IOF SEMINAR – October 28, 2022

 

“El Pueblo es El Mar – The people are the Sea”

 

 

During this seminar, Dr. Veronica Relano will present her documentary “El Pueblo es El Mar – The people are the Sea”, which is part of her Ocean Decade project: “SOS  Somos OceanoS – We are Oceans”. This work explores the people stuck in the middle of natural resource mismanagement, and novel ways to start a conversation in the small community living around a poorly managed MPA.

The purpose-tailored, interview-based classification system, developed exclusively for this project identifies weaknesses in the different phases of an MPA. However, a peer-reviewed paper would be of little help to address the social and environmental challenges of places like San Antonio. One of the solutions is a documentary film for adults and kids utilizing the statements of local stakeholders collected from interviews. This film of 30min is the starting point for conversations among the local stakeholders.

Moreover, at the international level, this movie has subtitles in 8 different languages, drawing attention and raising awareness in similar coastal communities throughout the world. The documentary will motivate actors to relate to the experiences and challenges of communities and the reality of ‘paper Marine Protected Areas,’’ finding more integrated solutions.
