During the months of May and June, 2014, the national fishermen fora in each of the three countries of the Gulf of Honduras were held.
Under the coordination of the Tri national Alliance for the development of the Gulf of Honduras -TRIGOH-, fishermen associations and authorities spent a day discussing fisheries issues. The main topic of each of the meetings was the establishment of fish refuges in order to consolidate the Fishe Refuges Network.
The organized fishermen have given huge steps towards co-management in only one year. Most of them learned about the process of establishing fish refuges during the last tri national fishermen forum when Mexican fishermen shared their experiences.
The results of each of the fora will be discussed during the Tri National Fishermen Forum that willl be held in Punta Gorda, Belize on July 31.
We will keep you posted of the interesting outcomes and results from the tri national forum, as these will again be thanks to your collaboration and support.
