Balinese Women’s Strategy for Managing Waste Banks: Adaptation of Digital Technology for Business Sustainability in Denpasar City and Gianyar Regency, Province of Bali

Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 +0000

ABSTRACT

Bali is the third largest waste producing province in Indonesia compared to other provinces in Indonesia. Most waste bank managers are women who are members of community and traditional organizations. The problem that exists is that the potential and condition of waste banks are not properly identified so that many do not receive the government's attention, so their sustainability is threatened. The aim of this community service is to map the condition and potential of waste banks in two locations, namely Denpasar City and Gianyar Regency. The service method is in the form of FGD with women who manage waste banks. Based on the results of the FGD, the conditions, constraints and hopes of waste bank managers were formulated. The next conclusion is that women managing waste banks still do not fully know and have access to the use of digital technology to improve the sustainability of waste banks. A strategy that can be implemented is to increase socialization and assistance to women who manage waste banks.

Key words: women, waste bank; digital technology; sustainability

The poverty conditions occurring in the midst of society are caused by various interconnected factors that worsen the situation. Kutaliman Village is one of the villages in Banyumas Regency with a relatively high unemployment rate (55%). This is regrettable considering the abundant natural resources in Kutaliman Village, such as fertile land, cool temperatures, abundant water, and the beauty of the natural landscape. Efforts to address these issues involve utilizing integrated farming as a tourist attraction that can enhance recreational experiences with direct education in the open environment. The role of the Self-Reliant Agriculture and Rural Training Centre (P4S) Sida Mukti is crucial in developing these potentials by engaging the local community and youth. This service activity is implemented by expanding the Agroecotourism Area, involving livestock farms, fish ponds, and the farmland owned by residents as integrated farming education destinations during a visit. Additionally, the creation of a WEBGIS-based map is necessary to facilitate visitors in accessing the integrated farming destinations they plan to visit.
