• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The main component of social participation on the southern coast of Guatemala are the social actors, men and women of the sea, who participate in the activities of extraction, processing and commercialization of fishery products and constitute small economic units called household units. This research determined the impact of women's work in artisanal fishing activities as a driver of development processes and community growth. To this end, a qualitative description was made of the household units of artisanal fishing in relation to the productive roles of extraction, processing and commercialization of fish, the determination of environmental perceptions, community development and the determination of the value of use between men and women of environmental services. This research was developed using participatory methodologies to work from the local level.
