Abstract

Community access to forest management within protected areas has been strengthened by the enactment of a policy known as social forestry. Data indicates that the achievements of the social forestry program through 2025 amount to 8.3 million hectares, or approximately 54% of the national target of 15.3 million hectares. However, behind these program achievements, there remain a number of challenges on the ground, such as limited capacity among beneficiary groups, bureaucratic obstacles, and insufficient post-approval support. The objective of this study is to determine the level of understanding, participation, as well as institutional arrangements and support following the designation of social forestry areas in the Tabona urban village. This study employed a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative descriptive methods, with research subjects selected using provocative sampling. Data analysis involved data collection, data condensation, data presentation, and drawing conclusions and verification. The results of the study indicate that the community’s level of knowledge regarding the social forestry program is relatively good, ranging from 73.3% to 93.3% across all measured indicators. Community participation showed fairly good results, with the percentage of involvement in some indicators exceeding 73%. The community’s overall perception of the benefits of the social forestry program fell into the “agree” category, with an average score of 34.2%. Institutional strength indicated a robust traditional-based internal system at 73.3%. Keywords: Social forestry, Participation, Perceptions, Tabona Village Institutions

Abstract

Mangrove ecosystems are among the most carbon-rich coastal ecosystems, storing substantial amounts of carbon in biomass and sediments. The Gambesi mangrove forest, located on the southern coast of Ternate Island, North Maluku, Indonesia, plays an important ecological role in coastal protection, biodiversity support, and climate change mitigation, yet it faces mounting anthropogenic pressure from land conversion, household waste, and coastal abrasion. This study aims to estimate the carbon stock of the Gambesi mangrove forest and to analyze its contribution to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 13 (Climate Action), SDG 14 (Life Below Water), and SDG 15 (Life on Land). Data were collected from five 10 m × 10 m observation plots using purposive sampling. Tree diameter at breast height (DBH) and species composition were recorded. Above-ground biomass (AGB) was calculated using species-specific allometric equations, and carbon stock was derived using a carbon conversion factor of 0.47. The results indicate that the total carbon stock of the Gambesi mangrove forest estimated at the results show that a total carbon stock of above-ground is 200.47 ton/ha (CO₂-eq is 735.72 ton/ha) and below-ground is 391.18 tons/ha of SOC (CO2-eq 1435.64 tons/ha). This area is dominated by the species Rhizophora apiculata and Sonneratia alba. These findings confirm the substantial climate mitigation value of the remaining mangrove stands in Gambesi and protection as a concrete local contribution to national and global SDG targets.
