Abstract
Indonesia is a maritime country where most of the population depends on marine resources, including settlements in Lero. However, geographical conditions are often unsafe. Coastal communities must adapt to the climate, geographical conditions, and prosper with marine resources. So far, the reality is that fishermen's settlements are always identified as slums, undeveloped residents, and difficult to get out of poverty. This research aims to determine the coastal settlements characteristics in Lero, participation level in mitigation, mitigation-based infrastructure development strategies, and fisheries economic resilience. The method used is descriptive qualitative and quantitative. The analysis used includes: spatial, scoring, and IPA analyses. The research results show that the residents of Lero Village must be adaptive to disasters because of their geographical location. Community participation in disaster mitigation is strongly influenced by external factors. Meanwhile, internal factors have no effect. Regarding infrastructure development, there are four priority scale aspects that require handling, namely improving pier facilities, ship repairing facilities for fishermen, management of residential waste systems and waste management of Lero settlements. The development of Lero as a coastal tourism village must be supported by the development of local potential-based community skills to improve the socio-economic sustainability of the surrounding population.
Highlights
IntroductionIndonesia as an archipelago with 17,504 islands is the most islands in the world and has the second-longest coastline in the world after Canada [1]
2) The level of participation of the Lero Village community in mitigation efforts is not influenced by internal factors but is strongly influenced by external factors
The condition of socio-economic resilience is still at 49.1% and settlement infrastructure is at 46%
Summary
Indonesia as an archipelago with 17,504 islands is the most islands in the world and has the second-longest coastline in the world after Canada [1]. This makes Indonesian seas rich in marine and coastal resources as well as biological diversity, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) [2]. Indonesia has the second-highest capture fisheries in the world in marine waters. The abundance of fish resources should be able to support fishermen's income for their daily needs. Most of the Indonesian fishermen live in poverty and find it hard to escape the poverty chain. Covid-19 has forced organizations in both the corporate and public sectors to suspend operations, and those that did not prepare for it are suffering as a result [3]
