Abstract :

The primary objective of this research is to analyze the transformation of tourism in Indonesia towards a green economy, focusing on creating sustainable and environmentally friendly job opportunities. This study employs a qualitative approach, utilizing policy analysis and case studies of high-priority destinations like Lake Toba and Labuan Bajo to assess the integration of green economy principles into tourism practices. The findings indicate that investments in public transportation infrastructure and green technologies, such as electric vehicles, enhance tourist experiences while significantly reducing carbon emissions. Additionally, implementing carbon pricing policies is expected to accelerate economic recovery in the post-pandemic context by promoting responsible tourism. Collaboration among government entities, academia, and society emerges as crucial for creating green jobs that benefit all stakeholders. The research underscores the importance of participatory approaches in sustainable tourism development to raise awareness about resource conservation. Ultimately, the transformation towards a green economy in Indonesia’s tourism sector not only aims to attract more tourists but also aligns with global commitments to combat climate change, fostering a resilient industry that benefits local communities and the environment.
