Abstract:
"The following report is based on data - gathered through interviews, focus groups, community meetings, and field notes - that describes the most pressing conditions and dynamics ruling over the management of the reserves that are within the territory of the North East Corridors maritime zone: Arrecife de la Cordillera and Canal de Luis Pea reserves. The participants belong to the following interest groups: Artisanal, small-scale commercial fishers, government agencies (DNER), local schools (teachers from Culebra and Fajardo), environmental NGOs, Divers Association, and a journalist specialized in the region. Following the research objectives, findings will be summarized in bullet-point form and divided into the following categories: Resource-use conflicts; Management perspectives; Participatory issues; Governance; and Suggestions for the future management of the zone."
