Abstract

Abstract: Jor Bay in East Lombok - West Nusatenggara is a small bay system characterized by a common pool resource, in which found a contestation of utilization among resources users. Even though the bay has been managed by a local institution, namely Lembaga Pemangku Awiq-awiq Teluk Jor (LPATJ), the role and perform of institutions in managing the bay is still very low. To ensure the sustainability of the bay, the need to converge the different resource users' interests by balancing utilization to accommodate economical, ecological and social dimensions. This study aimed to assess the sustainability status of bay management and design future sustainable bay management strategies. To measure the sustainability status, we used a sustainability index intended to develop to bay ecosystem form. The current sustainability status of Jor Bay management showed a moderate level. The institutional dimension provides the greatest sustainability value, while the lowest degree shows in the ecological dimension. The governability of Jor Bay management shows low institutional interaction, limited scale (local), minimal initiative and low willingness to cooperate among elements. For this reason, the ICM (integrated coastal management) based management mechanism needs to be strengthened to ensure the functioning of the Jor Bay management system.
