| Summary: | This research focused on how handicrafts could contribute to sustainable community
development with natural resource management. This research aims to characterize
Lepironia articulata as a resource by taxonomy and distribution patterns, examine its
utilization through group and semi-structured interviews with ten local residents who got
involved in handicraft productions at two selected villages in Setiu Wetlands of
Terengganu state and identify their capacity development opportunities by following a
guideline provided by United Nations Development Programme. This research clarified
that the height of Lepironia articulata in Setiu Wetlands was shorter than the records of
the other description and the other site in Singapore while the width of stem and the
bladeless sheaths were similar to former records. Lepironia articulata was utilized
sustainably except for the coloring method during the material preparation process.
Capacity of producers on information technology and weaving and making handicrafts
skills could be further developed with collaboration of multi stakeholders and leadership
of the state government.
