  • Abstract

    This study aims to analyze the determination of sustainable village independence based on Tri Hita Karana in improving community welfare ‎in Bangli Regency. This study uses the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and Importance-Performance Map Analysis (IPMA) methods ‎to identify the relationship between the quality of village human resources, Tri Hita Karana cultural values, and the welfare of independent ‎village communities. The results of the study indicate that the quality of village human resources, which includes aspects of knowledge, ‎education and training, and ability, plays a significant role in supporting the implementation of Tri Hita Karana cultural values consisting of ‎Parahyangan, Pawongan, and Palemahan elements. The application of these cultural values has a direct positive impact on improving infrastructure, positive affect, and social harmony as indicators of the welfare of independent village communities. IPMA analysis shows that the ‎Palemahan indicator has high performance but with a relatively low level of importance, so it requires optimization to improve community ‎welfare sustainably. The results of this study provide implications for policymakers in formulating village development strategies based on ‎local wisdom to achieve sustainable development‎.
