Participatory Management in Mangrove Ecotourism: A Strategy to Support the Green Economy in Maros Regency
The present study focused on participatory management in mangrove ecotourism management in Ampekale Village, Maros Regency, through the role of local communities. The objective of this study was to analyze the role of local communities in mangrove ecotourism management with a view to supporting the green economy in Maros Regency. This research is of a descriptive qualitative nature and employs AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) data analysis techniques. The findings of this study suggest that the criteria of education derived from visitors, awareness and education are pivotal to participatory management in mangrove ecotourism management. Another criterion to be considered is economic empowerment, which is also the primary means by which these objectives may be achieved. The criteria above are derived from the following: income from ecotourism, employment opportunities, and local businesses. It is anticipated that the integration of the community in training, collaboration, and promotion in management will facilitate the sustainable development of mangrove ecotourism, thereby ensuring the provision of benefits to both local communities and the environment. This approach is expected to contribute to the realization of a green economy in Maros Regency. This study also contributes to the development of local government policies and offers best practice recommendations for the participatory management of mangrove ecotourism in supporting a green economy framework.
