The capacity of fisherfolk to implement beach management units in Diani-Chale.
The main objective for the formation of fisher groups in Diani-Chale was the initiation of development projects to improve their living standard and achieve self-reliance. Advocacy for fisher rights, equipment/gear purchase and fishers welfare were mentioned as additional objectives (in order of importance). Revenue collection and conflict resolution were stated as objectives by a few members, but not by officials. Conversely, conservation/sanitation and marketing of fish was an important objective for group officials but not for the membership.
