Abstract
This research focused on the ecotourism-based firefly conservation planning in Taro Village, Tegalalang, Gianyar, Bali. The project is a collaborative effort between Warmadewa University and Journeyman International, aimed at conserving the declining population of fireflies due to rapid urban development and changes in natural ecosystems. Fireflies, recognized as environmental quality indicators, are crucial for biodiversity, and their conservation can also support local tourism and community development. The project identifies the lack of conservation facilities and planning as key challenges. The proposed solutions include designing environmentally-friendly structures that support firefly habitats, developing glamping facilities for ecotourism, and providing training to local communities on maintaining these habitats. The project follows a multi-phase approach: conducting initial surveys and observations, preparing schematic designs, engaging in focus group discussions (FGDs), and offering training on vegetation management for firefly conservation. Key outcomes of the project include the creation of 2D and 3D schematic designs for the conservation facility, the construction of mockup buildings for glamping, and the successful execution of community workshops aimed at enhancing knowledge about sustainable practices. This project not only aims to preserve the firefly population but also seeks to boost the local economy through sustainable tourism and community empowerment
