Strategi Rehabilitasi Ekosistem Padang Lamun sebagai Implementasi Tujuan Pembangunan Berkelanjutan (SDGs)

Abstract

The seagrass ecosystem is one of the constituent components of the coastal ecosystem
which plays a very important role both ecologically and economically. In line with the 14th
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), namely preserving and utilizing marine resources in a
sustainable manner - the target for achieving the SDGs in protecting marine ecosystems is to manage
and protect coastal ecosystems, including the seagrass ecosystems within them. The research method
was carried out by collecting secondary data from various sources of literature studies, journals,
books, and government publications. The research used a descriptive analysis method in order to
obtain a more in-depth description of the object of study. LIPI's research results report that the
condition of seagrass beds in the western part of Indonesia in 2020 is classified as bad with a
damaged/poor status, the total percentage of seagrass cover is only less than 29.9% as a result of high
human activities that are destructive to seagrass ecosystems. A macro policy is needed as a basic
reference for rules for managing seagrass ecosystems based on community empowerment and
institutional capacity in an effort to rehabilitate seagrass ecosystems in an area
