Abstract

Mangrove ecosystems have experienced pressure and decreased function due to abrasion and high land conversion activities for pond expansion. The government has tried to increase the role of the community for mangrove conservation but this effort has not obtained optimal results. This study aims to determine the understanding of coastal communities about Mangroves and community involvement in Mangrove ecosystem management. Methods of data collection using a questionnaire instrument, field observations, and in-depth interviews. Data analysis was done descriptively tabulated. The selection of respondents using purposive sampling. The results of the study stated that 60% of the community understood the importance of mangroves for their lives. The community understands that mangroves are a source of livelihood for the community and protect the coast from waves and abrasion. The community is actively involved in Mangrove planting program activities (53%) but based on activities initiated by the government in certain groups. Knowledge and community involvement in mangrove forest management are closely related to important community decisions to participate actively in mangrove forest management. Therefore, efforts to increase knowledge need to be increased through outreach activities and development of community empowerment programs.
