Abstract:
Eco-Vihara was established by applying nine criteria aligned with the SDGs Regional Action Plan in the Papua Bird’s Head region. It is crucial to reform current policies and strategies at the basic and intermediate levels to achieve this alignment. Employing SWOT and AHP analyses, this study identified effective strategies for improving Eco-Vihara implementation at Buddha Prabha Vihara in Manokwari Regency, Buddha Sorong Vihara in Sorong City, and Buddha Sasana Vihara in Sorong Regency. The SWOT analysis revealed Internal Factor Evaluation (IFE) and External Factor Evaluation (EFE) values of 2.96 and 3.17, respectively, positioning the matrix in the aggressive quadrant-highlighting a focus on leveraging strengths and opportunities. AHP analysis further prioritized two key strengths and three opportunities, culminating in six strategic recommendations to strengthen leadership, collaboration, and funding mechanisms.
