Vulnerability Analysis and Adaptive Capacity of Small-Scale Fishermen in Tambakrejo Fishing Village, Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia
Keywords:
adaptive capacity, vulnerability, Tambakrejo, IndonesiaAbstract
This study identifies the perceptions and resources of small-scale fishermen about the adaptive capacity of small-scale fishermen in Tambakrejo Fishing Village using primary and secondary data. Fishermen respondents were selected using the accidental sampling method and the analysis used a mixed method approach. The number of respondents used in this study was 60 respondents. The purpose of this study is to explore the vulnerability of small-scale fishers and identify the adaptive capacity of small-scale fishing households. The criteria are grouped into 5 aspects: natural, social, economic, institutional and technological. Their adaptive capacity has the potential to help them grow resilience.
