On November 21, 2021, the Muhammadiyah Paninjauan Branch Leader was given the mandate of a 5 ha waqf land by the local Walinagari. The land is planned for the development of a natural environment of green open space in the form of an ecopark in collaboration with a Muhammadiyah university which has a Faculty of Tourism and/or Creative Economy. The method used in this research is a literature review by taking the views of Mousa Shakeri, et al (Professor of Iranian Architecture) regarding Eco-Park Design and Dimitrios Diamantis (researcher at Les Roches Management School, Tourism Research Center, Switzerland) related to the concept of ecotourism which is then combined with the mission and vision of the Faculty of Tourism and Creative Economy which is owned by Muhammadiyah. The concept offered for the Ecopark Review is EDIBRACONEMS (Educatings | Innovatings | Bridgings | Brandings | Actuatings | Collaboratings | Networkings I Modelings I Servings) which is an ecopark in the format of a tourist village with the establishment of a series of educational institutions (schools of nature) based on the creative economy to produce various innovations in 16 sub-sectors of the creative economy, placing Muhammadiyah universities as consultants and facilitators as well as collaborators for learning forums for students of the Faculty of Tourism and Creative Economy of Muhammadiyah Higher Education, where local communities get a central place through PAIYO Brand which has 12 business channel as a facility that can be enjoyed by the ecopark visitors.
