Abstract

Due to the current fishing situation at the Colombian Caribbean, which is defined by difficulties such as the lacking of appropriate fishing techniques, (Grijalba et al. 2011) that impact negatively the environment and the fishing resource, added by a policy that is not coherent to the social reality (CCO 2010), and a continuous environmental degradation (INVEMAR 2010), it is evident the needing of alternatives that can confluence the previous problems and solve them effectively, including an educational component to mitigate the low technical level of local communities. Accordingly, to this perspec-tive, an intervention model is proposed for the fishery affair: the triad (TRIADA). This is a combination of three performers who work in a geographical area and who work on the multi scale fishery production topic. The “professionals”, who provide the research, leaping out from conceptual to productive, as changing agents, looking at ecology since natural sciences to social sciences, (Ramírez 2000) and applying the Environmental Didactic strategy (Sánchez 2004) through the real fishing productive field, amplified towards aquaculture. “Communities”, traditionally productive and informal, in this case although, organized and well oriented toward the technological achievement in their activity, and finally, “private institutions”; enterprises belonging to a related productive sector, that while continuing its enterprise´s mission, either developing new business fields or doing its current job with its financial muscle, include in its working plans this triad.
