Popis: Indonesia is one of the largest tuna producers in the world, which contributes 16% to world tuna production. The dominant tuna species catched in Indonesia are Albacore Tuna (Thunnus alalunga), Madidihang/Yellowfin Tuna (T. albacares), Big Eye Tuna (T. obesus) dan Southern Bluefin Tuna (T. maccoyii). The tuna fisheries have contributed significant jobs or livelihood to the coastal communities. Profit and revenue sharing is a common remuneration system found on tuna fisheries though out Indonesia. However, these fishers are vulnerable given their economic and welfare conditions and of usually limited options of others livelihood. Small fishers have limited access to livelihoods, access to finance and access to skills or fishing technology. Therefore, the inclusion of socio-economic performance or indicators into the tuna fisheries management is crucial in Indonesia.
