Visitors from Brasil

During the last week of february we’ll be hosting here in A Coruña a scientific meeting with relevant researchers from Brazil with whom we’re already colaborating ( PULPO Project).

The Brazilian visiting delagation will be formed by Reynaldo Amorim Marinho, Fisheries Engineer and Director of the Divisão de Pesca, and Raúl Mario Malvino Madrid, both form the Instituto de Ciências do Mar – LABOMAR–Universidade Federal do Ceará, and Sérgio Macedo Gomes de Mattos, Presidência da República, Secretaria Especial de Aqüicultura e Pesca – SEAP/PR, Chefe do Escritório no Estado de Pernambuco.

The goal of the visit will be to develop a collaborative project between the Northeast of Brazil and Galicia with the objective of implementing participative management-system models also known as co-management. It will be based in the development of coastal fishing, particularly of artisanal small-scale fisheries in the northeast of Brazil, taking Galicia’s experience as a traditional fishing community as example. To achieve this goal, during the visit we will try to put the fishing sector into its context and within the history of its development and management policies for coastal fishing to critically discern where there was really development and management originating the gubernamental intervention. The exchange between the experiences of scientists and technitians of Spain and Brazil suggests the need of deepening and putting into a social perspective the knowledge about management objectives, the management systems developed and their applicability. As well as, the existing relations between management systems and organization of fishing activity, and the conflicts between sustainability and overexploitation that are part of any fishery and very important in coastal fisheries due to their inmediate social and economic consecuences. During this meeting there will be visits to different comunities of the fishing sector to help the understanding of the actual situation of fisheries in Galicia.
