Participatory Sustainable Village Development Within the Bukit Rimbang Bukit Baling Wildlife Reserve Area in Kampar Regency

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify the factors that influence the sustainability of village development and scenarios for village development models in the Bukit Rimbang Bukit Baling Wildlife Reserve area in Kampar Regency. The analytical approach used to answer the research objectives is the Participatory Prospective Analysis method. The results of this study indicate that the dominant variables that are sensitive to increasing village development in the Bukit Rimbang Bukit Baling Wildlife Reserve area in Kampar Regency are village connectivity, basic service facilities and infrastructure, community empowerment, amenity resources, integration and synergy of village development. Interventions on these dominant variables in the minimum, optimal and maximum scenarios can improve the status of village development from less sustainable in the existing conditions to good/quite sustainable in the future. The sustainable village development scenario offers a more balanced development process between environmental, social, economic, legal, and governance dimensions.
