| Abstract | This participatory action research (PAR) aimed to examine the conflict situations over coastal resource utilization and propose participatory strategies for managing the coastal resources to solve the conflicts in Songkhla Lake. Data were collected through questionnaires, group discussions, and public hearings from fishermen, community organizations, The Thai Sea Watch Association, and related agencies. The research findings indicated that the fishery resource conflicts in Songkhla Lake mainly resulted from illegal fishing incursion into conservation areas by employing illegal and destructive fishing tools. They could be resolved at two levels: conflicts among the locals need mediation as a resolution, while conflicts between the locals and the state can be addressed by strictly adhering to the law, resolving disputes through mediation before litigation, and making joint agreements that define the areas for fisheries co-management, such as conservation zones, voluntary fishermen, and resource restoration activities. Knowledge and information support on management should be provided, and the community should be involved in consulting, planning, and creating agreements or regulations |
