandu wisata, karyawan akomodasi dan pelayan restoran); (2) peran sebagai investor kegiatan wisata (pengusaha atau pengelola jasa akomodasi/restauran, atraksi dan transportasi dalam kawasan); (3) peran sebagai pelaku kegiatna pendidikan dan pelatihan pengelolana proyek ekowisata; (4) peran sebagai tenaga pemasaran dan promosi; (5) peran sebagai pemasok bahan kebutuhan kawasan ekowisata (bahan pangan, bahan bangunan dan kerajinan tangan); (6) peran sebagai pengelola usaha jasa penunjang kawasan ekowisata.…”

Kawasan Embung Sendangtirto yang terletak di Kalurahan Sendangtirto, Kabupaten Sleman saat ini telah berkembang menjadi tempat rekreasi warga setempat. Komposisi lansekap yang terdiri dari hamparan dataran dan badan air, kondisi udara yang masih segar serta kegiatan pertanian pada lahan sekitar merupakan beberapa potensi yang dapat dikembangkan sebagai kawasan ekowisata. Oleh karena itu tujuan yang ingin dicapai dari penelitian ini adalah merumuskan Strategi Perancangan Kawasan Embung Sendangtirto berdasarkan konsep ekowisata. Penelitian ini menerapkan metode deskriptif, dengan analisis kualitatif. Strategi penerapan konsep ekowisata berdasar pada 3 (tiga) prinsip dasar, yaitu (1) upaya pelestarian lingkunga; (2) upaya pelestarian seni budaya lokal; dan (3) upaya pelibatan masyarakat lokal dan peningkatan kesejahteraan masyarakat.

“…Salah satu subset pariwisata yang paling cepat berkembang adalah ekowisata (Diamantis, 1999) yaitu pariwisata yang berfokus pada kelestarian lingkungan. Ekowisata dinilai memiliki efek positif pada lingkungan alam dengan tetap mempertimbangkan kelayakan ekonomi dan keadilan sosial jangka panjang (McKinney, 2016). Ekowisata juga dinilai telah mendorong munculnya kepekaan terhadap budaya dalam hubungan antara pengunjung dan penduduk lokal dan bertindak sebagai katalis pembangunan berkelanjutan (Sindiga, 1999).…”

The Kedung Ombo Reservoir area, which is rich in natural resources, has the potential to be developed as an ecotourism area, but institutional issues and policy focus bias have hampered its development. This study aims to identify strategic variables in the region and find a description of the interdependent relationship between these variables, which is useful in determining the right policy. Research data were obtained through focus group discussions and workshops. Data analysis using Micmac method. The results of the study determine 31 (thirty one) strategic variables in the development of the Kedung Ombo ecotourism area which are grouped into typologies as follows: (1) determinant variables, consisting of: special regulations and permits; (2) relay variable, consisting of: community involvement, tourism business potential, infrastructure readiness, tourism awareness, transportation, tourists, tourist attractions, accommodation, tourism promotion, tourism services, private investment, governance, coordination, role of apparatus and information; (3) autonomous variables, consisting of: local entrepreneurial abilities, developer's understanding of local norms, natural beauty, environmental carrying capacity, and accessibility; and (4) dependent variables such as: tax income, retribution income, availability of funds for the community, preservation of local wisdom, expansion of employment opportunities, conservation of reservoir functions, forest preservation, welfare improvement, and poverty reduction. This research also produces a sequence of priority scales of these strategic variables which is very useful for policy makers in directing the focus of policies to ensure the successful development of the Kedung Ombo ecotourism in a sustainable manner.
