Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article, based on a qualitative study, analyzes the relationship that has developed in recent years and will continue to be presented in the future between the implementation of wind farms and artisanal fishing activity in southern Peru, specifically in the districts of Marcona and Ocucaje. It uses as secondary sources of information studies and implementation reports on corporate social responsibility from wind energy companies in Marcona and other parts of the world. It also uses as a primary source an interview with a representative of a wind energy company already in the operating phase of a wind farm in the district of Ocucaje. The aim is to investigate the progress that wind energy companies are making in their Corporate Social Responsibility in supporting local development, specifically their support for sustainable artisanal fishing in the districts of Marcona and Ocucaje. It then prospectively proposes some alternatives and strategies that will help increasingly promote sustainable artisanal fishing in southern Peru.
