Within the celebration of the 2012 Coast Day, on Friday, 12 October 2012, a Moroccan NGO “Forum for Town Planning, Environment and Development” (FUED) organised a workshop to present and discuss the results of a field study performed by the FUED on the socio-economic situation of the artisanal fishermen in the Marchica lagoon, as well as their point of view on the biodiversity of the fishery resources, the existing conflicts and the on-going and future projects concerning the lagoon. The study was undertaken with the “Project of integrated management of artisanal fishing in the Marchica lagoon” implemented by FUED in partnership with WWF.
