This study aims to reveal the forms of participation of the Tolaki people in empowerment programs and identify factors that support and hinder such participation in Konawe District, Kolaka Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province. The method applied is a qualitative descriptive method, with data collection techniques in the form of observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation of eight informants, including traditional leaders, community leaders, and local residents. Analysis using Participation Theory (Arnstein) shows that community involvement is at the level of partnership and delegation of authority, although not yet complete. Empowerment Theory (Chambers) emphasizes that active involvement can strengthen the capabilities and independence of the community. Meanwhile, Social Interaction Theory is used to explain the causes of the non-involvement of some communities, especially due to minimal social communication and alienation in participatory networks. The study findings indicate that community empowerment is carried out in several aspects, such as economic, educational, and cultural aspects. Community involvement typically increases when programs are tailored to local needs and involve the community directly.
