class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">La campagna di sensibilizzazione per promuovere il rispetto delle taglie minime del pesce del settembre 2012 ha una sua specificit\u00e0: l&#8217;impegno \u00e8 rivolto alla categoria dei grossisti e in particolare a quelli che operano in uno spazio ben preciso: le pescherie attive nei mercati urbani della <\/span><\/span><span class=\"jCAhz\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">capitale Dakar. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\"><span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"it\"><span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Quali sono le sfide rappresentate dall\u2019affrontare questa categoria di persone in questo specifico ambito, e qual \u00e8 l\u2019interesse ad intervenire a questo livello?<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Quale strategia viene adottata?<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Quali sono i risultati raggiunti e quali le prospettive future per i leader delle associazioni di categoria incontrati sul posto?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\"><span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"it\"><span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Le principali ragioni per cui <em>Mundus maris<\/em> ha scelto di condurre un programma di sensibilizzazione sulle buone pratiche che garantiscano la sostenibilit\u00e0 della pesca specifico per questi attori sono le seguenti: in primo luogo, un mercato come Kermel a Dakar, a causa della sua distanza dai luoghi di sbarco del pesce, non<\/span><\/span> c<span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">rea automaticamente l\u2019opportunit\u00e0 per i grossisti di essere al corrente dei diversi programmi in corso legati alla crisi delle risorse.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\"><span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"it\"><span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Di conseguenza, visto il modo in cui normalmente lavorano, non hanno familiarit\u00e0 con il concetto e la realt\u00e0 dello sviluppo sostenibile: si limitano a dedicare il tempo minimo necessario all&#8217;acquisto dei prodotti dai porti di pesca e trascorrono gran parte della giornata a commercializzarne i prodotti.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Ecco perch\u00e9 <em>Mundus maris<\/em>\u00a0 ha allargato la sua formazione e sensibilizzazione verso a attori che lavorano nel centro della citt\u00e0.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"it\"><span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">In secondo luogo, vista l\u2019importanza del coinvolgimento dei consumatori in campagne di sensibilizzazione a favore delle buone pratiche di sviluppo sostenibile, il Mercato Kermel \u00e8 il luogo d\u2019elezione delle classi ricche e medie della capitale senegalese (che siano senegalesi o di ogni nazionalit\u00e0 residenti nella capitale).<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Il discreto stato di sicurezza e igiene alimentare, grazie alla buona manutenzione rispetto ad altri mercati pi\u00f9 di massa, fa infatti di Kermel il punto d&#8217;incontro di una classe di consumatori colti, tra cui il Corpo Diplomatico in Senegal.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Questa categoria di consumatori \u00e8 in linea di principio pi\u00f9 ricettiva ai messaggi sulle pratiche che promuovano lo sviluppo sostenibile rispetto ad altri tipi di consumatori ordinari, spesso animati da un certo fatalismo riguardo al crescente degrado delle risorse.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-image-element awb-imageframe-style awb-imageframe-style-below awb-imageframe-style-2\"

class=\"ryNqvb\">Durante questo primo contatto, abbiamo presentato <em>Mundus maris,<\/em> ma anche gli strumenti che potrebbero interessare direttamente i grossisti: il righello per pesci, il poster con lattine di soda per la misurazione dei pesci e il poster sull&#8217;ecosistema senegambiano, <\/span><\/span><span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">inizialmente sviluppato nel contesto delle attivit\u00e0 pilota del Progetto EAF Nansen della FAO per l\u2019introduzione dell\u2019approccio ecosistemico alla pesca.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In seguito a questo primo <span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"it\"><span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">incontro, i pescivendoli ci hanno invitato a tornare per spiegare il cartellone, aiutarli a interpretarlo correttamente, ma anche a fare con loro prove di misurazione del pesce.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Abbiamo trascorso sul mercato ben quattro ore consecutive

\u00e8 il fatto che le misurazioni hanno dimostrato che molte specie di pesci vengono consumate al di sotto delle dimensioni minime indicate sul righello.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Di conseguenza, i pescivendoli hanno espresso un&#8217;unica domanda: come ottenere i righelli per pesce.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span

Some 500 to 600 wholesalers are present on a daily basis. More than 80% of these are women-fish mongers who, having sold their produce, return home daily. It is a marketing hub with fishery products coming from all the landing places of Senegal, and even including those from neighbouring countries, such as Gambia, Mauritania and Guinea. The wholesalers supplying the market are men.<\/p>\n<p>For the campaign itself, we relied on three different actors as potential partners and profile each other.<\/p>\n<p>It is first of all the checkpoint team, a service representing the fisheries department. This team is responsible for statistics, the control of origin and safety, but also to ensure strict compliance with size limits, although we note on the basis of our own observations that this is not respected. The team leader, Mr. Issakha, and colleagues assessed the fish ruler. They found it revolutionary as the only ruler that the team had at its disposal is made of paper and can hardly be used in the wet conditions of a market like this. The team only regrets the fact that the water-resistant ruler is expensive and that it would take a large amount of money to introduce it considering the number of wholesalers operating daily in the market.<\/p>\n<p>Then we worked with one of the associations of wholesalers headquartered in the market: the National Collective of Wholesalers in Senegal. Collaboration between Mundus maris and the association of wholesalers is facilitated by Babacar M&#8217;baye, co-founding and member of the national office. Mr. M&#8217;baye, better known under the name M&#8217;baye Rokh, is the first to have worked with Mundus maris in Senegal as part of our pilot activities with fishmongers (see website).

Two important remarks made by the women on site need to be highlighted, namely:<\/p>\n<p>(i) the ruler is easy to understand and can be used, because the key for them is to recognize the species, but<\/p>\n<p>(ii) for effectiveness and impact, they propose some additional actions to be included in the agenda of wholesalers&#8217; organisations active up-stream in the Central Market and at other locations along the Senegalese coast.<\/p>\n<p>The big wholesalers responsible for the supply of domestic markets in the country in turn wish to deploy other means, e.g. to help them publicise the regulations on the allowable size of marketed species during their movements. In the opinion of the big wholesalers, beyond these supports, it will important to consider other activities, including meetings between wholesalers and the fisheries administration at the most important landing centers. According to them, the ruler raises the question of law enforcement. The simple demonstration of this tool alone may not achieve the expected results.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1704 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/collectifmareyeurs.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/collectifmareyeurs-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/collectifmareyeurs-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/collectifmareyeurs.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>M&#8217;Baye Rokh and Babacar Ndiaye of the National Collective of Senegalese Fishmongers and Aliou Sall of Mundus maris standing in front of the Fishmongers&#8217; office<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-panel panel-default panel-49a1d239c37c1ed3e fusion-toggle-has-divider\" style=\"--awb-title-color:var(--awb-color8);--awb-content-color:var(--awb-color6);\"><div class=\"panel-heading\"><h3 class=\"panel-title toggle\" id=\"toggle_49a1d239c37c1ed3e\"><a aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"49a1d239c37c1ed3e\" role=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#49a1d239c37c1ed3e\" href=\"#49a1d239c37c1ed3e\"><span class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"fa-fusion-box active-icon awb-icon-minus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-fusion-box inactive-icon awb-icon-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"fusion-toggle-heading\">At some sales points of fish in the city of Dakar<\/span><\/a><\/h3><\/div><div id=\"49a1d239c37c1ed3e\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse \" aria-labelledby=\"toggle_49a1d239c37c1ed3e\"><div class=\"panel-body toggle-content fusion-clearfix\">\n<p>In the last few years we have witnessed a proliferation of sales outlets of fish in the city of Dakar and the suburbs, usually at major intersections of bigger roads, where households who can not go to traditional markets, can get supplies. The success experienced by these outlets is mainly due to the fact that they help save time in a growing city where mobility is increasingly becoming problematic.<\/p>\n<p>So we expanded our awareness activities to some sales outlets of fish, such as exchange market at the bridge towards Hann, the Soumb\u00e9dioune market and the bridge of the Patte d\u2019oie. At these outlets, the success experienced by the fish ruler is related to its easy understanding by the micro fish vendors, especially since all species sold on site are illustrated on the ruler.<\/p>\n<p>However, there is the recurring question of how to provide each woman or small groups of women with enough rulers. According to the women interviewed, namely the more numerous ones in Soumb\u00e9dioune, the simple fact of not having a measuring instrument &#8211; especially for those who do not want to make any effort &#8211; could be an excuse to ignore the regulations on the size of the species.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1699 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/mbayerokhcentralmarket.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/mbayerokhcentralmarket-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/mbayerokhcentralmarket-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/mbayerokhcentralmarket.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Mr. M&#8217;Baye Rokh inside the Central Fish Market of Dakar<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-panel panel-default panel-4875fd720972e2798 fusion-toggle-has-divider\" style=\"--awb-title-color:var(--awb-color8);--awb-content-color:var(--awb-color6);\"><div class=\"panel-heading\"><h3 class=\"panel-title toggle\" id=\"toggle_4875fd720972e2798\"><a aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"4875fd720972e2798\" role=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#4875fd720972e2798\" href=\"#4875fd720972e2798\"><span class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"fa-fusion-box active-icon awb-icon-minus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-fusion-box inactive-icon awb-icon-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"fusion-toggle-heading\">Fish landing places in Mbour and Joal<\/span><\/a><\/h3><\/div><div id=\"4875fd720972e2798\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse \" aria-labelledby=\"toggle_4875fd720972e2798\"><div class=\"panel-body toggle-content fusion-clearfix\">\n<p>Our work in Mbour was facilitated by Mr. Mame Ousmane Gueye, member of the National Office of UNAGIEMS (National Union of Economic Interest Groups of Wholesalers) and also Chairman of the Inter-GIE (Legally established groupings of fishermen, fishmongers and fish processors in Mbour). The two fish rulers we put at the disposal of Inter-GIE allow for demonstrations with wholesalers and micro-fishmongers.<\/p>\n<p>These tests started in December 2012 making their way and hopefully we shall meet the wholesalers responsible in the near future for an appreciation. The same exercise is underway at Joal, in collaboration with the responsible wholesalers operating at the loading dock and with the collaboration of Messrs Mbaye Fall et Amadou Samb, members of the local association of wholesalers.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1694\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/mm_fishruler_senegalvert.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"26\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/mm_fishruler_senegalvert-200x9.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/mm_fishruler_senegalvert-300x13.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/mm_fishruler_senegalvert-400x17.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/mm_fishruler_senegalvert.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4415,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[93],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8087","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-il-mare-ci-nutre"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8087","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8087"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8087\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11263,"href":"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8087\/revisions\/11263"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4415"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8087"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8087"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mundusmaris.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8087"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
