Abstract

Sustainable Tourism Development is a form of tourism that considers its beneficial impact on the environment and local communities. To maintain benefits for the local communities, sustainable development must be integrated with the community's participation as the destination's leading actor. Sustainable development must be able to provide benefits directly to society. One of the ways for people to experience the benefits of tourism is through Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). People usually run small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) from the local communities. The fact that people run Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) from local communities needs to be reflected in the benefits felt by the locals. Low competitiveness from the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) may be the problem; however, more studies need to explore this area. This study collects existing literature regarding sustainable tourism development, especially literature regarding the involvement of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the community that contribute to tourism activities. This study is a literature study to determine how far this topic has been studied and whether this topic can indeed be continued into a follow-up study that requires further data processing.
