Description

Duong Trung Le leads a large team asking in 2026 who gains and who loses when marine protected areas are set up along coasts in eastern Indonesia. Such reserves protect sea life, but their effects on poor fishing communities are rarely measured with care.

Household surveys covering more than 10,000 homes in 180 settlements between 2010 and 2017 supplied the data. Poverty fell overall, and reserves caused no short-term economic losses or wider gaps in measured wealth. Perceived progress lagged, though, especially in households headed by women. Where women joined community groups more fully, gender gaps shrank, pointing to participation as a lever for fairer conservation.
