3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the months of June, July and August 2015, four research fellows conducted primary and secondary research on livelihood mapping on three islands in East Nusa Tenggara province: East Flores, Adonara and Lembata. Research Topics INCOME SOURCES AND CYCLES Key Findings Population heavily relies on farming and agriculture as main income sources. Incomes is typically variable, not-fixed and comes from multiple sources. Inflows are linked to harvest season; outflows are linked to traditional obligations. Cultural and traditional obligations place a significant financial burden on households. EXISTING TECH MARKET Over 30% own technologies with value above $100 such as TV, fridge or washing machine. Brand and price are key consideration factors in purchasing household technologies. PURCHASE FINANCING Majority of respondents preferred paying in cash, which could reflect variable/unstable economic situation. Vendors are reluctant to use installments due to difficulty in recovering debt. Cash up front and lay-by is preferred. NEW TECH OPPORTUNITIES (New technology opportunities are not included in the abridged version of the report. There will be a separate report with technology recommendations for unmet needs. Stay tuned!) 3
