Tips for practice
7. Conflict resolution through innovative technology
CLPA Fase Boye consists of four communities: Fase Boye, Mboro, Lite, and Jogo. Fase Boye, Lite, and Jogo are active in drift-net fishing, while Mboro is active in bottom gillnet fishing. The difference in fishing practice is a source of conflict, as drift nets get entangled with bottom gill nets at night. The fishermen of CLPA Fase Boye have resolved the conflict by applying innovative technology. When considering how to solve problems in fishermen’s conflicts, it is necessary to identify the nature of the problem first, and then examine the solution from different perspectives.
