Rural Economic Development Strategy through Village Tourism Development with the Exploitation of Local Potential (Empirical Study in Kebon Ayu Village, West Lombok)

This study aims to examine and analyze the appropriate strategies developed by stakeholders in building and developing rural tourism areas, especially Kebon Ayu Village as one of the mainstay tourist villages in West Lombok. The development of rural areas is important to create community welfare as well as to play the role of residents to take responsibility for maintaining the preservation of the surrounding natural environment. The research approach used is a qualitative descriptive approach based on field observation with the support of secondary data. The collected data is then analyzed using a SWOT analysis approach by systematically identifying various internal and external factors to formulate the desired development strategy. The logic built is how to maximize strengths and opportunities but at the same time minimize weaknesses and threats. The results of the study show that the tourist attraction of Kebon Ayu Village has enough potential to be developed because of the support of the beautiful rural nature and the surrounding hills that surround it. It has a natural rural atmosphere, supporting agro-tourism and culinary tourism potential, with an attractive green expanse of hills, a strategic position as a buffer for the district capital (Gerung) and its safe and comfortable environment. But on the other hand, several things need to be improved, such as the arrangement of the residential environment, waste handling, and concern for tourist facilities such as garbage cans, ATMs, toilets, mini markets, prayer rooms, and others. Supporting facilities and infrastructure need to receive attention so that they are more organized, such as the construction of environmental roads, street lighting, waterways, folk craft coaching, water game spots, outbound, and camping grounds. If all of these things can be overcome properly, then the Kebon Ayu Village tourist attraction will have its own attraction and become a mainstay tourist destination that can compete with other village tourist attractions.

‘We shouldn’t have to ask’: exploring the realities of minority ethnic women football spectators

ABSTRACT Research Question: Women’s football is experiencing significant growth, but is it fully inclusive? Little research explores the experiences of minority ethnic women spectators. For women’s football to capitalise on its success and be welcoming for all, it is critical to explore the barriers facing women intersectionally. This paper seeks answers to the following questions: What influenced minority ethnic women’s decisions to watch the UWE, and what challenges exist to their spectatorship? Research Methods An online survey and three focus groups explored United Kingdom respondents’ thoughts around spectatorship at the 2022 UEFA Women’s Euros. Topics included the marketing before the event, their experiences, and future intentions. Results and Findings: Analysis of the results resulted in the following themes: the importance of supporting the England women’s team vs. a lack of diversity, lack of cultural awareness, performativity and the FA, and women’s football being different to men’s football. Minority ethnic women face numerous challenges, including perceptions of tokenism, a lack of representation on and off the pitch, and religious observances, including a lack of prayer rooms and no-alcohol zones. Implications Governing bodies must take action to diversify the sport at all levels, especially grassroots, including consulting and listening to the voices of minority ethnic women. The creation of role models will increase feelings of connectedness. While this work has focused on women’s football, leaders in the men’s game and other governing bodies could embrace our suggestions to encourage more minority ethnic spectators.

Design and Development a Web Platform Portal for Mosque Financial Management

Transparency and accountability in the financial management of mosques is an area that requires significant attention because it builds the initial trust of the mosque in collecting funds through infaq and waqf. Currently, many mosques still use whiteboards as a tool to present their financial reports. This poses a problem for mosques when delivering financial reports to donors who live far away. Therefore, a tool that can serve as a medium for financial reporting is needed. Based on this need, the research aims to create a web-based mosque financial portal to record income (donations, alms), qurban records, and expenses. In other applications, each mosque uses an application designed for each mosque. This software has been developed to accommodate the needs of each mosque and is integrated into a single application portal. The development of this application uses the Waterfall method, which involves various stages such as user requirements, system design, implementation, and testing. This financial portal was successfully implemented in 11 mosques and prayer rooms across 5 provinces. This application features recording income (donations and alms), qurban records, and expenditure records. The test results show that many mosques can use this financial management portal to record income and expenses. Finally, we can conclude that this web-based mosque financial portal would be a viable solution to enhance the accountability services of mosques in managing their finances.

Analisis Standar Penerangan pada Gedung IDB Laboratory FMIPA UNESA Berbasis Visual Basic 6.0

Lighting is a major requirement in human life to be able to see objects around clearly, lighting is obtained from natural light sources and artificial light sources. The IDB laboratory building of the FMIPA UNESA has many rooms with different functions and uses, so the lighting of each room must be adjusted to the Indonesian National Standard (SNI 03-6575-2001). Therefore, a program is needed to analyze and determine the number of lights used quickly and accurately in order to achieve safe and comfortable lighting according to (SNI 03-6575-2001). In this case the method used is to use the calculation of the visual basic 6.0 program by inputting the dimensions of each room, namely length, width, height, and the type of artificial lighting used. Based on the results of the calculation of the lighting standards of the IDB building using the visual basic 6.0 program, it is known that only the prayer room on the 1st floor, the microscope room on the 2nd floor, the warehouse on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th floors and the microteaching room on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th floors meet SNI 03-6575-2001. Whereas for other rooms such as libraries and laboratories cannot meet SNI 03-6575-2001 so that action needs to be taken so that they can meet the standards, namely by increasing the number of lighting points in each room, or it can also be by replacing the type of lighting with a larger lumen value than before.

The influence of air movement in providing thermal comfort in naturally ventilated old Mosque Gunong Kleng, West Aceh, Indonesia

Abstract Mosques were created to fulfill the needs of Muslims in prayer, therefore thermal comfort is critical to consider so that the congregation is comfortable and can focus and feel at home while praying. The typology of ancient mosques reflects the community’s traditions and culture, as well as local knowledge values. Natural ventilation, which acts as a natural air exchange mechanism, is one facet of thermal comfort. The Gunong Kleng Mosque, founded in 1927, is one of West Aceh Regency’s ancient mosques. However, design adjustments have been made, such as the installation of wooden boards to on terraced roof. The air flow from the building’s roof is blocked, resulting in inefficient air exchange. The goal of this study is to determine thermal performance and the effect of air movement on thermal comfort at the Old Gunong Kleng Mosque. This study employed a quantitative approach using field measurements of air temperature, relative humidity, and air velocity. An anemometer and a USB data logger were utilized to collect data. Field measurements revealed that ET comfort in the mosque was 78% too hot, 16% warm comfortable, and 6% for optimal comfort. Ansys Fluet simulation with two types of situations was used to forecast air speed, demonstrating that changes in the design of the stepped roof had a significant impact on the air speed within the mosque. When opposed to an open roof, a closed roof slightly lowered the ambient temperature in the prayer room.
