Abstract

This paper describes the participatory planning and design process in Sangliat Dol village. The village has an archaeological heritage that becomes the main tourist attraction of the Tanimbar Islands. The intention of community involvement in the design process was to prevent conflict between the proposed masterplan of the village and the aspirations of the residents. This phase is an important part of the sustainable development, as the local residents are expected to become the integral part of the tourism economy scheme of the village. The problem that appeared is that the local residents understand the value and the attractiveness of the ancient stone boat in the village but have less idea about how to manageĀ it.
