The details of the analysis results found are: (1) appreciative discovery, (2) community mapping, (3) area search, (4) mapping of associations and institutions, (5) individual asset mapping, (6) financial circulation, And (7) priority scale. We obtained this information from community figures such as the village head and local village officials, Village Head, RT, RW, Village residents, and religious figures. So we see that there is a lot of village potential that can be managed and we can map some of the potential that exists in Karangtengah Village, such as land potential., potential cultural diversity, and the potential of MSMEs.
