The purpose of this study was to describe the profile of watershed community participation. The type of research used is descriptive qualitative research with a case study design. Data collection was carried out through observation and in-depth interviews with the community in Banjararum Village, Singosari District, Malang Regency. The results of the study show that community behaviour does not reflect the awareness and involvement of efforts to save the watershed environment as evidenced by the following phenomena: (1) community knowledge about saving the environment is still limited; (2) there is still a lot of environmental damage around the watershed; and, (3) there are negative community behaviours that damage the environment around the watershed. Based on these findings, it is suggested that educative efforts be made to the community, especially around the watershed to form a comprehensive understanding of the importance of efforts to save the environment. © 2020 Primrose Hall Publishing Group.
