Pemberdayaan masyarakat lokal dalam pengelolaan sampah di ITDC Mandalika untuk keberlanjutan ekosistem pariwisata
Abstract
Abstrak
Kawasan Ekonomi Khusus (KEK) Mandalika yang dikelola oleh Indonesia Tourism Development Corporation (ITDC) merupakan salah satu destinasi wisata unggulan di Indonesia. Namun, peningkatan jumlah wisatawan di kawasan ini juga menimbulkan permasalahan lingkungan, terutama dalam pengelolaan sampah. Pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran ITDC dalam pengelolaan sampah di kawasan Mandalika serta mengevaluasi tantangan dan peluang dalam mewujudkan sistem pengelolaan sampah yang berkelanjutan. Metode yang digunakan melalui wawancara dengan pihak ITDC untuk memperoleh data mengenai kebijakan, implementasi, serta kendala dalam pengelolaan sampah di kawasan tersebut. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa meskipun ITDC telah menerapkan berbagai kebijakan dan program dalam pengelolaan sampah, masih terdapat tantangan dalam hal infrastruktur, kesadaran masyarakat, serta koordinasi dengan pihak terkait. Untuk mengatasi permasalahan ini, diperlukan strategi yang melibatkan edukasi dan pemberdayaan masyarakat, peningkatan infrastruktur pengelolaan sampah, penerapan konsep ekonomi sirkular, serta kolaborasi dengan berbagai pihak. Dengan implementasi yang tepat, diharapkan kawasan Mandalika dapat menjadi destinasi wisata yang bersih, nyaman, dan berkelanjutan.

Abstract
The Mandalika Special Economic Zone (SEZ), managed by the Indonesia Tourism Development Corporation (ITDC), is one of Indonesia's premier tourist destinations. However, the increasing number of tourists in this area has also led to environmental issues, particularly in waste management. This initiative aims to analyze ITDC's role in waste management within the Mandalika area and evaluate the challenges and opportunities in establishing a sustainable waste management system. The method used involves conducting interviews with ITDC representatives to gather data on policies, implementation, and obstacles related to waste management in the area. The results indicate that although ITDC has implemented various policies and programs for waste management, challenges persist in terms of infrastructure, public awareness, and coordination with relevant stakeholders. To address these issues, strategies such as community education and empowerment, enhancement of waste management infrastructure, the application of circular economy principles, and collaboration with multiple stakeholders are necessary. With proper implementation, the Mandalika area is expected to become a clean, comfortable, and sustainable tourist destination.
