Comunidades Pesqueras Artesanales en la conformación de áreas naturales protegidas en el Golfo de California

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Communities' participation in the declaration and management of protected natural areas (ANP) is studied to determine whether their operation meets their inhabitants' requirements and economic needs. The research uses a quantitative approach based on applying a Likert-type survey, which was conducted on 323 fishermen and inhabitants of two fishing communities located in the Gulf of Baja, California, Mexico. The results show that interaction with government authorities is not constant, and the fishermen's opinion was not considered in decision-making, which limits the search for solutions for fishing communities. It is concluded that without the active participation and support of fishermen in the planning and operation of the ANPs, government initiatives for their conservation and good management will have little chance of being effective.
