Sunamganj community based resource management project (SCBRMP): an approach to sustainable beel fisheries management

S.M. Mohsin

in Monographs from The WorldFish Center

Abstract: Sunamganj is a land dominated by floodplains with seasonally flooded tectonic depressions known locally as haors and smaller water bodies known as beels. PeopleÆs livelihoods and culture are largely dominated by the haor economy where beel fisheries play a very critical role. Although the beel has a wide range of resources, the people at large have not been able to benefit from them. A small number of people by virtue of their power and influence have been exploiting the resources overriding all the codes of resource management and maintenance.
