Vulnerability of Small-Scale Fishermen's Livelihoods to Climate Change in the Coastal Area of Lampung Bay, Indonesia
Climate change in recent years has affected fishing activities in Lampung Bay. This study aimed to analyze the vulnerability of small-scale fishermen's livelihoods to climate change. The vulnerability assessment in this study assesses the livelihoods of Bagan fishermen based on geographic and socio-demographic indicators that impact Bagan fishermen's households consisting of 9 main components and 33 supporting components. This study was conducted during January-June 2024 in Kotakarang District, Lampung Province. Data were collected based on interviews with 57 Bagan fishermen informants consisting of patron and client fishermen. The results of the study showed that client fishermen were more vulnerable than patron fishermen, as calculated based on the LVI-IPCC. Client fishermen were found to be more vulnerable in key components such as human resource capital where fishing experience is less than 10 years, food sensitivity which shows that part of the income is used to meet food needs, health sensitivity related to difficulty in accessing health insurance, and ownership of fishing gear where client fishermen do not have fishing gear assets. Meanwhile, patron fishermen were found to be vulnerable in food sensitivity components such as income which is mostly used to meet household food needs. Based on the findings in this study, the vulnerability of the livelihoods of bagan fishermen can be evaluated. In addition, this study should be the basis for formulating policies to evaluate assistance programs, especially for areas with minimal data so that the LVI scenario is used as a basis for decision making.
