<![CDATA[Indonesia harbors over 20% of the world’s mangrove forests, positioning its coastal wetlands as a critical nexus of global blue carbon storage and climate resilience. This study aims to evaluate how diverse environmental management approaches influence mangrove socio-ecological resilience and contribute to Indonesia’s national climate change mitigation targets. A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted using the PRISMA framework, searching using Scopus Database peer-reviewed articles published between 2015 and 2025, yielding a final corpus of 20 articles selected through multi-stage screening against predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were synthesized thematically across publication trends, research types, subject areas, and socio-ecological mitigation outcomes. The findings demonstrate that rigid, top-down conservation policies frequently trigger resource conflicts and illegal re-encroachment, whereas integrated strategies such as the tumpang sari (silvo-fishery) model, community-based ecological rehabilitation, and ecotourism funded directly via the decentralized Village Fund (Dana Desa) demonstrably secure long-term carbon sinks while alleviating rural coastal poverty. These results highlight substantial evidence gaps regarding long-term monitoring and publication bias toward Scopus-indexed sources. It is recommended that national environmental agencies align emission reduction commitments with community-led economic incentives, including Village Fund (Dana Desa) transfers, to guarantee ecological permanence and climate justice in nature-based mangrove management frameworks.]]>
