Abstract

The tourism sector in Gunung Sari Village, Pamijahan District, Bogor Regency, is not the main sector in its community activities. The existence of natural tourism in the form of waterfalls, camping ground and hot springs is a potential for the village to realize the Bogor Regency Mission. Existing tour operators are not residents or village communities. The active participation of village communities has not been seen in the management, operational and maintenance of tourist attractions. The tour paramilitary group 20 can be an agent for villages to empower communities in the tourism sector. Srikandi Gunung Sari group is a community group that involves mothers and produces local food products in the form of banana chips and cassava. In an effort to increase the active participation of village communities in tourism activities in Gunung Sari Village, the empowerment of the Laskar Tourism Group 20 and Srikandi Gunung Sari was carried out through education, workshops, mentoring and facilitation activities. The main target of this activity is the village community who can independently manage, maintain and improve the tourism sector in Gunung Sari village towards a sustainable tourism independent village.

Summary

Introduction

Gunung Sari Village, Pamijahan District, Bogor Regency is one of the agricultural villages in the southeast, 25 km from the center of Bogor. Some communities and village governments are aware of the tourism potential of their villages (Fannel, 2015) This is based on the enthusiasm for the service activities that have been carried out previously, namely in 2015 and in 2016 through the Community Development activities conducted by the Computer Science Student Association (HIMAKOM) and the Computer Science Study Program. Several activities and efforts have been carried out to support Gunung Sari village to become an ecotourism area through community participation. Gunung Sari Village already has several community groups that carry out activities related to family empowerment, including: PKK and Posyandu Groups, Gunung Sari Srikandi Business Group, and SPP groups. Economic activities that arise due to the tourism village have a good effect on the financial condition of the family and the welfare of the village
