KEMITRAAN DI SEKTOR PERIKANAN TANGKAP: STRATEGI UNTUK KELANGSUNGAN USAHA DAN PEKERJAAN
ABSTRACT: Partnership and
empowerment development of fishermen community is one way that can be taken to
ensure the continuity of business and employment in the fisheries sector. This
attempt also promotes the improvement of social and economic condition of
fishermen community through income enhancement and property alleviation, reduce
fisherman’s dependency on traditional capital institution, and achieve more
equitable and sustainable development. This paper aims to review the concept of
partnership and empowerment of workers in the fisheries sector and to analyze
alternative policy strategies of fishermen’s partnership and employment through
strengthening the internal aspect (institutional approach) and the external
aspects (infrastructure and capacity support). The analyzed data derived from
field research in Tegal and Cilacap, Central Java in 2013 and 2014. This paper
confirms that the synergy between the government, the fishermen, and the business
has a very important role in supporting the successful implementation of the
partnership program and the empowerment of fishermen. Further, it is important
to establish and improve capabilities of fishermen group in local level, to
supervise and monitor the implementation of activities involving all fisheries’
stakeholders, and to establish strategic polices that support fishermen’s
autonomy in fisheries equipment ownership, the business capital, marketing
network, and production process.
