Indonesia Tourism Village Award (Anugerah Desa Wisata Indonesia / ADWI)
Provides national award recognising and developing top-performing Indonesian villages, supporting long-term sustainable commercialization and growth.
Anugerah Desa Wisata Indonesia (ADWI) is the annual award program for tourism villages registered on JADESTA, Indonesia's national village-tourism network. The record places it under Kemenparekraf, with post-2024 administration moving to Kemenpar. Every JADESTA-registered village is enrolled automatically, so there is no separate application. The award itself is not a cash prize. Instead, participants receive visibility, mentoring, and ministry assistance for tourism development, and winners move into the DPUP pipeline for possible follow-on funding. The program is restricted to tourism villages in Indonesia and runs on an annual cycle. Its real value is administrative: it turns registry status into a funded development path. Success is largely about being in the right administrative network before the cycle opens. Villages that already sit in JADESTA and have local tourism structures in place get the clearest path through the program. ADWI matters less as a one-off prize than as a gateway into the ministry's village-tourism support stack.
