10.  Problems: Strong reduction of marine resources exploited by artisanal fisheries (jack mackerel, sardine, anchovy, loco, sea urchins, algae, surf-clam, snails). Increase of artisanal fishermen registered in labor organizations. Political division inside the labor organizations. Low managment capacity inside the labor organizations. Low recognition of the women role in the artisanal fisheries, mainly on benthonic recources.

11.  ¿Solutions?: ◦ Improve of management capacity inside the labor organization. ◦ Promotion of aquaculture activities by artisanal fishermen, maily mussel farming and benthonic algae. ◦ Reduction of the number of associates in the labor organization. ◦ Better control on fisheries landings. ◦ Promotion of the women participation in the labor organizations.
