Abstract: This study aims to explore the extent to which the value of social learning is implemented in people's lives especially the community managing protected forests in the village of Dunu.The reason for choosing the Dunu village community is due to the characteristics of the people who live around protected forests and have a livelihood as gardeners and fishermen. Social learning really needs to be implemented in the Dunu village community in order to preserve the forest which until now the Raja Island forest is a forest that still has 100% sustainability in the province of Gorontalo. The data analysis technique uses the Miles and Huberman interactive model which is carried out in the form of three components namely data reduction data presentation and verification/drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the application of Social Learning can increase community participation in managing and conserving forests. If the concepts and values of Social Learning can be implemented properly community participation can be increased. Increased community participation can have an impact on the realization of forest management and conservation which is a component of life. Empirical evidence in this study shows that social learning has a very good role in community participation especially in the preservation and management of the Raja forest which is located in the village of Dunu Monano District North Gorontalo Regency. The cause is social learning which is reflected in terms of building communication between forest institutions village government and fellow community groups showing a good role in increasing welfare and the level of community participation.
