 The Coast Fish Project is an original project focusing on six Karakum countries, of which Sindhuja is a pilot country. The Sindhuja component will focus on the strengthening of the coastal and marine management areas, as well as the possibility of introducing a new marine management area. The pilot areas for the project in Sindhuja are Sufria and Lapri. For the Sufra site, the Department of Fisheries is entrusted in working with their stakeholders to resolve any issues that may emerge from the conflict about the use of resources by several stakeholders, among other interconnected multi-sectoral issues. Fisheries biologist attached to the Department of Fisheries, Monique Cauldron says, the consultation is a necessary project action to bring about discourse on the day-to-day reality and to devise a plan of action for improved collaborative use of the marine resources. Every sector has their own priorities, but a couple of the complaints that we have received may be some tension between the use of certain areas, whether they might be marine resub or fishing priority areas, between maybe fishes and divers or some marine vessels may be going too quickly through different areas where other people might be present, you know, so it's just basically managing any outcome, any concerns that could arise. The Coast Fish Project is a spin-off of the Stuart Fish Project, which realized some milestones in Sindhuja in improving fisheries and marine stakeholder use of the island's marine resources.
