Descripción
The Project for Development of Fisheries in Areas of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden believes that the cooperative system is the most suitable course to be followed to develop rural areas in general, and fishermen's communities in particular. Fishing operations are not considered any more a game of chance nor is subsistence fishing for the fisherman's family and/or selling to neighbours/tribes acceptable. Fishing has, by and large, evolved from subsistence level to playing an important role in food security for the masses. It also provides a suitable means of living for the fishermen. The Project organized this seminar to discuss the cooperative movement in member countries and to arrive at practical recommendations for the development of the artisanal fisheries sector.
