<![CDATA[The Nipah coastline in Nipah Hamlet, Malaka Village, North Lombok Regency has experienced coral reef damage that has impacted fish catches and community welfare. This community service activity aims to empower coastal communities through coral reef conservation to support the sustainability of marine ecosystems. The method used is the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, which includes the stages of discovery, dream, design, define, and destiny. The results of the activity include an increase in coral reef conservation media, specifically spider media from 70 to 80 units and table media from 5 to 6 units. Coral reef conservation is carried out through long-term monitoring of the survival and diversity of organisms to restore the functions of damaged marine ecosystems and support coastal stability. Community empowerment in coral reef conservation at Nipah Beach has significant social and economic impacts, including increased fish populations that boost local fishermen's catches and promote the development of marine tourism, creating economic opportunities for coastal merchants. while active community involvement strengthens social capital and community capacity in sustainable marine resource management, making the synergy between environmental conservation and economic well-being a crucial foundation for the sustainability of conservation programs in the area. Coral growth monitoring is planned three months later since the planting was recently completed. In conclusion, these initial coral reef conservation activities are an important step in supporting the achievement of SDG Goal 14: Life Below Water.]]>
