Abstract:
Coastal fisheries constitute an important source of employment and income for many coastal communities in Tangier. However, and despite its importance, there is little information available about their socioeconomic characteristics. Hence, this study was aimed to improve the knowledge about the socioeconomic and livelihood status of the fishermen in the port of Tangier. The work is totally based on a diagnosis of socioeconomic indicators derived from data obtained through a structured questionnaire carried out during 20XX to fishermen of coastal fishing. Fishermen have gaps in education and awareness about the issues related to the sustainability of resources. The great importance of this coastal fishery in the fishermen’s household income is observed. In spite of the commercial value of the caught species by coastal fishing, income net profit is somewhat acceptable, and the wealth produced by this fishery has hardly impacted on the quality of the fishers’ lives.
