Abstract

Indonesia is rich in local wisdoms, including in fisheries management. Fisheries management by applying local wisdom is an effort to utilize fisheries resource based on traditional noble values designated to people’s welfare. Research aims to collect and analyse local wisdoms related to fisheries management in Indonesia, the concepts offered, their advantages and disadvantages, as well as efforts for their conservation. Method applied in this research is literature review, main articles collected from international and national journals, and other relevant resources as supportive data. Analysis on 24 articles show that there are 3 fisheries local wisdoms which have been researched the most: Panglima Laot-Adat Laot, kewang-sasi, and awig-awig. Panglima Laot in Aceh is considered to be the one that has strong concept and more advantages as compared to others. However, violations to its customary law still take places. Noted also that researches are not exploring the perspective of the people who are regulated by related local wisdoms. Efforts to conserve local wisdoms by building the capacity and integrating their values into formal law as management model is required. Increasing violations against Panglima Laot-Adat Laot customary law, thus, suggest research to explore people’s current perspective toward local wisdom.

Highlights

Cultural Cultural richness and diversity are strongly related to biodiversity; places such as Central Africa, Amazonia, and South East Asia are the most important sources for human civilization and cultural development, including natural resources management [1]
People living in coastal areas almost all over Indonesia own and practice local wisdom in managing coastal natural resources, including fisheries, which is essentially a process of controlling human livelihoods activities in the areas so that they can be performed wisely by obeying the rules of environmental sustainability
This literature review aimed to collect, compare, and analyse local wisdom in Indonesia related to fisheries management to assess their potential to be further explored and developed as a model for national fisheries management

Summary

Introduction

Cultural Cultural richness and diversity are strongly related to biodiversity; places such as Central Africa, Amazonia, and South East Asia are the most important sources for human civilization and cultural development, including natural resources management [1]. Natural resources management based on local wisdom is quite common as well in Indonesia. People living in coastal areas almost all over Indonesia own and practice local wisdom in managing coastal natural resources, including fisheries, which is essentially a process of controlling human livelihoods activities in the areas so that they can be performed wisely by obeying the rules of environmental sustainability. In the end, will give advantages to both people’s welfare and environmental resources’ sustainability [3]
