Supporting fishing communities in their self-organization and the preservation of traditional economic and lifestyle practices

About this project

The traditional way of life of small-scale fishermen in Brazil is recognized and enjoys special protection. However, this protection is often not guaranteed by state authorities. The existence of the communities is threatened by land speculation, mining, energy and tourism projects. The partner organization supports fishing communities to stay on the land, to organize themselves and to preserve traditional ways of life and economy
