Pesca artesanal no Parque Nacional do Cabo Orange: contextos de conflito socioambiental e estratégias de manejo alternativo

Abstract

This work aims to understand and describe how artisanal fishermen, who traditionally exploit the areas surrounding and within a conservation unit, specifically Cabo Orange, National Park, located in the municipality of Oiapoque, coast of Amapá, have ordered politically and environmentally with respect to environmental conflict scenarios in coastal waters - in fishing grounds. Thus, the study uses a qualitative methodology and privileges those involved in the setting of the fishing town of Oiapoque, these are: fishermen of Pará, ICMBio and fishermen of Amapá. The search results show that most of the artisanal fishermen associated with the Fishermen Colony of Oiapoque are remnants of a fishing community that was located inside the Park, call Village Tapereba. The National Parks are a model of conservation unit integral to nature protection, not allowing a human presence or exploitation of its resources. Consequently, this population was expropriated and from the interviews it was possible to see how the artisanal fishermen of Oiapoque, along with the Fishermen Colony of Oiapoque, outlined and proposed a management and a compensatory measure for expropriation has occurred since the creation of that park.
