Community-based tourism relies entirely on the community's ability and stakeholder interests to balance well-being and desires. This study aims to explore whether Community-Based Tourism can promote the desires and well-being of communities that were previously marginalized due to slum conditions, isolation, and negative stigma due to criminality issues. This study used a Qualitative case study method in Kampung Caping, Pontianak, Indonesia. Data in this study were obtained through participant observation, media content analysis from the Kampung Caping website, and semi-structured interviews with local community groups. The study's findings are, since 2018, 1) The community has transformed by controlling the making and marketing of caping as a local livelihood, 2) Increasing decent and good living standards, and 3) CBT affects the interaction, solidarity, and social structure of local communities. This study emphasizes the importance of community involvement, cultural preservation, and improving well-being in achieving sustainable tourism through CBT.
