Abstract/Summary:
This paper describes the experiences and lessons learned by Proyek Pesisir in establishing community-based marine sanctuaries at one field site within the Minahasa Regency. It is argued that community-based and decentralized coral reef and coastal management initiatives can be established within the current institutional framework given the new openness within government and demands by the public for governance reforms.
