A regional workshop and expert meet was organized in 2012 as a ‘Consultation on revitalizing Andaman and Nicobar Tribal fishers through Fish Harvest and Post-Harvest Technologies (CRAFT)’. This identified the course of interventions for the Nicobar tribal community’s marine fishery. Scoping surveys and field visits were conducted in Car Nicobar Island to assess existing fishing activities and sensitize the tribal fishing community to the need for the interventions. These interactions sought to understand tribal fishers’ basic requirements and expectations in undertaking fishing activities.
