A video introduction to Future Fishers – an NGO in Trinidad and Tobago that seeks to empower local stakeholders to understand the value and benefits of managing coastal and marine resources sustainably
Future Fishers is a non-governmental organisation; founded in 2017 and based on the northeast coast of Trinidad, that seeks to empower local stakeholders to understand the value and benefits of managing coastal and marine resources sustainably. In 2019, Future Fishers undertook an assessment of market and environmental vulnerabilities and recommendations for small-scale production of smoked and salted fish on Trinidad’s East coast, including the communities of Guayaguayare, Mayaro and Toco. Despite COVID-19 restrictions, Future Fishers was able to do great work on this project and completed it in July 2020. Their work was made possible with a small grant from the Caribbean Sea Innovation Fund (CarSIF) facility, which was established by the Caribbean natural Resources Institute (CANARI) to address priority needs and actions in the Caribbean on marine and coastal resources governance and management. The small grants are a key component of the regional three-year project, Powering Innovations in Civil Society and Enterprises for Sustainability (PISCES) in the Caribbean which is being funded by the European Union. Check out this video to learn more about Future Fishers and why their work is so important for supporting sustainable fisheries and managing the Caribbean's coastal and marine resources: https://youtu.be/fSVr_y6sp48

Aguas Residuales El recurso Desaprovechado – Informe Mundial de las Naciones Unidas sobre el Desarrollo de los Recursos Hídricos 2017
En la edición 2017 del Informe Mundial de las Naciones Unidas sobre el Desarrollo de los Recursos Hídricos (WWDR) se analiza la temática de aguas residuales y su potencial como recurso sostenible. En el Informe Mundial sobre Desarrollo de los Recursos Hídricos 2017 se demuestra que una mejor gestión de las aguas residuales implica no solo la reducción de la contaminación en las fuentes, sino también la eliminación de contaminantes de los flujos de aguas residuales, la reutilización de las aguas regeneradas y la recuperación de los subproductos útiles.





Aguas Residuales: De Residuo a Recurso

Análisis de la gobernanza de la actividad pesquera en la provincia de Montecristi
La gobernanza se refiere a los procesos de toma de decisiones y sus implementaciones. Su análisis se concentra en los actores formales e informales que están involucrados en dichos procesos. Algunos sostienen que la gobernanza está ligada a los procesos de interacción entre los actores involucrados en un asunto público, que llevan a la toma de decisiones o a la formulación de normas. El presente documento parte de estos conceptos y realiza un análisis de la gobernanza de la actividad pesquera en la provincia de Montecristi, tendiendo en consideración que la existencia de los debidos consensos en cuanto a las metas, roles, responsabilidades y la transparencia de las acciones, facilitan la unión de esfuerzos y voluntades de todos los potenciales actores en cada área de actividad de la pesca arrecifal que es fuente de beneficio colectivo a la población, proporcionando alimento de forma sostenible que a la vez puede contribuir a la preservación del ambiente si se hace de forma responsable. Consenso, objetivos y normas claras, participación y transparencia son claves para una buena gobernanza!
