Utilizing qualitative methods and Miles and Huberman's data analysis model, this research collects information from various literature sources to identify strategies that can enhance competitiveness and sustainability in the tourism sector.

Tourism is one of the key sectors in driving regional economic growth. The potential of tourism attractions contributes to local community income and Regional Original Revenue (PAD) through tourism development. Central Tapanuli Regency has significant tourism potential that can be optimally managed to enhance PAD.This study aims to examine the extent to which the tourism sector contributes to increasing PAD and boosting the local economy in Central Tapanuli Regency. The research employs a quantitative approach using OLS regression analysis based on secondary data collected from the Central Bureau of Statistics of Central Tapanuli Regency from 2014 to 2023.The findings indicate a positive relationship between tourist visits, both domestic and international, and PAD. However, hotel occupancy rates show a negative correlation with PAD. Interestingly, this study highlights that hotel occupancy rates have a negative relationship with PAD. This finding suggests that the government needs to pay attention to factors affecting hotel occupancy rates, such as changing tourism trends and management leakage.The implementation of this research emphasizes the need for policy evaluation and enhanced supervision of hotel occupancy rates.

This study examines how women entrepreneurs in Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the creative economy sector leverage digital technology to strengthen their roles in the urban tourism ecosystem. Using a qualitative approach supported by secondary data and non-intervention observations over six months in South Jakarta, the study analyzes the dynamics of digital adoption, the cultural value of creative products, and structural barriers affecting women's entrepreneurial experiences. The findings reveal that digital utilization is most prominent on easily accessible platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, and WhatsApp, while the use of more complex tools, such as marketplaces, websites, and analytics, remains limited. Women’s creative products, in subsectors like culinary, crafts, fashion, and others, prove to enrich the tourism experience and reinforce the city's destination identity. However, low digital literacy, minimal mentoring, and weak integration into the formal tourism supply chain hinder the optimization of these potentials. Additionally, the digital adoption patterns found support the Technology Acceptance Model's explanation that the perceived ease of use is a key factor in early technology adoption. This study fills an important gap in the literature by linking gender issues, digital transformation, the creative economy, and urban tourism within a unified framework. The research emphasizes the importance of strengthening digital capabilities and structured collaboration between women-led MSMEs and tourism stakeholders to enhance the sustainable competitiveness of destinations.

The development of tourist villages in Indonesia is increasing with government support and a shift in tourist interest towards educational and sustainable tourism. Sidomulyo Tourism Village, one of the tourist destinations in Jember Regency, has shown the potential for developing community-based tourism (CBT). However, the management of this village is still under the auspices of the village government, which could lead to continued dependency in the future. Community involvement is still limited because the village government decides the entire planning and management process. Through educational training, this community service program aims to strengthen CBT practices in the Sidomulyo Tourism Village. The process of transferring knowledge and experience is carried out by a manager of one of the independent tourist villages in Indonesia. This activity includes training and evaluation sessions. The results show increased participants' understanding of CBT and independent management of tourist villages. This program recommends developing priority attractions and improving digital marketing as initial steps to support sustainable tourism in the village.

Halal tourism has emerged as a significant niche within the global tourism industry, offering a unique opportunity to integrate religious values with sustainable tourism practices. This study explores the economic, cultural, and environmental impacts of halal tourism, focusing on its role in fostering local economic growth, preserving cultural heritage, and promoting environmental sustainability. The research highlights key findings that show halal tourism not only drives economic growth by creating income opportunities and supporting small and medium enterprises (SMEs) but also ensures that tourism activities align with eco-friendly practices. The study emphasizes that halal tourism has the potential to integrate local wisdom and community engagement, which strengthens cultural preservation and promotes social cohesion within tourism destinations. Furthermore, halal tourism initiatives frequently incorporate sustainable tourism practices, such as responsible resource use and the conservation of natural ecosystems, thereby contributing to the broader goals of sustainable tourism development. The study compares halal tourism with traditional mass tourism, noting that halal tourism offers a more inclusive, culturally sensitive, and environmentally responsible model. It also examines the challenges faced by halal tourism, including the lack of standardized halal certification and infrastructure deficiencies, which hinder its growth in some regions. Despite these challenges, the research identifies opportunities for innovation, particularly in the use of technology to enhance certification systems and improve environmental sustainability. The paper concludes with policy recommendations for integrating halal tourism into sustainable tourism strategies, suggesting the need for coordinated frameworks that promote both halal compliance and environmental stewardship. Finally, future research should focus on the impacts of halal tourism in diverse geographic and cultural contexts, exploring its potential for fostering sustainable tourism practices worldwide.
