This study explores the local wisdom of coastal communities in Cirebon in preserving mangrove ecosystems and the social, cultural, and religious values that support it. Using a descriptive qualitative approach through literature review, the study finds that conservation efforts include collective planting, customary norms, ecological traditions, limited use, and community-based monitoring. While these practices strengthen environmental sustainability and social solidarity, economic pressures and limited awareness remain challenges. Collaboration among stakeholders is therefore essential to sustain mangrove preservation.
