Pemanfaatan Bambu: Sebagai Upaya Pelestarian Budaya dan Pemberdayaan Masyarakat

Abstract

Community service in Masaran Village, Tragah District, Bangkalan Regency was attended by several young people and women. The use of bamboo has been completed in several activities. Bamboo is made into a traditional playing tool, namely stilts, to preserve Indonesian culture. Another use for bamboo is that it is processed into handicrafts, then assistance is provided to village communities. The abundance of bamboo in the village would be a shame if left alone. This bamboo utilization program can increase the potential of bamboo by preserving culture and handicraft businesses. This community empowerment aims to motivate, train, practice and assist the community in preserving culture through games and innovating the manufacture of handicrafts as a village community effort. The activity began with a search for bamboo, then socialization of community service activities and assistance with handicrafts. All are applied in stilt games and handicraft activities
