Abstract: Peatland management has its dilemma between meeting community needs and peatland sustainability. The use of peatlands without paying attention to the unique characteristics of the peat itself might make the peatlands degraded (dry), lose nutrients, and cannot return to their original condition.Riau Province is the second province that has the largest peatland in Indonesia, where the area of peatland is 3,864,414 Ha, or 60.1% of the peatland on the island of Sumatra. With an estimated peat thickness of less than 300 cm covering an area of 1,417,762 Ha (36.7%) and a thickness of more than 300 cm covering an area of 2,449,652 Ha (63.3%). This study employed The Quintuple Helix Innovation Model. This model described the interaction between the five helixes/components between the government, peatland user industries, universities, the media, and the surrounding community for economic development to increase community income and the regional economy.the results of this study indicate that the community empowerment strategy in Banglas Barat Village based on The Quintuple Helix Innovation Method was currently unable to be implemented properly, and following the theory, because there were still limited main supporting facilities and infrastructure for the implementation of innovation.The fulfillment of the main facilities and infrastructure such as electricity, clean water, telecommunications, and transportation must be carried out immediately. Of the five helixes involved, it is necessary to optimize research and service activities carried out by universities, provide business capital assistance to the community, optimize peatland protection with the aim of not changing the peat ecosystem, even though the community can still carry out economic activities on it, develop telecommunications and internet networks in villages, and optimize more intense socialization on regulations for preserving peatlands and regulations on community economic development.This is very necessary because peat villages have different characteristics both in terms of people and land.
Key words: Community Empowerment, The Quintuple Helix Peatlands, Innovation Model.
