Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study explores non-financial support strategies for start-up homestay entrepreneurs in rural communities on a small island in Indonesia from the perspective of international development agents. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with start-up homestay entrepreneurs regarding their needs, expectations of support, and the challenges of starting a business. A focus group interview was conducted with tourism experts with knowledge of the research area, to garner opinion about non-financial support strategies. The suggestions risen from the research findings were (i) support for entrepreneurs with experience of working in tourism-related businesses should be as specific as possible, following a preliminary consultation, and (ii) support for entrepreneurs with no experience of working in tourism-related businesses should include the provision of information about the key components of tourism with hands-on activities.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は、開発途上国における貧困層が自ら起業し経済的に自立するという世界的課題を取り上げ、その際に最も困難なスタートアップ時期に注目し、特に非金融分野における国際的な外部組織の支援戦略を探索した。 起業家と現地専門家への面接調査の結果、支援戦略を立案するうえで、起業家を、観光関係職業経験の有無と起業形態の志向性(ファミリービジネス志向とコミュニティ型ビジネス志向)の二属性から細分化するという新たな支援の戦略的枠組みを提示した。また、公正で機能的な視点から現地スタッフを採用するといった特に国際的な外部組織に期待される支援実施上の留意点も提起した。
