Last week Blue World Foundation, with the support of the Rufford Foundation, initiated the project “Participatory management of shark fishermen in the Caribbean of Guatemala”. During these days the objectives of the project were presented to CONAP and the fishing community of El Quetzalito. The support obtained for this project will allow, during the coming months, to carry out several workshops with the fishermen and local volunteers. In these workshops the participants will receive different trainings in elasmobranch monitoring, as well as manuals and materials necessary to carry out the monitoring of elasmobranch.
