This study discussed the sense of belonging, position, livelihood sustainability, and vulnerabilities of the fishery-dependent nomadic community in Bangladesh. Due to technological advancements, infrastructural developments, and progress in medical science, the ancient traditions and culture of this nomadic community are on the verge of extinction. Fishing is identified as the most sustainable livelihood approach for the nomadic community compared to other professions, with an average daily income of up to BDT 700 ± 100 during the fishing season. However, this community faces numerous natural and anthropogenic threats that affect their traditional occupations and livelihoods, making their lives more vulnerable. Natural drivers include climatic catastrophes, storms, winds, cyclones, and tides. Anthropogenic drivers include fishing bans, dependency on a single profession (fishing), lack of effective alternative income-generating options, and social, economic, and cultural exclusion. The government and responsible NGOs should take a holistic approach to design livelihood interventions for nomadic fishers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
