Abstract

The tsunami that affected 12 countries in the Indian Ocean region, wreaked considerable damage in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. The damage to lives, property and livelihoods requires a sustained and coordinated strategy towards rehabilitation. Any possible intervention towards rehabilitation needs to take into account the socioeconomic and environmental situation prior to the tsunami, to be more effective. The report that follows is, therefore, in two sections. Section I provides background information on the fisheries sector in Tamil Nadu, and on the fishing communities in the state. Section II provides available information on the damage caused by the tsunami on the fisheries and other sectors.
