Abstract

This study reviews integrated coastal management (ICM) practice in Indonesia’s regional autonomy law regime, particularly community engagement. It examines several laws on ICM in the current regional autonomy era and discusses various achievements and issues affecting Indonesia’s program. This is legal research examines various ICM-related legislation, secondary literature, policy plans, and the interview conducted at the Indonesian Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries. The results show that the ICM program has a legal basis in various legislation, yet it faces various implementation problems. Many legal loopholes in regulation, dependence on funding institutions, environmental pollution, mismanagement, and lack of coordination and collaboration in community engagement should be instantly resolved. Also, the local community, as ecosystem users, are powerless and often ignored. Therefore, the local communities need to be informed, their ability to manage coastal areas be improved, their livelihoods protected, and be more engaged in decision-making, especially in establishing regulations and legislations. Active community engagement in the decision-making process may improve regulatory compliance and achieve a more sustainable and democratic ICM.
