Abstract

This research investigates the burgeoning environmental consciousness within the Tambakrejo community, an urban coastal populace in Semarang, Central Java. It examines how environmentalism has evolved as a response to the unique challenges faced by this community due to its proximity to the coast and the impacts of urbanisation. Employing a qualitative approach, the study collects data through in-depth interviews and participatory observations. The objective is to understand the factors influencing the community’s environmental attitudes and practices. The results of the research show that initially, public knowledge and awareness were still low amidst declining environmental and social conditions; third parties outside the community and government could initiate knowledge and community movements to be more aware of environmental conservation, as shown in the case of the CAMAR group in Tambakrejo, Semarang.
