The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the livelihoods of fishing communities socially and economically. This study examines the sustainability of small-scale fishing households in Prigi Bay during the COVID-19 pandemic based on the sustainable livelihoods approach (SLA). The objectives of this research are: (1) To identify small-scale fishing households’ access to human resource capital, natural resources, financial capital, physical capital and institutional social capital during the pandemic, (2) To examine the sustainability of small-scale fishing households’ livelihoods during the pandemic based on the five dimensions and (3) To determine the priority scale of the five capitals. This study is a quantitative research utilising the multidimensional scaling household economic analysis to determine the sustainability status of the five constituent capitals and strengthen the sustainability of small-scale fishing households. It was found that fishing households before and during the COVID-19 pandemic show insufficient sustainability (47.62%). Social capital is the SLA capital that changed the most among the five during the COVID-19 pandemic and has become entirely sustainable.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the livelihoods of fishing communities socially and economically. This study examines the sustainability of small-scale fishing households in Prigi Bay during the COVID-19 pandemic based on the sustainable livelihoods approach (SLA). The objectives of this research are: (1) To identify small-scale fishing households’ access to human resource capital, natural resources, financial capital, physical capital and institutional social capital during the pandemic, (2) To examine the sustainability of small-scale fishing households’ livelihoods during the pandemic based on the five dimensions and (3) To determine the priority scale of the five capitals. This study is a quantitative research utilising the multidimensional scaling household economic analysis to determine the sustainability status of the five constituent capitals and strengthen the sustainability of small-scale fishing households. It was found that fishing households before and during the COVID-19 pandemic show insufficient sustainability (47.62%). Social capital is the SLA capital that changed the most among the five during the COVID-19 pandemic and has become entirely sustainable.
