From 2009 to 2015, the growth of tourism in the tourist villages (desa wisata) of Karimunjawa underwent rapid progress. However, the level of poverty in Karimunjawa remained high. Nevertheless, the involvement of rural people in the sustainable development of tourism has received only limited discussion. Therefore, this article discusses the rural communities’ adaptation and resilience in Karimunjawa with the support of sustainable development planning in tourist villages. It covers the background of sustainable development, the elements of the communities’ adaptive capacity and resilience, and the role of the regional government. Empirical evidence of variations in the capacity to respond to changes of socioeconomic and ecological environments due to tourism development is presented. In addition, a case study is used in this article to describe how the people learned from their experience, knowledge, and past efforts. To obtain the necessary information, in-depth interviews were conducted with a number of key informants in the tourist villages of Karimunjawa, which were selected via purposive and snowball sampling. The results of the research show that social resilience will increase among those communities that are capable of accessing flexible social networks. These social networks are practical tools that open up the dissemination of new information and knowledge. This is a key element for a stronger process of transformation. Furthermore, communities that have capital and financial access as well as skills will also be capable of adaptation to the transformation process.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a tough challenge for developing countries, including Indonesia. At the regional level, the integration of SDGs into development planning faces many challenges, because some indicators are not yet in accordance with regional conditions, as well as very limited data. The purpose of this study is to analyze the integration of SDGs indicators into development planning carried out by local governments in Central Java. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The research location is in Central Java, taking the case in the Central Java Provincial Government, as well as the Pekalongan District Government, Pemalang District, Wonosobo Regency, and Grobogan Regency. Research informants are those who have the authority to develop development plans, as well as non-government actors. The data analysis technique uses the interactive model as developed by Miles and Huberman. The conclusion of this study is that the implementation of SDGs in Central Java, both at the provincial and district / city levels is still not optimal, because SDGs are only interpreted as BAPPEDA activities, and in the preparation of action plans there are still very few government and non-government programs integrated. Another obstacle is the lack of commitment among stakeholders, both in sharing data and resources, formulating programs and preparing action plans.

<em>As many as 83% of Indonesia's territory is rural. Each region has natural resource potential. However, it is still rarely managed properly. If managed properly, it has the potential to create economic independence from each of these villages. Currently, Indonesia has a total of 70,611 villages. Of the total villages, 49.9% or 32,379 of them are underdeveloped villages. In Central Java, currently there are 40.5% of disadvantaged villages or 3,467 villages out of 8,564 villages. Village empowerment provides great benefits for the welfare of the lives of rural communities. The concept of OVOP (one village one product) is one of the concepts or models of village self- sufficiency. Research is needed to explore the potential of a village and how its development planning strategy. In the process of development, villages are empowered to be economically independent and their people's welfare will increase significantly.

Keberhasilan pembangunan negara tidak semata-mata ditentukan oleh kekayaan sumber daya alam yang melimpah, tetapi juga ditentukan oleh proses perencanaan pembangunan yang sistematis, terukur, dan menyeluruh (komprehensif). Perencanaan pembangunan memiliki peran yang sangat strategis dan vital dalam pembangunan. Keberhasilan perencanaan, salah satunya diukur dari efektifitasnya. Ada empat indikator efektivitas,  yaitu Ketepatan Waktu, Ketepatan perhitungan biaya, Ketepatan Dalam Menentukan Tujuan, dan Ketepatan Sasaran. Penelitian in menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan penentuan informan menggunakan metode snowball sampling dan analisa data menggunakan triangulasi. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa perencanaan pembangunan daerah di Kota Batu sudah efektif. Walaupun begitu, masih ada beberapa faktor penghambat yang harus diperhatikan oleh pemerintah kota Batu,  yaitu program kegiatan yang tidak sesuai dengan RPJMD atau visi-misi kepala daerah, sistem ditingkat lokal pemerintahan daerah yang belum tersinkronisasi secara maksimal, sehingga proses input data masih perlu berulang-ulang. Faktor lainnya adalah kurangnya koordinasi antar OPD. Oleh sebab itu diperlukan konsistensi dari semua elemen yang terlibat dalam perencanaan. Komitmen dari kepala daerah, kepala OPD dan elemen lain yang terlibat dalam proses perencanaan harus diperkuat.The quality of a country's growth is decided not just by the availability of plentiful natural resources but also by a formal, tangible and rigorous method of development planning. Planning for construction plays a very pragmatic and vitally significant position in planning. Planning performance, in which one is calculated by its effectiveness.

Even so, there are still some inhibiting factors that must be considered by the local government, the program of activities that are not in accordance with the RPJMD or the vision and mission of the regional head, the system at the local level of the local government that has not been synchronized maximally, so the data input process still needs be repeated. Another factor is the lack of coordination among the OPD. It requires continuity with all the components involved in preparation. Commitments will be reinforced from department leaders, manager level and other aspects participating in the planning phase.Key Words: Effectiveness; Planning; Development; Regional; Government; Governance

This study aims to explain the Strategic Design of the Regional Government in Tanjung Bira tourism development in Bulukumba Regency. This research method is qualitative with the type is a case study. Data collection in this study was carried out directly through observation and interviews. Data analysis was carried out through data reduction, data presentation and conclusion drawing. The results show that the government's strategic design in tourism development can still be less than optimal, which lies in the ineffective Tanjung Bira Tourism Development Planning and the unavailability of development land. Planners need to be extra careful about how they participate in strategic planning activities. This is based on the fact that not all approaches have the same use. Strategic design with land availability indicators is very necessary to arrange land zoning for the designation of new tourism development.

This study elucidates the spatial structure of traditional houses, and its transformation toward sustainable development of residential environments in old towns that are currently the focus of tourism development initiatives. Hexia old town in Huai’an District, China, was chosen for this study involving a field survey, questionnaire survey, and interviews. Data analysis identified three periods of residential transformation and three patterns of the residential transformation process. In all cases, there was low awareness of building conservation measures and lack of tourism development by the government, which has translated into ongoing residential transformations according to the demands of daily life. However, in the interests of tourism development, some businesses have started making use of vacant residences and traditional homes, and the relative proximity to work and home imply sustainability of residents’ lifestyles under these conditions. An improvement plan for an old town requires a thorough understanding of the circumstances surrounding residential modifications executed by residents, the problems faced in the living environment, as well as efforts to increase the residents’ awareness of the issue of sustainable living in that old town.
