ABSTRACT
The current community service activity aimed to empower local communities in the Geopetroleum area of Bojonegoro through the development of local superior products and the application of storynomics geosite concepts. The program was carried out through a pentahelix collaboration involving lecturers, students, local government, and community groups. The stages included potential mapping, training on product innovation and digital marketing, and strengthening tourism storytelling. The results showed that community members successfully developed unique geopetroleum-themed batik products and improved their entrepreneurial skills through branding and digital marketing. Youth groups were also able to design and promote educational tourism narratives highlighting local geology, history, and culture. In addition, the establishment of the Geosite Forum among partner villages enhanced institutional collaboration for sustainable development. It can be concluded that the integration of product innovation and storynomics approaches effectively strengthened the community’s economic resilience, environmental awareness, and local identity in supporting sustainable geotourism development.
