Abstract

The proposed research work was carried out by means of structured survey using a self-report questionnaire and interview schedule containing the main purposes of the present study will be to understand the impacts of climatic variability on livelihood including any slow on-set disaster that experienced by the people of coastal communities in the province of Balochistan. A total of 6 villages were selected as study locations based on the effect of climate variability in the affected areas, 10 respondents from each village was selected making total number of respondents sixty. All the 60 respondents were randomly selected for the research study purpose. Out of the total 70 percent are males and 30 per cent are females.
