Overview

'The Collaborative Network for the Rehabilitation of Andaman Communities and Natural Resources' has mobilized field-based taskforces to provide rapid assistance and conducted preliminary damage and loss assessments. The destruction of housing, fishing boats and fishing gears, and the death of hundreds of small-scale fisher-folk, has taken away communities' livelihoods.

However, many communities have been able to establish recovery mechanisms, based around new or existing community organizations. These community organizations are able to facilitate the immediate relief process, organize the repair of fishing boats and fishing gears, and begin drafting community-based natural resource rehabilitation plans.

In working with the small-scale fisher-folk the network has identified some significant marginalized groups, and proposed a number of implementation approaches and implementation phases. The network is also encouraging collaboration with academia, the private sector and the government.
