Penta-Helix Collaboration Model in Community Development (Batik Making in Sangiran)

Abstract

The Sangiran site is one of the largest Early Man sites in the world. The Sangiran site is located in Sragen and Karanganyar Regencies. Because of its content which has high historical and scientific value, the Sangiran Site is designated as a Cultural Heritage area. In addition, UNESCO has designated Sangiran as a World Cultural Heritage. However, the local community has not used it optimally, so community empowerment is needed. Cross-stakeholder collaboration is one of the keys to successful development, as well as in community development. This study aims to build a penta-helix collaboration model in the Batik community in Sangiran by highlighting the characteristics of the Sangiran site as a batik motif. Using the penta-helix concept consisting of government, academia, private sector, community, and media. Using qualitative research methods with participatory action. Batik is one of the potentials of local residents who work as batik makers but have not been maximized to produce batik characterized by the Sangiran site while at the same time increasing financial welfare. Through the penta-helix model, it is hoped that it can realize the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in achieving accelerated economic development for the Sangiran village community.
