The Martín Pescador Centre, devoted to the marketing of products and the revaluation of the culture of the ancestral peoples of the mangrove ecosystem, is an initiative of the National Coordinating Committee for the Defence of the Mangrove Ecosystems (C CONDEM), comprising the people’s organizations that make up C CONDEM: grassroots organizations, fronts, federations and unions of communities devoted to artisanal fishing and gathering of products from the mangroves.
Mangroves, food sovereignty for coastal communities was the theme chosen this year for the International Day for the Defence of Mangrove Ecosystems (July 26) by Redmanglar International, which organized a variety of activities in Latin America between July 16 and July 26 to mark the occasion. During these days, representatives of various organizations joined with local communities to carry out mangrove reforestation work and to gather mangrove tree seeds .
The People’s Coalition for Fisheries Justice Indonesia (KIARA) celebrated the World Mangrove Day issuing a press release where it “urged the government to immediately conduct a revocation of the business license and or development projects (oil palm plantations, shrimp farms, coastal reclamation, and so on) that causes the loss of mangrove forests.
