Revitalisasi Nilai Keacehan dalam Menghadapi Tantangan Perubahan Iklim Global

Abstrak

The coastal area of Gampong Baro, Peukan Bada, Aceh Besar, faces environmental degradation that reduces the ecosystem's post-disaster recovery capacity. This study explores strategic, community-based approaches to strengthen the region’s ecology. Using Community-Based Natural Resource Management theory and a descriptive qualitative case study, the study gathered data through interviews, observations, and analysis of customary documents. Results show that integrating customary law (reusam gampong), Panglima Laot structures, and youth involvement in conservation zoning and mangrove rehabilitation supports ecological strengthening. The study synthesizes local customary norms with modern ecological mitigation, offering a sustainable framework for coastal resilience. Collaboration between local wisdom and public participation proves effective for coastal ecosystem sustainability.
