EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The USAID Sustainable Ecosystem Advance (SEA) project is a form of USAID support to the Indonesian government regarding the management of fisheries and marine resources, including biodiversity conservation. This project lasts for five years, starting in 2016 and ending in 2021. The working areas of the SEA Project include North Maluku Province (6 Marine Protected Areas; MPAs), Maluku Province (5 MPAs), and West Papua Province (5 MPAs), all of which are part of the State Fisheries Management Area of the Republic of Indonesia (WPPNRI) 715.
The socio-economic survey in each MPA area aims to provide an overview of communities' socio-economic conditions before and after the SEA Project. The survey was conducted using the household survey (all MPAs), Focus Group Discussion, and Key Informant Interviews (not all MPA). The number of respondents at the baseline survey (2017/2018) was 2,963 households, and the post-baseline survey (2020) was 985 households. The decrease in the number of respondents in the post-baseline survey was caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, which limited mobility between regions in Indonesia.
Data on education facilities in 16 MPAs show that access (for school-age children) to junior and senior high school education is minimal. These two facilities are usually located in the district capital, far from the residential area. Limited access to educational facilities should be a concern for the local government because they need to ensure that all children fulfill their rights to school.
From the household survey, we learned that fishing is the primary source of livelihood. In several areas, however, farming is more dominant than fishing. Most households have alternative livelihood
Most of the households in the 16 MPAs own a boat that functions to earn a living and for transportation. Many homes in the region have a motorless boat, followed by a boat with an internal motor.
Households in some MPAs can identify the best time to fish. Some, however, stated that the best time to fish is uncertain. Households in all MPAs are capable of identifying five types of frequently caught fish. Also, they can identify charismatic and important biota.
Generally, fishers sell their catch in nearby markets or to traders who come to the village. Some fishers processed the catch into other products before selling it to traders or in the markets.
MPA management in the three regions usually involves three parties, namely: local government (district and province), communities (customary and general), and non-profit organizations (NGOs). They work together to create better governance of the MPAs. The evaluation of MPA management's effectiveness, based on the Decree of the Director General of Marine, Coastal, and Small Islands KEP.44 / KP3K / 2012 concerning Technical Guidelines for Evaluating the Effectiveness of Management of Marine, Coastal, and Small Islands Conservation Areas (E-KKP3K) shows an average score increase of 243% for 14 MPAs.
Community welfare indicators show that there has been an increase in several indicators, such as electricity and household facilities in West Papua, ownership of private toilets in North Maluku, and access to clean water in Maluku. Iron sheeting is the most common roofing material in every province. Cement is commonly used as wall material in North Maluku and Maluku and wood in West Papua. Cement and ceramics are the primary flooring materials in the three provinces. Also, wood is commonly used for flooring. Most respondents do not have land transportation. Outboard motors and rowboats are typical boats used in the three provinces. Hand fishing is the primary method of catching fish, and poultry is a typical farm animal.
In this report, we summarize some of the recommendations generated from baseline surveys (T0) and post-baseline surveys (

T1) that have been carried out. The analysis results show that the broader community's involvement in establishing and managing MPAs is needed to support sustainable fisheries and marine resource management, and biodiversity conservation. In addition, there is a need for the development and improvement of public and fisheries infrastructures in the village. Several recommended ways to improve the community's economy include: post-harvest processing of fishery products, developing alternative livelihoods, activating institutions such as cooperatives and microfinance in fishing villages to help fishers manage their business, and encouraging women to be involved in marine resource management and sustainable fisheries business. The tourism sector needs to be developed to provide an alternative source of income. A network collaboration among various stakeholders that manage marine resources at WPPNRI 751 is urgently needed to implement these recommendations.

INTRODUCTION Based on the Regulation of the Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries Number 18 / PERMEN-KP / 2014 concerning the State Fisheries Management Area of the Republic of Indonesia (WPPNRI), WPPNRI 715 covers the waters of Tomini Bay, Maluku Sea, Seram Sea, and Berau Bay. Administratively, the provinces with the authority and responsibility for managing fish resources in the WPPNRI 715 consist of 6 (six) provinces covering North Sulawesi, Gorontalo, Central Sulawesi, Maluku, North Maluku, and West Papua provinces. The WPPNRI 715 region has at least nine groups of fish resources: small pelagic, large pelagic, demersal, coral, penaeid shrimp, lobster, crab, small crab, and squid, with a total potential of 631,703 tonnes/year(1). Most of the fish resource utilization rates in WPPNRI 715 are in the over-exploited status, except for demersal fish with fully exploited status and reef fish with moderate status. Such fish utilization status encourages efforts for more sustainable fisheries management.
Figure 1. WPPNRI 715
The number of parties interested in marine resource management in WPPNRI 715 encourages the government to issue KEPMEN Number 82 / KEPMEN-KP / 2016 concerning the Fisheries Management Plan for the State Fisheries Management Area of the Republic of Indonesia 715 (RPP WPPNRI 715). This WPPNRI RPP is a reference for the government, local government, and stakeholders in implementing fisheries management in WPPNRI 715. The vision of fisheries management in WPPNRI 715 is to achieve sovereign and sustainable fisheries management for the Indonesian fishery community's welfare in general and coastal communities in particular.

RPP WPPNRI 715 is prepared by integrating marine conservation areas, which implement fisheries management principles with an ecosystem approach, done primarily through 3 management strategies: strengthening institutions, strengthening regional resource management, and strengthening social, economic, and cultural aspects. The RPP WPPNRI 715 also accommodates all parties' roles in implementing these management principles, including Cooperation Partners and Non-Governmental Organizations.
As one of the Collaborative Partners of the Government of Indonesia, USAID, through the Sustainable Ecosystem Advance (SEA) Project, supports the Government of Indonesia to strengthen governance of fisheries and marine resources and conserve biodiversity. This project uses an ecosystem-based management approach and involves key stakeholders to achieve the following objectives: 1. To promote conservation and sustainable use of marine resources by reforming fisheries management and promoting marine conservation areas to increase fish productivity, food security, and sustainable livelihoods within the target area; and 2. To increase the ministries' leadership role and capacity of maritime affairs and fisheries and local governments to promote sustainable aquatic conservation and fisheries. At the end of this project, USAID assistance is expected to increase efforts to conserve and manage marine diversity in Indonesia by building capacity and implementing marine conservation and sustainable fisheries management.
The SEA Project is implemented through five strategic approaches, four key technical approaches, management support, cross-cutting in 14 MPAs (Annex 1) in the WPPNRI 715 region, including Maluku, North Maluku, and West Papua Provinces. One of the strategic approaches applied is creating incentives for the management of marine and fisheries resources. One of the targets to be achieved by applying this strategy is to increase the number of people getting economic benefits from the sustainable use of natural resources or conservation efforts carried out in their areas. The USAID SEA Project, through its partners, conducted a social survey before and after the USAID SEA Project program implementation to obtain this information. In addition to specific information on the community's economic benefits, the survey collected data on the social conditions of communities living within 14 MPAs. These 14 MPAs included implementation areas for the USAID SEA Project and two additional MPAs (Dampier Strait KKP and Mayalibit Bay KKP), which also received support from the USAID SEA Project.
This report summarizes social survey results in 14 target and two additional MPAs that were conducted during the project implementation period (2016-2021). The social survey reports that each partner in various target MPAs has prepared form the basis of this summary(2-17). In this report, a profile for each MPA is created, which include the following information: demographic conditions of the community, how community members use the waters, how marine resources are being managed, and also a specific explanation of the status of asset ownership, a welfare indicator used in the surveys. A social survey was conducted before and after program implementation. This report consists of 5 parts. The first part is an introduction that explains the USAID SEA Project's background and the purpose of this report. The second part is about the survey method, which describes survey locations, sampling techniques, and the number of replicates in each MPA. The third part is the social profile of the MPAs that contains information on demographic conditions, fisheries management, and management of marine resources in each MPA. The fourth part is about the status and trend of economic welfare that compares community welfare, as measured by ownership of household assets, before and after the SEA Project. Finally, the fifth part presents conclusions and recommendations.

SURVEY METHODS
SURVEY LOCATION
The social survey was conducted in 16 MPAs in the WPPNRI 715 area in two survey periods, during the baseline (T0) and post-baseline (T1) periods. The baseline surveys were generally conducted in 2017-2018, except for the Makian-Moti and Ay-Run KKP, undertaken in 2019. Meanwhile, the post-baseline surveys were completed in 2019-2020 in five target MPAs and two additional ones. The number of villages surveyed in each MPA varied (Table I), according to the number of villages decided to be sampled in each MPA.

DATA COLLECTION METHOD
Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS)
Figure 2. Respondent interview at Makian – Moti
Generally, data collection in all MPAs used the household survey method. In several MPAs, surveyors also collected secondary data to complement existing information. Apart from the household survey, surveyors also conducted Focus Group Discussions (FGD) and Key Informant Interviews (KII) at several places (Table 2).

SAMPLING DESIGN
Sampling sizes are generally determined following the Socio-Economic Monitoring Guidelines for Coastal Managers in Southeast Asia and the Socio-Economic Guidelines for Coral Reef Management protocols, which require sampling at least 5% of the total number of households in each village. Households were selected using a random sampling method. The team then used a simple random table to select respondents.
Several surveys, such as Morotai, Guraici, Mare, and Widi, used non-probability sampling methods. This method does not follow the probability theory of selecting elements from the sample population and provide an equal probability for each element to be selected. Non-probability sampling can be used when the number of elements in the population is unknown or cannot be identified individually(18). Therefore, the social survey in the above MPAs used quota and purposive sampling.
RESPONDENT
The number of respondents interviewed varied according to the method of determining the number of household samples taken at the survey time (Table 3). The number of villages surveyed during T0 was greater than the number of villages during T1, thus significantly reducing the number of respondents.

TYPES OF DATA COLLECTED
Except for household asset data which is an indicator of household welfare, surveys conducted in various MPAs in the three target provinces collected different socio-economic information (Annex 2). This diverse information enriches understanding of the social situation in various MPAs at WPPNRI 715.
LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
This study has several limitations that readers should note:
1. The number of locations in the baseline survey (T0; 2017/2018) is not the same as the post-baseline survey (TI; 2020). During the baseline survey, data were collected in 16 MPAs (6 MPAs in North Maluku, 5 MPAs in Maluku, and 5 MPAs in West Papua) whereas, during the post-baseline survey, data were collected in a total of 7 MPAs (1 MPA in North Maluku, 3 MPAs in Maluku, and 3 MPAs in West Papua)
2. The number of respondents of the baseline and post-baseline surveys also differ significantly. There were 2,963 respondents at the baseline survey and only 985 respondents at the post-baseline survey.
3. The data collected for each KKP is quite variable, except for community welfare indicators collected in all MPAs. These indicators include electricity, household facilities, roofing materials, wall materials, floor materials, number of rooms in the household, vehicles, boats, fishing gear, livestock, water supply, and toilet facilities.
The Covid-19 pandemic caused limitations 1 and 2 during the post-baseline survey. The central government imposed large-scale social restrictions (PSBB), and there were local lockdowns at the village level, which limited mobility among regions in Indonesia.

DEMOGRAPHY
Educational facility
Sula is the only MPA with complete educational facilities, from Elementary School (SD) to Higher Education (PT). The greatest number of educational facilities, from SD to Senior High School (SMA), was recorded in Sula. Rao MPA has the least number of elementary schools. The number of educational facilities available in each MPA varies greatly. Not all villages have educational facilities, especially SD. However, two universities were recorded within all of the MPAs surveyed, one in Sawai and another in Sula.

Access to primary education is good because, on average, every village has an elementary school. Middle and high schools are typically located at the district capital and higher education institutions at the district or provincial capital. In coastal areas, especially in the 3T (Disadvantaged, Frontier, Outermost) areas, teacher attendance is a problem. Research conducted by ACDP(58) showed that the teacher absence rate from class for the Papua and Maluku regions was 10.9 percent. In West Papua Province, a study conducted by UNCEN, UNIPA, SMERU, BPS, UNICEF(59) showed that the teacher's absence rate was 33.5 percent.

Primary occupation
Most coastal households earn their income as fishers. Their catch is not only consumed but also sold to support the family economy (Table 6). The percentage of families that farm is also significant though lesser than fishing. Other occupation types recorded in the coastal villages include hunting and gathering, civil servants, and other income-generating work.

Fishers target on average 12 types of fish, and can identify five types of important biota in North Maluku. Unlike other MPAs, no important biota was found in the Makian-Moti MPA. High fish diversity is found in the Buano and Koon-Neiden MPAs in Maluku. On average, five types of fish can be found in each MPA in West Papua. In the majority of the MPAs, fishers use handline.

GOVERNANCE
The USAID SEA Project supported MPA management in North Maluku, Maluku, and West Papua by encouraging managers to develop and establish a management and zoning plan to improve environmental quality and community well-being. An MPA is managed collaboratively by the local community, local government, and provincial government even though most of the village level rules are customary rules. (Annex 3). The management status of the 16 target MPAs has been assigned, at least at the regency level (Table 15). The year when each MPA was established varies and will continue to change as stipulation at the ministerial level is still being pursued.

Evaluation of the effectiveness of management of MPAs in Indonesia uses the Decree of the Director-General of Marine, Coastal and Small Islands Number KEP.44 / KP3K / 2012 concerning Technical Guidelines for Evaluating the Effectiveness of Management of Marine, Coastal and Small Islands Conservation Areas (E-KKP3K). The SEA project used these guidelines to evaluate supported MPAs. The evaluation results showed that the effectiveness of management score of MPAs supported by the USAID SEA Project has increased by an average of 243 percent (Figure 6 and Table 16). This significant increase needs to be maintained and internalized to the community, local government, and provincial governments so that MPA management can be sustainable.

STATUS AND TREND OF COMMUNITY ECONOMIC WELFARE
OVERVIEW OF THE BASELINE SURVEY
Household assets are one way to measure the level of welfare of a household, in addition to expenses and income. The expenditure approach is usually used to measure people's welfare in developing countries and the income approach for developed countries. The household asset approach is an alternative method to measure Sahn's household's welfare level (2003). The more assets a home owns (quantified in nominal terms or approached by an index), the more prosperous the household is said to be. At the beginning of the project, the SEA project conducted household social surveys in several areas within the Indonesian Fisheries Management Area (WPP) 715, including North Maluku, Maluku, and West Papua. The survey areas in North Maluku include Guraici, Jiew, Mare, Morotai, Sula, and Widi. Survey locations in Maluku includes Buano, Bula, Parigi, Sawai, and Koon. West Papua survey areas include Bintuni, Selat Dampier, Fakfak, Kabui, Teluk Mayalibit, Misool, and Sorong Selatan. In general, the survey results for electricity showed that West Papua is still lagging behind the other two provinces. Most households in West Papua (53%) do not have lighting which comes from electricity, either provided by PLN or independently. While in Maluku and North Maluku, most households (97% and 93%, respectively) have enjoyed electricity. Electrification is one of the policies that can improve community welfare, especially in rural areas(60). Ownership of electronic equipment in the household (mobile phone, computer or smartphone, TV, VHS or DVD, satellite disc, refrigerator or freezer, electric fan, radio, and cable) is closely related to
USAID.GOV SOCIAL CONDITIONS OF 16 MARINE PROTECTED AREAS SUPPORTED BY THE USAID SEA PROJECT | 30
electricity. West Papua survey results indicated lower electrification and low ownership of electronic assets. Only 23% of households in West Papua own TV, compared to 65% in Maluku and 66% in North Maluku. House construction (roofing material, wall material, floor material, and the number of rooms in the household) in the three survey areas are similar. For example, most homes use iron sheeting for roofing, typical for most coastal homes in Indonesia. House construction (roofing material, wall material, floor material, and the number of rooms in the household) in the three survey areas are similar. For example, most homes use iron sheeting for roofing, typical for most coastal homes in Indonesia. A boat is an essential asset for households in coastal areas. The survey results showed that families in the three study areas use boats with an outboard motor for sea transportation. Despite its importance in the lives of coastal communities, many households do not own a boat. In West Papua and North Maluku, 18% of households do not own a boat, and in Maluku, about 8%. Most people living on the coast earn their livelihood as fishers, and fishing tools are a necessity. The survey results indicated that most households in the three study areas use the hand-line as their primary fishing tool. Livestock is an alternative protein source for coastal communities. When fishers cannot go to sea during the high wind and wave season, livestock provides protein for fisher households. In the three survey areas, most families raise poultry. More households in West Papua raise poultry than the other two provinces. Survey results in West Papua showed that 45% of households have limited access to clean water, whereas, in Maluku and North Maluku, fewer households have limited access to clean water. In the past few decades, most coastal households did not have private or communal toilet facilities. Household members use the sea or forest as their main toilet.
OVERVIEW OF THE POST-BASELINE SURVEY
The SEA project repeated the household social survey in their working area at the end of the project. The survey was conducted on some of the same households as the baseline survey and different ones. The asset component in question is the same as the asset component in the baseline survey. The post-baseline survey was conducted in fewer areas than the baseline survey, namely: West Papua (South Sorong); Maluku (Koon, Srutbar, Lease); and North Maluku (Sula). West Papua is an area that is experiencing rapid growth in the supply of electricity compared to the other two areas (Figure 7). The provision of electricity by PLN is a significant factor in this increase. The survey results showed that 75% of households get electricity from PLN. However, not all households can have electricity for 24 hours. Unlike in West Papua, households in Maluku and North Maluku enjoy a more extended period of electricity. On average, 90% of Maluku and North Maluku households use electricity as a primary lighting source.

Figure 7. Household electricity use recorded during baseline (T0) and post-baseline (T1) surveys
Figure 8. Household asset recorded during baseline (T0) and post-baseline (T1) surveys
Households that live in well-electrified areas tend to have many electronic assets compared to those living in non-electrified areas. Survey data indicated that households living in West Papua tend to have fewer electronic holdings than those in Maluku and North Maluku (Figure 8). However, when we compare T0 and T1 for each type of equipment, we found that West Papua exhibited the greatest increase (96%) in ownership of electronic devices than the other regions. This significant increase occurs in ownership of radio.

Figure 9. Roofing materials recorded during baseline (T0) and post-baseline (T1) surveys
Results from the post-baseline survey showed that iron sheeting is still the most dominant material used for roofing (Figure 9). Households started to abandon traditional roofing materials such as bamboo and wood, but a small proportion of the households surveyed still use them.
Figure 10. Wall materials recorded during baseline (T0) and post-baseline (T1) surveys
There are differences among West Papua, Maluku, and North Maluku in materials used for walls. Households living in West Papua tend to use wood as the primary material for walls, whereas those in Maluku and North Maluku tend to use cement (Figure 10). A similar pattern was observed for flooring materials (Figure 11).
33 | SOCIAL CONDITIONS OF 16 MARINE PROTECTED AREAS SUPPORTED BY THE USAID SEA PROJECT USAID.GOV
Figure 11. Flooring materials recorded during baseline (T0) and post-baseline (T1) surveys
The number of rooms in the house indicates the number of household members. More rooms mean more people living under one roof. The post-baseline survey results revealed that the number of rooms in a household in West Papua has increased by 25% on average, but it has decreased by 4% in Maluku (Figure 12).

Figure 13. Ownership of land transportation recorded during baseline (T0) and post-baseline (T1) surveys
The surrounding environment affects the types of transportation owned. Those living in areas with more extensive land and good road access tend to have land rather than sea transportation, and vice versa. Survey data showed that households in the three regions tend not to have land transportation. If they do, they tend to have a motorbike (Figure 13). Households in West Papua and North Maluku generally have a boat with an outboard motor. At baseline survey, most Maluku households have a boat with an outboard motor; however, at post-baseline survey, data showed that on average a household did not own a boat (Figure 14).

Figure 15. Fishing tool ownership recorded during baseline (T0) and post-baseline (T1) surveys
In general, households in the three provinces use handline as the primary fishing tool. Small and large gillnet use, however, is growing more rapidly in West Papua than in the other regions. Families in Maluku showed a decrease in ownership of all types of fishing equipment. In North Maluku, the greatest growth is observed in handline ownership.
Figure 16. Ownership of livestock recorded during baseline (T0) and post-baseline (T1) surveys
Livestock is seen as an asset to increase household income and serves as a buffer for household protein. Households living in West Papua and North Maluku experience a decline in livestock ownership. Meanwhile, those in Maluku experience the opposite. Households in the three areas experienced a greater increase in cow or buffalo ownership than in poultry or pig (Figure 16).

Figure 17. Household access to clean water recorded during baseline (T0) and post-baseline (T1) surveys
Access to clean water and proper sanitation facility is a component in the classification of poor households in Indonesia. These two things are part of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) number 6: to ensure the availability and management of clean water and sustainable sanitation for all. Survey results showed that access to clean water increased in all three areas, as indicated by decreasing number of households having limited access to clean water. More households in West Papua and North Maluku have a private well or are connected to a water pipe network (a 53% increase). In Maluku, households increased their access to clean water by accessing communal facilities. For sanitation, most households in all three regions have a private toilet. The use of communal facilities increased in West Papua and North Maluku but decreased in Maluku.

CLOSING
CONCLUSIONS
1. Demography a. Most of the WPPNRI 715 supported by the USAID SEA Project have limited access to
educational facilities, particularly middle and high schools, most of which are located in the district or regency capitals. This limited access will impact the school dropout rate.
b. The primary source of livelihood for coastal households is fishing, followed by farming. c. There is cultural assimilation in most WPPNRI 715 as indicated by the number of other
ethnic groups besides the original ethnic group in an MPA.
2. Governance a. MPAs in WPPNRI 751 are jointly managed by the community, district government, and
provincial government. b. Regulations for MPA management are dominated by customary (traditional) rules and
supported by the district or provincial governments in their formal legal form. c. Evaluation of MPA management's effectiveness at WPPNRI 751 showed that all MPAs had
passed the initiation stage, and only two MPAs (Teluk Berau and Nusalasi) have been at Level 4.
d. MPA management's effectiveness supported by the USAID SEA Project has increased by an average of 243 percent.
3. Status and Trends of Community Economic Welfare a. More than 90% of North Maluku and Maluku households and 87% of West Papua
households have enjoyed electricity (from PLN and Non-PLN). b. Households that live in well-electrified areas tend to have many electronic assets
compared to non-electrified areas. c. Houses with iron sheeting roofs are still dominant compared to other types. d. Households in West Papua use wood for their houses' walls, whereas those in North
Maluku and Maluku use cement. e. The average amount of space in a household in West Papua has increased by 25%.
Meanwhile, it has declined by 4% in the Maluku region. f. Households in the three regions tend not to have land transportation, and if they do, they
tend to use two-wheeled motorbikes. g. Households in West Papua and North Maluku typically have a boat with an outboard
motor. Households in Maluku also commonly have outboard motorboats but only so at the baseline survey.
h. In general, handline is the primary fishing tool for households in the three regions. i. Households living in West Papua and North Maluku tended to experience a decline in
livestock ownership, whereas those living in Maluku experienced the opposite. j. There was an increase in access to clean water in the three survey areas. k. In ownership of sanitation facilities, households in the three provinces tend to have private
toilets.
4. Information presented in this report can be viewed as basic information essential for managing the 16 MPAs. Due to limited data obtained during baseline and post-baseline surveys, however, the information presented should not be understood as the impact of program interventions supported by the USAID SEA project.

RECOMMENDATIONS
This section consists of two parts: recommendations from social surveys that have been conducted and recommendations for future social surveys. Recommendations from social surveys that have been conducted are compiled by summarizing recommendations in the social survey reports of the 16 MPAs in the USAID SEA-Project working area. Meanwhile, recommendations for future social surveys section include suggestions on what should be considered when conducting social surveys in an MPA in the future.
Recommendations from Social Surveys that Have Been Conducted
This section is prepared by summarizing recommendations from social survey reports for 16 MPAs within the USAID SEA-Project working area. Recommendations for each MPA are summarized from the social survey reports conducted during survey periods T0 and T1. Recommendations to several KKP, such as KKP Guraici, Mare, and Widi; Berau Bay and Nusalasi MPAs; and KKP Dampier and Teluk Mayalibit, are joint recommendations based on available reports. Meanwhile, the social survey recommendations at the Ay-Rhun KKP are given jointly in the KKP-Banda survey. Similarly, KKP Sawai's recommendations were issued together in the social survey conducted in the Srutbar District. Although recommendations from the social surveys for each MPA are specific to the local conditions and communities (Table 17), we note 14 points that generally describe the recommendations given to all regions:
1. Involve local community in establishing and managing MPAs 2. Develop and improve public and fisheries infrastructures in the village 3.

Recommendations for Future Social Survey
One of the lessons the author learned when compiling this report was the need for a better social survey design from the beginning of program implementation. A social survey design starts with specifying the objectives of the study and research questions that will be answered by analyzing the data collected. The research questions then determine the data collection method. For example, if the survey question you want to answer is "what is the social impact of a conservation area?" then the survey methodology will be designed to be able to analyze the impact of an intervention using, for example, Quasi-Experimental methods(61). Quasi-experiments enable researchers to turn the implementation of conservation interventions into 'policy experiments,' allowing causal inferences to be made between an intervention and its impact in real-world conditions and in situations where randomization of interventions is impractical or unethical(62). The Quasi-Experimental method mimics a randomized controlled trial by (a) identifying the observable bias that leads to the establishment of a conservation intervention at a particular site or influencing its results, and (b) adopting this same bias as the criterion for identifying appropriate controls(63). When the research question is "what are the synergies and trade-offs between ecological and social impacts of MPAs?" then the survey must be designed to select locations that allow for simultaneous ecological and social impact analyses. For example, an ecological monitoring location should represent an area where sampled communities exploit marine resources. The same method is applied when selecting a control site for the survey. Another thing to consider is selecting household survey instruments with robust indicators. There are numerous indicators of human well-being. Instruments and indicators chosen must yield strong quantitative and qualitative data to answer research questions determined at the beginning of the study. If the survey is conducted in several MPAs, the instruments have to be the same for each MPA. It is necessary to train enumerators to avoid bias in data collection and compile a field reference for the team. One of the lessons learned from a decade of conducting social surveys in the Bird's Head Seascape of Papua is that the institution implementing the study should have the capacity to focus on conducting research, such as a local research institute or university. Having a research institution conduct social surveys in MPAs confer some advantages. A research institute tends to be more neutral than other stakeholders. Also, a research institute's focus is to produce information. Thus information generated from the data collected will be obtained relatively quickly than if the survey was conducted by an organization that also implements various programs in the field. Apart from these advantages, involving local research institute provides added value for the sustainability of the program's benefits in the long term. Another challenge is how to store data and information generated from the surveys. Once again, drawing from a decade of conducting social and ecological surveys in the Bird's Head Seascape of Papua is the importance of having a central place to store updated and easy-to-access social and ecological data of MPAs in eastern Indonesia. An idea that can be realized is to form a "Science for Conservation" consortium consisting of policymakers (central, provincial, and local government), research institutions, NGOs, and donors. In addition to managing the data repository, the consortium will also determine how to analyze the data to produce information needed by the government and managers to make science-based policies for sustainable management of the MPAs. In addition to being partners in implementing policies in their working areas, NGOs' ability to network with various global institutions is a significant strength for the consortium. Of course, donors play a critical role in supporting the consortium and ensuring the consortium produces science-based recommendations for MPA management.
