Program KKN-Tematik di Desa Manuawaru Kecamatan Mallawa Kabupaten Maros

Abstract

A community service program has been implemented through the Thematic Real Work Lecture program with the theme of tourism development in Wanuawaru Village. Wanuawaru Village has quite good tourism potential in South Sulawesi, however there are several problems found in developing this tourist village, including (1) there is not yet massive information about tourism in the village so it has not attracted many tourists. (2) Internet network access in Wanuawaru Village requires network development for internet facilities so that public convenience regarding mass media and tourism information can be delivered on a massive scale. And (3) Management of tourist attractions is not optimal, including maintenance of facilities and cleanliness of tourist objects. This service program is carried out in Manuawaru village which has maximum village potential in the tourism sector through the Thematic Real Work Lecture program. KKN activities were carried out by 26 Bosowa University students from various study programs. Thematic KKN activities are carried out for 2 months with various stages of activities, namely observation, formulation of problems and potential, preparation of work programs, discussion of work programs, implementation of work programs and evaluation of activities. The work programs that were successfully implemented in this activity include (1) Development of Leang Panning; (2) Tourism Development through Online Media Publications; (3) Installation of tourist attraction banners and talk boards.
