Abstract

This study explores the role of the traditional practice known as Lubuk Larangan in Jambi, Indonesia, as a community-based strategy for sustaining aquatic biodiversity. The research aims to understand how this local wisdom contributes to ecological conservation while supporting social and economic sustainability. A qualitative methodology was employed, involving in-depth interviews with local community leaders, participant observation, and document analysis of local regulations and customary laws. The findings reveal that Lubuk Larangan serves as a powerful conservation tool by establishing designated areas in rivers where fishing is prohibited for a specific period. This practice not only promotes the recovery of fish populations but also fosters collective community engagement in managing natural resources. The periodic lifting of restrictions allows for communal fishing events, ensuring equitable resource distribution and strengthening social cohesion. Furthermore, the study highlights the alignment of Lubuk Larangan with global sustainability goals, particularly in achieving targets related to biodiversity conservation and sustainable resource management. This research underscores the importance of integrating traditional ecological knowledge into modern sustainability frameworks, emphasizing that local wisdom can provide innovative solutions to global environmental challenges.

Abstract

The Gasing game in Pematang Lumut Village is a traditional game that has become their cultural identity, but in its development, it has been displaced by modern digital-based games. The Gasing Game Assistance Activity in Pematang Lumut Village is a community service activity carried out by Lecturers and Students of UIN Sulthan Thaha Saifuddin Jambi to increase the existence of the top game as a cultural identity. This activity done by using the Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach, researchers collaborated with the Pematang Lumut Village community to assist the young generation in playing tops. The activities include socialization of the importance of preserving traditional games, the introduction of Gasing tops and how to play the Gasing, as well as preservation through holding competitions that will be made a routine village agenda. The success of the mentoring is measured by the impact it produces, such as the number of competition participants and the enthusiasm of the community in participating in the top game mentoring. The Pematang Lumut Village also plans to make the spinning top competition an annual agenda so that the cultural identity of Pematang Lumut Village is maintained.
