Community Participation-based Tourism Governance in Post Covid-19 (Case Study on Conservation in Borobudur Temple)

Borobudur Temple's tourism, while boosted by post-COVID health protocols and economic benefits, faces vulnerabilities in its physical carrying capacity that require policy intervention. The study identifies the need for multi-actor cooperation to ensure the temple's sustainability, balancing conservation with economic growth. Researchers employed a mix of literature review, spatial analysis using GIS, and in-depth interviews to analyze tourism trends and their future predictions, along with economic impacts. This approach underscores the importance of community participation-based governance models in achieving sustainable tourism outcomes for UNESCO World Heritage Sites like Borobudur.
