Kearifan Lokal yang Menginspirasi Harmoni Global
Abstract
In the middle global ecological and spiritual crisis, ”Sumur Amber” in Blitar offers solutions based on local wisdom. The research methodology used a qualitative approach with an ethnographic research type. Data were collected through participant observation and in-depth interviews with key informants in several villages in Blitar Regency. Data analysis used the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldana to explore the contribution of the “Sumur Amber” to global harmony. The results show three dimensions of universal wisdom: ecological (traditional water conservation), spiritual (human-nature balance), and socio-cultural (mutual cooperation). As many as 87% of tourists experience a transformation beyond conventional tourism. The philosophy of "memayu hayuning bawana" in line with the SDGs and demonstrates the integration of traditional wisdom with modern tourism. Community based management creates a regenerative model that inspires a shift in global perspective: from exploitation to regeneration, individualism to collectivity. “ Sumur Amber” in Blitar becomes a living laboratory that teaches global harmony through respect for local roots.
