英文摘要 | The fishing industry is considered vital for livelihood resources in the Philippines, especially in Surigao del Sur. By investigating how fishers' well-being can be affected by various anthropogenic stressors, adaptation strategies can be crafted to address related problems. Focus groups were used to assess fishers' well-being through the five dimensions such as social, economic, ecological, spiritual values, and cultural. A total of N = 174 participants attended the six FGDs conducted in Cortes, Lanuza, and Lianga. Separate focus groups were used to validate the results of the study. Results showed variation in social connectivity, Lanuza and Lianga scored moderately (3), but in terms of cooperatives, Cortes and Lanuza scored highly (4). In the cultural dimension (governance and advocacy for marine conservation), Cortes scored high (4), and all sites scored very high (5) for spiritual values. For the economic dimension, e.g. catch and cost of fishing trips, Cortes and Lanuza also scored high (4). Finally, for the ecological dimension (protection of fish stocks), Cortes and Lanuza scored very high (5). Four major anthropogenic stressors were mentioned: coral reef siltation (85%), climate change impacts (82%), improper garbage disposal (69%), and impacts of mining activities (67%). The respondents agreed that establishing more marine protected areas (MPAs) is essential for their marine ecosystem to provide services that include nutrition, livelihood, and tourism. In addition, most of the fishers have agreed about the necessity for the municipal and provincial governments to focus their attention on assisting fishers to address anthropogenic disturbances. |
