Abstract

Mampie Hamlet, West Sulawesi, is experiencing coastal abrasion, increasingly frequent tidal flooding, and water pollution that threaten the environment and community economy. Previous efforts, such as the installation of breakwaters, have not been effective in addressing these issues. The purpose of this community service is to increase community awareness and involvement in coastal conservation through a mangrove adoption system. The methods used include focus group discussions (FGDs) with stakeholders, participatory visual-based training, and mangrove planting and monitoring at two locations. A total of 445 mangrove seedlings were planted using an adoption system, involving the community, schools, and universities. Monitoring over three months showed that 87% of the mangroves survived at the first location, while the second location experienced higher losses due to waste and environmental disturbances. From these results, it can be concluded that the mangrove adoption system is effective in increasing community participation and planting success, although further support is needed in waste management and environmental awareness to maintain the achieved results.
