Community fishingFor the record, I am not a fish lover; however, I consider myself a lover of sea and sand. Of course, I was rather surprised by this, considering that the community they serve mostly belong to the blue economy, since fishing was the main source of income. Hence this is why eventually, we thought of how to establish some kind of community fishing and environmental initiative in order to help people out. It is also worth mentioning that while community fishing matters in sustaining communities, commercial fishing is also an integral component to the overall ecosystem. Community fishing is so important because it serves as the foundation of food security and at the same time, fisherfolk are able to participate in management measures that will allow their communities to thrive.
