Abstract

This research was conducted in Takalar Regency, Makassar, focusing on Takalar City, which has mangroves, while Topejawa Village does not. The study aims to describe the community’s response to the benefits of mangroves, their impact on daily life, and how communities in mangrove-free areas perceive the potential of this ecosystem from economic, climate, and environmental perspectives. The Research adopts a mixed-methods approach structured into two key stages: observation and descriptive analysis. The results of the observation show that the community in Topejawa is aware of mangroves, presenting potential for development into a mangrove conservation zone that complements the existing tourist area. The descriptive analysis reveals that 77% of the community responded positively to the presence of mangroves, while 23% gave negative responses, indicating that, overall, the community's acceptance of mangroves is generally positive. The mapping indicates that Takalar City (Zone A) tends to view mangroves in terms of environmental benefits and climate mitigation, while Topejawa (Zone B) sees them more as an economic opportunity.
