Opis

The aim of the project was to revive Itajaí's historical and cultural heritage, which is fishing. Due to its excellent coastal location, the municipality of Itajaí has an important infrastructure for the growth and development of the fishing sector. The city of Itajaí is an important fishing center which, together with the other coastal cities of Santa Catarina, accounts for 90% of all industrial fishing production in Santa Catarina. As fishing is one of the oldest and most important professions for the livelihood of many families, it is essential that the activity is valued and stimulated in order to reach future generations. Some of the bodies responsible for the fishing sector have been losing ground and credibility. The Ministry of Fisheries itself has been abolished and is now under the responsibility of the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, so it is up to society in general to cultivate and value this profession.
