Fishing is their sustenance, culture and life. At the same time, they acknowledge that the future of fishing depends on the balance between their economic needs, environmental preservation, governmental will, impact of climate change and other cultural factors. Several stakeholders take part in this story, narrated by voices from five different coastal communities in Cuba.

Los pescadores de la ‘lista quinta’ son el pilar económico de Cuba y la mayor fuerza laboral de todas las comunidades pescadoras de la isla. La pesca es su sustento, su cultura y su modo de vivir. Al mismo tiempo, reconocen que el futuro de la pesca depende de un equilibrio entre sus necesidades económicas, la preservación ambiental, la voluntad gubernamental, el impacto del cambio climático, y otros factores culturales. Varios actores hacen parte de esta historia, la cual es narrada por voces de cinco comunidades costeras diferentes en Cuba.
