Bali is a world tourist destination that is famous for having various types of interesting maritime tourism, including mangrove areas which are typical of equatorial regions. The purpose of this study is to develop a model that can predict the sustainability of ecotourism in the mangrove area in Bali based on the approach of empowering local potential and empowering the community. Data analysis was carried out using Bayesian Network analysis, where input was based on the results of the FGD. The results show high probability of realizing the sustainability of ecotourism, where the most influential variables are community participation and local product developers or mangrove-based products. In addition, the condition of the mangrove forest also needs attention, considering that the sustainability of mangrove ecotourism is very sensitive to changes in the condition of the mangrove forest. The three main variables have reflected the combination of the three elements of sustainability, namely people-social (community participation), planet-environment (mangrove forest condition), and profit-economic (developing of mangrove-based products). Mangrove ecotourism development in Bali should be focused on increasing community participation and the development of mangrove-based products.

Sustainable tourism is known as an effort to prevent the negative impacts of tourism development by considering economic, social and environmental aspects. Sustainable tourism development is very important to be used as a reference in managing tourism destinations. The large tourism potential in the Bali Province has been inventoried by the Provincial Government of Bali by establishing a tourism area. However, in its development, several designated tourism areas cannot develop optimally and tend to experience a decrease in the quality and quantity of tourist visits. This paper presents transformation pathways toward sustainable tourism development in tourism areas. The general objective is to determine strategies that can be pursued in the development of tourism areas. The specific objective is to develop the best policies and scenarios in the development of tourism areas. This research was conducted in the Soka Tourism Area in Bali Province, Indonesia, which is the only strategic tourism area in Tabanan Regency, which has great potential but has not been able to develop optimally. The data obtained from the focus group discussion, as a data collection method will be analyzed using the MULTIPOL method. The results of the research show that the development of sustainable tourism areas can be carried out by preparing a clear and measurable framework. Promotion, preparation of cross-sector programs and tourism management training activities are needed as priority programs. On the policy, it is necessary to carry out effective planning as an optimal policy involving all stakeholders. In addition, the “Progressive Transformation” and “Integrated Transformation” scenarios can be considered to achieve sustainable tourism development. This study can be an important input for stakeholders in determining policies for the development of tourism areas in the research locations and can be applied in other areas that have similar characteristics.

This research focuses on the welfare of rice farmers in Tabanan Regency as a form of support for the sustainability of the agricultural sector to support the food security and sovereignty of Bali Province, which is still primarily supported by Tabanan Regency. This research was conducted in Tabanan Regency, Bali Province, known as the "rice barn" of Bali Province, with the largest area of rice fields and the most significant number of farmers in Bali Province. The approach used in this research is a quantitative approach using a questionnaire, and the analysis technique used in this research is SEM-PLS (Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Square) analysis, with 167 rice farmers as respondents to this research. The findings from this research show that farming business performance can mediate the influence of agricultural technology adoption on the welfare of rice farmers in Tabanan Regency. The findings from this research are strengthened by interviews showing that rice farmers in Tabanan Regency have confidence in themselves in farming. This is demonstrated by farmers' efforts to use various developments in agricultural technology, such as using superior seeds and modern agricultural equipment, which can shorten the working time, among others, to improve the welfare of rice farmers in Tabanan Regency.

Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) play a major contribution to the Indonesian economy. Along with the development of a centralized economic direction on consumers, the use of technology in all fields, and information transparency, SMEs must also be able to adapt in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0. This research aims to develop strategies for strengthening and developing SMEs and mapping the hierarchy policy of developing a creative economy-based SME business model in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0 in the Province of Bali. The data in this study were collected through documentation, FGD, and interview techniques, then analyzed using SWOT and MULTIPOL analysis techniques. The ability of creative economy-based SMEs to compete in the global era depends on internal and external factors. The analysis shows that SMEs in the Province of Bali are in a position of growth and built, so the strategies adopted are intensive strategies or integration. Development policies for SMEs, especially in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0, need to be directed so that the guided SMEs become independent SMEs. The policy package for the development of target SMEs includes technology, capital, marketing and infrastructure policies.
