The Dynamics of Artisanal Fisheries in the Bacia de Campos: Social Organization and Practices in Solidarity Economy among Artisanal Fishermen.

This article presents the challenges to the implementation of a solidarity economy project with artisanal fishermen in the Bacia de Campos, Brazil. The study is the result of research conducted by PEA Pescarte Project, a partnership between UENF/Petrobras/IBAMA. The information in this study was collected in meetings in fishing communities, focus groups and from questionnaires made for census purposes. The findings highlight the artisanal fishermen's lack of confidence in state and representative institutions. On the other hand, they point to the solidarity and the view that the work carried out with cooperation and social organization are essential for changing the socio-economic reality of these individuals.

Keywords : artisanal fishing; environmental education; social organization; solidarity economy.
