| dc.description.abstract | One of the Marine Sanctuary or Daerah Perlindungan Laut (DPL) in the Pangkajene Kepulauan (Pangkep) district is located at Mattiro Labangeng village. It was founded as an effort to save coral reef ecosystems and to prosper the rural community; especially the local fishermen. However, the existence of this DPL does not automatically solve problems that arose out of coral reef ecosystem management. Few initiatives are therefore needed to restore the original condition gradually. In order to investigate the roles and benefits of the presence of DPL in the conservation of coral reef ecosystem, an assessment is necessary in evaluating the success of the effectiveness of the management of DPL at Mattiro Labangeng village. By this regards, the study intends to evaluate indicators of the effectiveness and to assess how effective is the management of DPL at Mattiro Labangeng village.
