Abstract
Compared to 15 villages located in Ciletuh Geopark, Tamanjaya is the center of geotourism activities and the village has the most rapid progress, as well as has active tourism management. Therefore, this study was aimed to identify the factors supporting the success of the Community-Based Tourism (CBT) project in Tamanjaya Village and explore the community's constraints in participating in the project. The data was collected through observations and interviews with various stakeholders and local residents. The analysis results suggested that the success factor of the CBT project in Tamanjaya Village cannot be separated from some involved parties, ranging from the private sector, academia, and governmental institutions. Meanwhile, the local residents' barriers to participation in the tourism activities include the community's lack of interest in the tourism activities, busy activities in household affairs, and lack of tourism knowledge of Ciletuh Geopark.

Summary
One of the potential efforts that can be done to preserve culture and nature in the frame of tourism is to create a geopark. The geopark concept serves as a tourist destination that can accommodate the phenomenon of tourism which is oriented to diversity or natural and cultural beauty. Geopark as an alternative to tourism development will further strengthen the image of sustainable tourism in Indonesia. Indonesia continues to try to build a Geopark and has succeeded in making one of its geoparks recognized by UNESCO as a part of Global Geopark Network (GGN), i.e. Ciletuh Geopark. In early 2018, Ciletuh Geopark was recognized as a part of the Global Geopark Network (GGN). Many efforts have been made so that the geopark is designated by UNESCO as a world heritage park. The efforts started with the preliminary study in 2015, the acceleration of development in 2017, and https://jbhost.org/
