This study aims to determine the level of sustainability of EHMW management in Surabaya based on analysis of three sustainability criteria. The study was conducted from September to October 2017. We conducted two methods of data collection: interviews and questionnaires. Assessment is grouped into four levels of sustainability status (%): 0.00-25.00 (unsustainable); 25.01-50.00 (less sustainability); 50.01-75.00 (sufficient sustainability); and 75.01-100,00 (continuous). EHMW management goes into sustainable criteria (77.18%). The value of the sustainability of all criteria is still below 50.1%, or less sustainable. Each criteria's value was ecology criteria of 29.38%, on the economic criteria of 28.17% and on the social criteria of 19.63%.

“…For example, in the Annapurna Conservation Area of Nepal, the local community has initiated awareness camps and adult literacy programs, which showcase the transformative potential of community involvement in ecotourism (Bajracharya et al, 2007). As communities gain a deeper understanding of ecotourism principles, there is a noticeable decline in unsustainable activities like hunting, fishing, and deforestation, indicating a positive correlation between community participation and the preservation of the region's socio-cultural identity (Kiper et al, 2011;Reimer & Walter, 2013).…”

Encouraging community involvement in ecotourism initiatives fosters a sense of local ownership and responsibility, which are crucial for ecotourism's lasting success and sustainability. This long-term environmental stewardship is vital for ensuring the preservation and protection of natural resources and promoting responsible tourism practices. This study comprehensively analyzes the significance of community participation in ecotourism. The study explores the types, roles, and challenges of community participation in ecotourism. Through a systematic review, the literature is collected mainly from the Scopus database, Science Direct, and Google Scholar, which were published after 2005. By following four steps of conducting thematic analysis: searching, selecting, extracting, and synthesizing, 53 articles were selected as per selection criteria. The findings highlight the diverse array of community participation, ranging from active to passive, including the role of participation of women in ecotourism. It further identified the role of community participation in economic, socio-cultural, and environmental aspects and explored possible challenges of ecotourism. The possible challenges of community participation in ecotourism, such as disparities of benefits sharing, lack of sufficient cooperation among the stakeholders, and lack of community involvement in different activities, underline the urgent need to develop comprehensive strategies to address these issues. Recommendations for future research advocate for comparative studies across diverse regions, longitudinal research, and deeper explorations of power dynamics within communities to inform more equitable and sustainable ecotourism practices.

In this paper the ecotourism development (ED) outcomes on economic (ECE), socio-cultural (SCE) and environmental (ENE) effects on local communities was studied. For this purpose, the structural equation model (SEM) model was used. For empirical data and case study, the Kang and Noghondar villages of Khorasan-e-Razavi province of Iran were selected. Results indicated that ecotourism development (ED) has positive significant effect at 1% on economic effects (ECE) of Kang and Noghondar villages. Also, if ED of Kang and Noghondar villages improve 1 unit, ECE will increase equal to 0.81 and 0.83 units, respectively. In addition, ecotourism development (ED) has negative significant effect at 1% on environmental effects (ENE) of Kang and Noghondar villages. Also, if ED of Kang and Noghondar villages improve 1 unit, ENE will decrease equal to 0.67, and 0.69 units, respectively. Finally, ecotourism development (ED) has positive significant effect at 1% on socio-cultural effects (SCE) of Kang and Noghondar villages. Also, if ED of Kang and Noghondar villages improve 1 unit, SCE will decrease increase to 0.74 and 0.71 units, respectively.
