Abstract

This study examines cultural management practices used to improve environmental quality in the historical area of Kampung Melayu especially focused on Dadapsari and Kuningan area in Semarang City. The study investigates the relationship between cultural heritage and environmental management using ethnographic research, community surveys, and policy analysis. The study findings suggest that sustainable environmental development in Kampung Melayu requires the involvement of the local residents and local government. Furthermore, the growth of Kampung Melayu requires specific spatial planning, which is guided by government laws such as the Spatial and Environmental Plan (RTBL) and the Environmental Impact Assessment (AMDAL) of Semarang City. These activities seek to improve environmental quality while setting land use standards consistent with the current Kampung Melayu Spatial Plan.
