Mister Lingua Business Model Integration for Sustainability: A Systematic Literature Review From Potential to Problems
Abstract
Wawonduru Village in Dompu Regency, West Nusa Tenggara, is an area with rich natural and social resources that have the potential to be developed through a community-based social entrepreneurship approach. However, challenges such as limited access to education, energy, and markets hinder the optimization of this potential. This article aims to develop a conceptual and strategic framework for a sustainable social business model with a case study of the development of "Mister Lingua by Dreams Foundation", which integrates five micro-business units: Fun Farm (livestock agrotourism), Bamboo School (SDGs education and village technology), Mini Tulip Studio (green photo tourism), PasangDIKita.ID (household solar power installation), and Ice and Coffee (local herbal drink innovation). This study uses a systematic literature review method by examining 32 scientific articles, international organization reports, and global case studies, especially from MIT D-Lab and sustainable businesses in New York City. The results of the thematic analysis show that the integration of ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) principles, social innovation, and experiential learning approaches are important elements in supporting the sustainability of village-based business models.
