In 2022, CABFishMan released a series of short films highlighting the work underway to facilitate a holistic, collaborative approach to ecosystem sensitive management of small-scale fisheries. In the series, we hear directly from the partners working on the ground in small-scale fisheries across Spain, Ireland, France, Portugal, and the UK, to understand how their work will support the development of tools for future co-management in the region.
Claudia Suarez from the University of Oviedo, Spain, explores the importance of communicating the value of small-scale fisheries, supporting members of the public to understand not only the ecosystem services that SSFs provide, but also the value that their rich culture and heritage provide.
