National Fisheries Solidarity Organization (NAFSO)

National Fisheries Solidarity Organization (NAFSO) is a fisherfolk movement in Sri Lanka that works with marginalized groups such as internally-displaced persons, women and youth to promote human rights and true sustainable development, particularly in the agriculture and fisheries sectors in post-conflict Sri Lanka. NAFSO challenges harmful development models - specifically, land and sea-grabbing – and works to empower communities whose rights are threatened by these practices in efforts to contribute to lasting peace in Sri Lanka, based on equity, social justice, democracy and full respect for the rights of women and minorities.
