Strategi Pengembangan Identitas Lokal Melalui Desain Papan Nama Jalan Di Desa Kosgoro Musi Rawas

Abstract

Each region or area must have a unique identity as its identifier. The presence of this identity is very important because it has a significant positive impact on local residents and also on the area itself. If an area does not have an identifying mark such as a road brand design, it will be difficult to recognize and lose the characteristics that differentiate it from other areas. KUKERTA STAI – BS is a program to dedicate oneself as a student to a group that integrates education with practical experience in the field, covering various fields of technology and science in a cross-sectoral and holistic manner. In 2024, one of the KUKERTA STAI – BS locations will take place in Kosgoro Village, Ulu Terawas Tengah Lakitan District, Mura Regency. Kosgoro Village consists of six villages. Based on surveys and direct observations in Kosgoro Village, it was found that there were no road signs separating the hamlets. Street name signs are signs placed on the borders between districts that provide information about the area where you live to local and external communities. Therefore, post group three from KUKERTA STAI – BS, consisting of 9 members, implemented a program for making street name signs as barriers between sub-districts in Kosgoro Village. The purpose of making signposts for Kadus boundaries is to provide benefits as a wayfinder. This activity ran smoothly and on time, with high community interest and support from Kosgoro Village officials.
