Abstract: The mobilisation of women in conflict resolution is often constrained by a cultural context that limits them to gender-specific spaces and roles. Women can be both triggers of conflict and reducers of conflict in coastal communities. Therefore, involving women in conflict resolution in coastal communities is especially important. The research objective is to determine fishermen’s conflicts in the use of capture fisheries resources, conflict resolution strategies in the use of capture fisheries resources, and the role of women in conflict resolution in the use of capture fisheries resources in the coastal area of Maros Regency, South Sulawesi. The data collection method is by conducting in-depth interviews to explore the role of women using the snowball method. The results obtained were assessed by Pentahelix through Focus Group Discussion (FGD), which focused on justifying women’s roles and using AHP analysis. The results of Pentahelix assessment indicated that the most influential role of women in conflict resolution is the role of mediation. This research can contribute to conflict resolution in coastal areas by involving women as mediators, negotiators, and decision-makers.
