Navigating the Blue: Integrating Indonesia’s Oceans, Fisheries, and Ecotourism for Global Climate Change Action
Bale Sawala, Universitas Padjadjaran, Jatinangor, West Java, Indonesia | September 3-5, 2024
Indonesia, renowned as the world’s largest archipelagic nation, consist of an extensive collection of 16,056 islands. With a coastline stretching beyond 95,180 kilometres, Indonesia ranks as the second largest globally, following Canada. Indonesia boasts unparalleled marine and coastal biodiversity within this intricate interplay of land and sea. It encompasses an estimated 108,000 kilometres of coastline, accounting for roughly 16 percent of the planet’s coral reefs, and providing habitat for more than 2,000 diverse reef fish species. The diverse marine tapestry of Indonesia is further enhanced by micro-fauna and mega-fauna. This intricate weave of marine ecosystem positioned Indonesia as a haven for marine wildlife for its profound natural heritage.
