Abstract

The Batupasi people are the inheritors of the historical fragments of the Lalebbata area. Lalebbata is an important space in the history of Palopo City, where the economic, socio-cultural and religiosity of the Palopo people begins. This activity was carried out to try to explore the collective memory, the root of the problem and the hopes of the Batupasi residents for their increasingly 'aging' living space. The effort was outlined in a Place Making Workshop activity where Batupasi residents were invited to jointly express their dreams, hopes and imaginations in the process of being creative in shaping and rediscovering their neighborhood. This activity consists of 2 items, namely old photo exhibition, mapping and participatory planning. This process allows citizens to be able to take an impression of the past which has become their cultural values and social identity through a process of continuously defining the space which is then projected into the future so that it can continue to be felt until for the generations to come. In addition, this activity aims to identify the problems faced by Batupasi residents related to social, cultural, economic and inhabited areas.

Summary

Introduction

Batupasi is one of the oldest place in Palopo City. Residents who live in it are first hand story tellers. They are heirs to the historical fragments of the Lalebbata Region. Lalebbata is an important space in the history of Palopo City. This is where the economic, socio-cultural and religiosity of the Palopo people begins. The interwoven three levels are symbolized by markets, palaces and mosques. The significance of space in Batupasi only lives at the socio-cultural and religious level. The policy of moving the new economic center to the Central Market (the Palopo Commerce Center), brings with it the hope of Batupasi residents for a better economic life
