Ocean Governance Forum Conference

Dar es Salam 18/19.02.25

Il rappresentante Vpm in loco Masai Leo (Resp. Ass. RBOO Masai Zone - Morogoro), membro della Ass. BMU (Furaha Community KigaBay-Dar) ci relaziona spontaneo l’evento governativo eco-marino e costiero, con encomio allo sforzo congiunto dal 2016 per la riqualificazione ambientale del popolare e bellissimo sito marino di Kigamboni beach con annessa area protetta di Sinda Island, nella periferia sud di Dar, collaborando a bandire la criminale pesca di frodo con dinamite, con il coinvolgimento della comunità di pescatori tradizionali Furaha residenti e immiseriti dallo scempio bombarolo, in un contesto balneare malavitoso e degradato, sovraffollato di rifiuti nei festivi e al contrario suggestivo e solitario nei giorni lavorativi. Interessante l’eco-consapevolezza per la tutela ambientale governativa. Da Stop Dynamite Race - Event 2017 molto è eco-incominciato grazie al progetto VPM specifico della Chiesa Valdese.

Ocean Governance Forum Conference
Dar es Salam 18/19 February 2025
Report

The Conference was good, I learnt a lot about ocean and eco-environment. We had a interesting time together.  

I was happy to see that the Association BMU - Furaha community, was recognised by government for being one of the best groups that keeps Kigamboni beach in order. 

Government congratulated them for our commune efforts to stop fishing bombing together with the illegal fishery by mosquito-net!

 Some of the BMU members (Beach Management Team) were giving interviews to 5 different TV Chanels.

And I was please to remember VPM at the government authorities that give us big support to keep Kigamboni beach clean, blue and green due to the coco-plantation too. Inzuri pia!

Asante Sana Kind regards Leo
