A Dynamic Model for Sustainable Tourism Village Planning Based on Local Institutions

Abstract. Regional development involves optimizing the utilization of the region’s resources in an integrated and harmonious way. This regional development is realized through a comprehensive approach that includes physical, economic, social, cultural, and environmental aspects. The integration of these aspects will lead to sustainable development in the region. However, development is currently often looked at only from a physical way so that the concept of sustainability only exists on paper and does not involve local institutions in the region, such as in the tourism village development program. The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between physical/environmental, economic, and social aspects and local institutions in Tabanan Regency, Bali Province in realizing sustainable tourism villages. Primary and secondary data were combined through questionnaires and interviews. This study uses dynamic system analysis. Including all three aspects results in a new model of system dynamics and it can show that the local institutional aspect is an aspect that must be taken into account in designing a model of sustainable development in a region or area. This is so that problems that arise can be eliminated as early as possible and alternative policies can be obtained that should be adopted by policy makers, strengthened by local rules (awig-awig) and local government laws.
