Penciptaan Mata Pencaharian Alternatif: Strategi Pengurangan Kemiskinan Dan Perlindungan Sumber Daya Laut (Studi Kasus Kota Batam Dan Kabupaten Pangkajene Dan Kepulauan)

Abstract

One attempt to alleviate poverty of fishermen is, among others, by creating alternative income generating activities to facilitate additional income. The activities are implemented through diversification of household income's sources. This enables fishermen to carry out jobs other than fisheries, which is also an effective effort to conserve marine resources. The reason is because alternative income generating activities could reduce the high dependency of fishery households on marine resources. This paper aims to assess alternative income-generating activities implemented through the Coral Reef Rehabilitation and Management Program (Coremap). It is based on two Coremap study sites, ie. the City of Batam in the Province of Riau Islands and the district of Pangkajene Islands (Pangkep) in the Province of South Sulawesi. This paper based on qualitative data, particularly on the supporting and challenging factors in implementing income-generating activities. The result of data analysis shows that the alternative income generated activities offered by the program tend to neglect the work habits of the targeted groups. For example, the activities requested target population to work collectively in a group. However, in reality, they are not accustomed to such manner. Moreover, the initiated income generated activities took quite long time to harvest, while the target population normally carried out quick yielding jobs.

Namun, melihat umur dari kelompok pengolah dan pemasar ikan tersebut yang masih sangat muda, maka perlu adanya pendampingan dalam melakukan kegiatan pengolahan ikan dan pemasaran hasil olahan ikan.…”
