Traditional Fishing in Bangladesh
November 7, 2025, Kishoreganj, Dhaka, Bangladesh: As the monsoon waters recede, local fisherman SHAMSU MIA, 55, along with his team, has begun traditional fishing in the haor areas. Using the age-old bhesal net, they set out early in the morning to catch seasonal fish left in the shallow waters. This period marks one of the most active fishing seasons for haor communities, providing vital income for many families. Mia, a fisherman for over three decades, says the haor is not only their workplace but also their lifeline, sustaining generations through its natural bounty.

Bangladesh: Traditional Fisherman
November 7, 2025, Kishoreganj, Dhaka, Bangladesh: After the monsoon floods recede, fishermen in the Haor region turn to the traditional method of using ''Bhesal'' nets to catch fish. These large, conical-shaped nets are cast into shallow waters, where fish gather as the water levels drop. Skilled fishermen maneuver the nets, scooping up species like Carp, catfish, and sneakheads, which are vital for local livelihoods. The practice, passed down through generations, supports both the economy and the cultural heritage of the Haor, showcasing the resilience of communities who rely on this delicate wetland ecosystem.

A growing appetite for jellyfish promised a boom for fishers in Honduras. But then the storms came
A decade after Chinese investment, La Mosquitia's processing plant is sitting idle and jobs have been lost as the climate crisis takes its toll.
The jellyfish's vulnerability to changes in climate makes harvesting possible only during the predominantly sunny seasons, which last about three months in Honduras. Extreme weather events frequently reduce or interrupt these windows of opportunity.

'I trust my eyes, not the forecast': Alexandria is sinking. Why don't local fishers believe it?
The ancient Mediterranean city is at risk as sea levels rise. But most people in the vulnerable fishing village of El Max believe it will always weather the storms of time.
Alexandria is one of the world's sinking cities, along with Venice, Miami, Lagos, Jakarta and others. An IPCC report predicts that with global sea levels rising at the current rate, and without adequate preventive measures, thousands of kilometres of the Nile delta could be fully submerged by 2100.
A Mixed Migration Centre study that interviewed 100 residents of the suburb found that 90% of them had no plans to leave the area and only a handful believed that the rising water was even a threat.

Anger over fish stocks as Senegal village mourns boat disaster dead
Grieving relatives and friends of people who died in Cape Verde boat disaster say more will leave unless conditions improve.
Hundreds of motorised canoes decorated with swirls of green, red and blue line the beach of Fass Boye, a small fishing village in northern Senegal. The handpainted boats, known as pirogues, used to return to shore brimming with fish, residents say. But as fish populations began to ebb over the last decade, the boats assumed a new role. Instead of carrying fishers out to sea, now they take them to Spain's Canary Islands in search of economic opportunities.
On 16 August, one such boat that had departed from Fass Boye with 101 people onboard was found drifting off the coast of Cape Verde. It held only 38 survivors.
Fass Boye residents and environmental groups blame the Senegalese government for doling out fishing permits to industrial trawlers from Asia and Europe, which they say are responsible for the decline in fish stocks.

Anger over fish stocks as Senegal village mourns boat disaster dead
Grieving relatives and friends of people who died in Cape Verde boat disaster say more will leave unless conditions improve.
Hundreds of motorised canoes decorated with swirls of green, red and blue line the beach of Fass Boye, a small fishing village in northern Senegal. The handpainted boats, known as pirogues, used to return to shore brimming with fish, residents say. But as fish populations began to ebb over the last decade, the boats assumed a new role. Instead of carrying fishers out to sea, now they take them to Spain's Canary Islands in search of economic opportunities.
On 16 August, one such boat that had departed from Fass Boye with 101 people onboard was found drifting off the coast of Cape Verde. It held only 38 survivors.
Fass Boye residents and environmental groups blame the Senegalese government for doling out fishing permits to industrial trawlers from Asia and Europe, which they say are responsible for the decline in fish stocks.
