Abstract

This study aimed to develop the vocational village concept based on the values of local wisdom in the community and the inclusivity of stakeholders in the implementation of vocational village programs in North Aceh. This was descriptive qualitative research. Data were collected through observation, interviews, focus group discussion, and documentation. The research subjects were village officials, community leaders, businessmen and workers in vocational villages. The research was conducted in four vocational villages in North Aceh and involved various related departments of the government of Aceh Utara in data collection. The results showed that the vocational village concept implemented in North Aceh had not been well-developed. The concept of vocational villages that prioritizes the superior potential of the village is constrained in its implementation because: a) it has the lack of the integration of local wisdom values in planning, implementing and supervising the vocational village programs in North Aceh; b) it has not involved the parties intensively in all those stages; c) the socialization of vocational village programs based on local wisdom is limited. On the other hand, North Aceh has enormous potential of natural resources to improve the economic welfare of rural communities. This research is expected to be a reference for local government in developing policies and programs to improve the economy of rural communities in North Aceh.
