The Cooperation and Participatory Structuring of Local Arrangements for the Production of Artisanal Fish in Traditional Communities aims to promote the sustainable productive development of traditional fishing communities through the establishment of institutional and community partnerships. This approach involves the creation of cooperation networks that include government agencies, non-governmental organizations, research institutions and the fishing communities themselves. The objective is to strengthen the productive and organizational capacity of these communities, ensuring the environmental, economic and social sustainability of artisanal fishing activities.

Artisanal fishing method using floating netting gear, consisting of a fish capture technology that confines fish that live in schools and have migratory habits, so that they remain alive inside the nets, allowing the selection of individuals to be collected. The action by Fiocruz and FCT aims to guarantee legal security to artisanal fishermen who use this technology through the exchange of experiences and support for the participatory construction of a legal system that recognizes the practice traditionally carried out.

Social cartography of fishing is a mapping process carried out by residents of the fishing community, with technical support from OTSS researchers. This process allows the identification of traditional artisanal fishing practices that constitute the collective identity of the community, as well as conflicts that threaten the territory. The construction of social cartography provides an opportunity for the community to reflect on the historical use and occupation of its territory and habitat, in addition to planning sociopolitical strategies for the sustainable use of its natural resources.

The participatory governance process in the management of water bodies in a river basin involves several stages, including diagnosis, social mapping, agreement and planning. This process involves associations of residents and producers, the government in its various instances, the water and sewage concessionaire, and OTSS researchers. Together, they analyze the situation of the water bodies, identifying solutions for the rational use of water resources, the recovery of riparian forests, and the prevention and/or mitigation of disasters. These actions have a positive impact on the river basin and its use values, promoting sustainability and environmental resilience.

New construction of existing treatment, cleaning and sealing systems and installation of biodigesters, when necessary. As a complementary treatment, Root Zones are built - chambers filled with submerged filter media, where facultative and anaerobic microorganisms act, responsible for stabilizing the organic matter. To increase the efficiency of the system, macrophyte plants - species from marshes and humid environments - are used. The filtering material used is gravel 04, also known as “split stone”, at the bottom, and gravel 01 and gravel 00 at the top. Due to difficulties in the logistics of transporting the material, bamboo can be used as filtering material, since it is found in abundance locally.
