No results found.This manual is intended to facilitate a learning process which will arm field level fishery extension officers with knowledge and skills to assist fisherfolk communities in their efforts to collectively address their needs and problems. It is designed to be used in two ways: Firstly, as a trainer’s manual: the document begins with participatory rapid rural analysis to understand the status and dynamics of communities. moves on to needs analysis and identification. problem analysis. generating solution option, planning activities, group formation and management, savings and credit management and finally project planning, implementation and management.

Book (stand-alone)Learning by Doing in Bangladesh - Extension Systems Development for Coastal and Estuarine Fisherfolk Communities - BOBP/REP/65 1994
Also available in:
No results found.This report describes the process, achievements and learnings of a subproject which set out to learn by doing pilot extension activities, and give direction to the development of a fisheries extension service aimed at the coastal and estuarine small-scale fisherfolk of Bangladesh. The subproject was cleared by the Government of Bangladesh (GOB) in April 1989 and was initiated in the two target districts of Borguna and Patuakhali in July 1989. Along the way, the UNFPA proposed a component aimed s pecifically at enabling the development of women in fishing communities. However, the main phase of the activity could not be funded by UNFPA, and a scaled-down version was incorporated into the subproject in July 1991 by the Bay of Bengal Programme (BOBP). The main component of the subproject, consisting of 19 pilot activities, came to an end in December 1992 and the women’s activities came to an end in September 1993. The Bangladesh Department of Fisheries (DOF) was responsible for the ex ecution of the subproject. BOBP provided technical assistance, expertise, training inputs, support for training, grants to establish revolving funds for enterprise development, equipment and monitoring. The training was designed and coordinated by Mr. Md. Shahid Hossain Talukder and provided by a group of Bangladeshi trainers drawn from various nongovernmental organizations. -
ProjectThe Socioeconomic Condition of The Estuarine Set Bagnet Fisherfolk in Bangladesh - BOBP/WP/90 1993
Also available in:
No results found.This working paper describes the socioeconomic survey of selected estuarine set bagnet (ESBN) fishing villages in Bangladesh. It deals with village profiles, households and population structured according to sex, age and education. The households have been stratified according to income-generating activities and income. Fishing households were stratified even further on the basis of the craft and gear combinations owned, owned and operated, or operated only and their income estimated on a monthl y basis. Variations in income within the community of ESBN fishermen and relative income from different sources are also discussed with opportunities for generating income from sources other than the ESBN fishery. The survey was based on a sampling of six villages, each one identified in each of the six strata into which the estuarine areas of Bangladesh was divided. This survey was conducted to obtain baseline socioeconomic parameters that are relevant to the management of the ESBN fisherie s and forms the input, along with the information on their fisheries interacting with it (BOBP/WP/89), for the ‘Biosocioeconomic assessment of the impact of estuarine set bagnet fisheries on other marine fisheries in Bangladesh’ (BOBP/REP/62).
