Abstract

Mangrove rehabilitation is an activity to replant mangrove ecosystems that have been damaged. This study aimed to measure the physical condition of rehabilitated mangroves, analyze the role of the government, and measure community perceptions, aspirations and actions in mangrove rehabilitation activities. This research was conducted in August - October 2019 at Lentera Merah and Badrika Mangrove Tourism Park, Bengkulu City. The data collection of mangrove vegetation structure used purposive sampling method, while the respondent’s data collection used the insindental method. The results showed that the mangrove vegetation structure data in Lentera Merah could not be calculated, while in the Badrika Mangrove Tourism Park there were two types of mangroves found (Rhizophora apiculata and Sonneratia alba) which were categorized as saplings and seedlings. The government agency that has carried out mangrove rehabilitation was the Environment and Forestry Service (DLHK) and Watershed and Protection Forest Management Centers (BPDASHL) Ketahun. The government had a funding role in the form of providing seedlings, but the government had not yet carried out counseling activities. The government had not yet monitored and evaluated the rehabilitation activities at Lentera Merah, while in the Badrika Mangrove Tourism Park these activities had been carried out. The level of community perceptions, aspirations and actions in mangrove ecosystem rehabilitation activities in the two locations was categorized as moderate.
