Abstract

The Orissa Marine Resources Conservation Consortium has developed a project that aims at marine conservation goals through a focus on strengthening livelihoods. The project is an extension and expansion of the efforts of the first phase of a project, undertaken with support from the Ford Foundation and administered through the OMRCC member - the United Artists’ Association – an organisation based in coastal Orissa. The OMRCC and the current project began around the urgent problem of building resolution mechanisms for conflicts between marine conservation and fisheries livelihood goals. The project finds common ground in these two apparently opposing goals and aims at enhancing the livelihoods of local fishing communities, in particular those affected the most by marine conservation measures of the State, which restrict their access to fishery resources.
