Understanding migration amongst the traditional fishers of West Madagascar

The present migration of traditional fishers is symptomatic of the many challenges faced by poor coastal people in South West Madagascar. Significant migrations of traditional fishers take place over the entire west and southwest coasts of Madagascar. Here, myriad movements take place, ranging in distance from tens to hundreds of kilometres, and in time scale from short fishing trips lasting a few weeks to seasonal migrations of three to nine months.
