Dieng Wetan Village is one of the areas in Wonosobo Regency that has tourism potential. In publicizing their tourism potential, local youth released an Instagram account @desadieng. However, the publication of tourism through this account is a problem. This is due to several factors. First, the lack of human resources (HR) from the youth organizations of Dieng Wetan Village as managers. Second, the need to strengthen HR skills in terms of content writing, photo and video production as a medium for publication of regional tourism potential. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out a training in the production of written and photo content for youth members of Dieng Wetan Village as the manager of the official @desadieng account as a form of publication of regional tourism potential. The training was carried out in four stages, including situation analysis, planning, implementation, and evaluation.
