La presente investigación se centra en la problemática ambiental de la Ciénaga de Morrocoy, en su actividad pesquera como fuente esencial de ingresos, de los pobladores del corregimiento de San Rafael, municipio de Arenal, Sur de Bolívar, que ha sufrido en la última década un acelerado deterioro ambiental, afectando el ecosistema vital para la explotación de sus propios recursos, que impactan de esta manera, en la dinámica ambiental y socioeconómica de las comunidades que en ella se encuentran, siendo los pescadores los más afectados. En ese sentido, se propone un estudio orientado al desarrollo estrategias socio-productivas adecuadas que buscan potenciar la actividad pesquera y las condiciones de vida del Corregimiento de San Rafael.
Para el desarrollo del estudio se utilizó, el tipo de investigación cualitativo; en sintonía con ello, se emplearon herramientas propias de este modelo como el diálogo de saberes, la observación directa, los grupos focales, entrevistas de profundidad, una encuesta e historias de vida. El fin de la investigación fue precisamente estudiar la problemática ambiental de la Ciénaga, teniendo en cuenta el aporte y la actitud de su comunidad frente al problema, la educación ambiental y lo que representa la Ciénaga para ellos; se plantea el diseño de estrategias socio-productivas y ambiental, basado en la comunidad que permitiera implementar las cadenas productivas en el sector pesquero; de igual manera, se concertó aunar esfuerzos para generar las condiciones favorables, en las que, autoridades ambientales, instituciones estatales, y la comunidad asumieran el compromiso de trabajar por la restauración de la Ciénaga.
Entre las conclusiones más significativas del presente estudio, se pueden destacar, la importancia del cambio de actitud de la comunidad frente al deterioro de la ciénaga, que se asuma un papel protagónico, responsable y autocrítico, permitiendo la viabilidad del modelo de estrategias socio-productivas que se han planteados como esencia del proyecto de investigación. El estudio deja como uno de los productos principales, una caracterización integral, que cubre tanto la actividad pesquera, como la situación socioeconómica del corregimiento.
The present investigation focuses on the environmental problems of the Ciénaga de Morrocoy, in its fishing activity as an essential source of income, of the community of the corregimiento of San Rafael, municipality of Arenal, Sur de Bolívar, which has suffered in the last decade a accelerated environmental deterioration, affecting the vital ecosystem for the exploitation of its own resources, thus impacting the environmental and socioeconomic dynamics of the communities that are located there, with fishermen being the most affected. In this sense, a study aimed at developing adequate socio-productive strategies that seek to optimize fishing production and the quality of life of the Corregimiento de San Rafael is proposed. The qualitative research was the type used for the current study; In line with this, tools typical of this model were used, such as the dialogue of knowledge, direct observation, focus groups, in-depth interviews, a survey and life stories. The objective of the research was precisely to study the environmental problems of the Ciénaga, taking into account the contribution and attitude of their community towards the problem, environmental education and what the Ciénaga represents for them; The design of socio-productive and environmental strategies is proposed, based on the community that would allow the implementation of productive chains in the fishing sector; In the same way, it was agreed to join efforts to generate favorable conditions, in which environmental authorities, state institutions, and the community assumed the commitment to work for the restoration of the Ciénaga. Among the most significant conclusions of this study, we can highlight the importance of changing the community's attitude towards the deterioration of the swamp, assuming a leading, responsible and self-critical role, allowing the viability of the model of socio-productive strategies that is have been raised as the essence of the research project. The study leaves as one of the main products, a comprehensive characterization, which covers both the fishing activity and the socioeconomic situation of the corregimiento.
