Abstract

Women’s participation in mangrove forest management is vital for effective planning policies, increasing women's empowerment, and better forest governance. Despite their central role in coastal livelihoods, women’s involvement in mangrove management remains poorly understood and often marginalized. This study aims to assess the roles of women and men in mangrove forest management and analyze the extent of women’s participation in Pantai Bahagia, Bekasi, Indonesia. The research employed qualitative methods, including in-depth and structured interviews, participant observation, and analysis using Arnstein’s Ladder of Citizen Participation. Data were collected from 54 respondents, comprising women from the KEBAYA group and key stakeholders, and analyzed using NVivo 11 for thematic coding. The results indicate that while women play essential roles in nursery and maintenance activities, their participation in planning, decision-making, and information access remains limited. Gender norms and socio-economic constraints, such as limited confidence, restricted mobility, and lower education levels, contribute to this disparity. Men remain dominant in decision-making and physically demanding tasks like planting. The study underscores the need for targeted interventions, including capacity-building programs, transparent information dissemination, inclusive decision-making forums, and strong multi-stakeholder partnerships. Enhancing women's participation in mangrove conservation could improve forest governance and contribute to more inclusive and sustainable resource management.

Abstract

Mangrove ecosystems are vital coastal habitats that provide ecological, economic, and medicinal benefits. Sonneratia alba, a dominant mangrove species in Muara Gembong, Indonesia, is traditionally utilized for food products and herbal remedies; however, limited studies have compared its organ-specific phytochemical profiles. This study investigates the qualitative composition of secondary metabolites in the leaves and fruits of S. alba using 96% ethanol extracts and standard phytochemical screening methods. The results revealed that both plant parts contained saponins, tannins, phenolics, flavonoids, and glycosides, while triterpenoids were exclusively detected in the leaves, and steroids were absent in both organs. These findings highlight distinct organ-specific variations in secondary metabolites, suggesting that leaves may possess greater therapeutic potential than fruits. The identified bioactive compounds exhibit antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anticancer properties, underscoring their relevance for natural drug discovery and the development of functional foods. Moreover, promoting the pharmacological value of S. alba contributes to enhancing community awareness and participation in mangrove conservation. This study provides a scientific basis for future exploration of targeted bioactivity and sustainable utilization of S. alba in coastal ecosystem management.
