The Impact of Village Governance Environmental Management on Community-Based Mangrove Development in Karang City, Bandar Lampung

Abstract

Local governments have a significant and strategic position in development because they are at the site/field level that is directly related to the community. In reality, each local government organization has a program in the same place, so there is no program coordination between local government organizations. Environmentally aware village governance emphasizes the role of local governments in sustainable and environmentally aware development. The analytical framework examines the relationship between four independent variables [X1] Program, [X2] Environmental Governance, [X3] Market Access, [X4] Institutional Collaboration, with dependent variables [Y1] Sustainable Development and [Y2] Collaborative Governance-Pentahelix. This study focuses on the significant role of effective institutional collaboration in achieving sustainable development and good governance. To optimize sustainable development and governance in forest landscapes, a holistic approach that combines strong institutional collaboration and environmental governance is essential. In addition, strong environmental policies at the village level must support mangrove forest conservation, which is essential for maintaining coastal biodiversity. The results of the study indicate that institutional collaboration and environmental governance are significant key factors in achieving sustainable development and good governance, while market access and programs do not have a significant impact on sustainable development. Institutional collaboration directly contributes to sustainable development and good governance. Consequently, this study shows that strong and effective environmental governance is needed for environmental management and sustainable development in the village. Thus, this study shows that to achieve success in environmental management and sustainable development in the village, strong environmental governance and effective institutional collaboration are needed.
