Abstract: Braja Harjosari Village is a buffer village in the Way Kambas National Park area. In supporting the tourism potential in Braja Harjosari Village, in 2022, it established community-based ecotourism village regulations. This study aims to analyze the implementation of ecotourism village regulations in Braja Harjosari Village, Lampung, focusing on human resource development and public support in community-based ecotourism management. The findings show that the active participation of stakeholders, including village officials, tourism awareness groups (Pokdarwis), Way Kambas National Park, and local communities, plays a significant role in promoting sustainable tourism and preserving the local environment and culture. Formal communication and mutual agreements among stakeholders ensure effective information delivery. Training programs held by Pokdarwis and village officials have been shown to improve the technical skills and business acumen of the community, supporting sustainable ecotourism development. The synergy between Pokdarwis and village officials, supported by good regulations, has driven economic growth while preserving the environment. Community awareness of environmental preservation and openness to visitors create a positive cycle that supports the sustainability of ecotourism, improves community welfare, and preserves biodiversity and local culture in Braja Harjosari Village.
