Od Stelle Stylianou, malog ribara i \u010dlana Udruge profesionalnih ribara Zygi<\/strong><\/p>\n

Glasovi s mora je serija kolumni koja pro\u0161iruje perspektive malih ribara uklju\u010denih u kampanju "U\u010dinimo ribolov pravednim". Svaki mjesec, ribar \u0107e podijeliti svoje iskustvo rada na moru, stvarnost malog ribolova u svojoj zemlji i \u0161to se mora promijeniti kako bi se osigurala pravedna i odr\u017eiva budu\u0107nost ribarstva u Europi.<\/em><\/p>\n

Ro\u0111en sam i odrastao na Cipru, otoku gdje more nije samo dio krajolika \u2013 ono oblikuje tko smo. Ve\u0107inu mog \u017eivota, ribarska luka Zygi bila je moj drugi dom. Moj otac je jedan od tradicionalnih ribara tog podru\u010dja, a tijekom mog djetinjstva, na\u0161 ribarski brod bio je jedini izvor prihoda na\u0161e obitelji.<\/p>\n

Prvi put sam se ukrcala s osam godina. Tada je bilo rijetko vidjeti djevojku na ribarskom brodu. Kako sam starija, tako sam po\u010dela pomagati ocu kad god sam mogla, pridru\u017eiv\u0161i mu se u njegovom svakodnevnom radu na moru. Ono \u0161to je po\u010delo kao dje\u010dja strast, postalo je do\u017eivotna obaveza.<\/p>\n

Nakon \u0161to sam diplomirala politi\u010dke znanosti sa specijalizacijom u politici ribarstva, nadala sam se da \u0107u izgraditi karijeru u svojoj struci. Ali kao i mnogi mladi ljudi na Cipru, te\u0161ko sam pronalazila prilike koje odgovaraju mojim kvalifikacijama. Na kraju sam se vratila onome \u0161to sam najvi\u0161e voljela i postala profesionalna ribarica.<\/p>\n

Danas podupirem i Udrugu profesionalnih ribara Zygi, poma\u017eu\u0107i u organizaciji njezina rada i zagovaraju\u0107i prava ribara na lokalnoj, nacionalnoj i europskoj razini. <\/p>\n

Za male ribare poput nas, izazovi rastu na svim frontovima. Riblji stale\u017ei opadaju. Vremenski obrasci postaju nepredvidiviji. Tro\u0161kovi goriva nastavljaju rasti. Dohodak je nestabilan. <\/p>\n

U Zygi-ju, ti pritisci su poja\u010dani lokalnim stvarnostima. Razvoj plinsko-infrastrukturnih objekata velikih razmjera drasti\u010dno je smanjio ribolovna podru\u010dja koja su nam dostupna. Podru\u010dja na kojima smo nekada slobodno radili sada su ograni\u010dena, prisiljavaju\u0107i ribare na sve gu\u0161\u0107e vode. Rezultat je ve\u0107i pritisak na riblje zalihe, ve\u0107i operativni tro\u0161kovi i sve ve\u0107e frustracije me\u0111u onima \u010dija egzistencija ovisi o moru.<\/p>\n

Nismo protiv razvoja, ali ribarska zajednica ne smije postati kolateralna \u0161teta u potrazi za ekonomskim rastom. Tra\u017eimo ravnote\u017eu, odgovornost i uklju\u010denost te smo vi\u0161e puta iznosili zabrinutost zbog ekolo\u0161kih rizika i dru\u0161tvenih posljedica ovih projekata. Ipak, pre\u010desto na\u0161i glasovi ostaju ne\u010dujni.<\/p>\n

Iskusni ribari napu\u0161taju profesiju jer vi\u0161e ne mogu uzdr\u017eavati svoje obitelji. Najzabrinjavaju\u0107a posljedica je to \u0161to mladi ljudi ne vide budu\u0107nost u ribarstvu. Svjedo\u010de dugim radnim satima, opadaju\u0107im prihodima i maloj institucionalnoj potpori. Bez smislenog djelovanja, sljede\u0107e generacije ribara ne\u0107e ni biti.<\/p>\n

Ribarske zajednice su vi\u0161e od gospodarskih subjekata. One \u010duvaju znanje, kulturu, tradiciju i identitet koji su oblikovali obalna dru\u0161tva generacijama. Na otocima poput Cipra, ribari su dio dru\u0161tvene strukture. <\/p>\n

Za mene, pravednost u ribarstvu zna\u010di vi\u0161e od ciljeva odr\u017eivosti i dokumenata o politici. To zna\u010di osigurati da ljudi koji ovise o moru mogu ostvariti pristojan \u017eivot i sudjelovati u odlukama koje utje\u010du na njihovu budu\u0107nost.<\/p>\n

Treba nam holisti\u010dki pristup \u2013 onaj koji uravnote\u017euje za\u0161titu okoli\u0161a, ekonomsku odr\u017eivost i socijalnu pravdu. Trebaju nam politike koje prepoznaju ljudsku dimenziju ribarstva. Trebaju nam procesi dono\u0161enja odluka koji su demokrati\u010dniji, uklju\u010diviji i osjetljiviji na stvarnost s kojom se suo\u010davaju priobalne zajednice.<\/p>\n

Diljem kontinenta, mali ribari suo\u010davaju se s mnogim istim izazovima. Suradnjom, dijeljenjem iskustava i izgradnjom saveza, mo\u017eemo oja\u010dati svoj kolektivni glas i u\u010diti jedni od drugih. Europske mre\u017ee i pokreti pru\u017eaju prilike ne samo za zalaganje, ve\u0107 i za uzajamnu podr\u0161ku i inovacije.<\/p>\n

Dok gledam svog oca i njegovu generaciju, ne mogu zanemariti zabrinjavaju\u0107u mogu\u0107nost: osim ako ne djelujemo odlu\u010dno i brzo, oni bi mogli postati posljednja generacija ribara u Europi.<\/p>\n

Taj ishod nije neizbje\u017ean. Ali njegovo sprje\u010davanje zahtijeva hrabrost, suradnju i politi\u010dku volju.<\/p>\n

More nas je hranilo generacijama. Sada je vrijeme da dru\u0161tvo stane uz ljude koji su proveli svoje \u017eivote hrane\u0107i more.<\/p>\n
