Integración de las perspectivas maoríes en la gestión medioambiental y la pesca
Resumen
Las perspectivas maoríes sobre la gestión medioambiental abogan por un enfoque equilibrado e interconectado, que dé prioridad a la sostenibilidad a largo plazo. Esto contrasta con los enfoques más reduccionistas y orientados a la economía, centrados en los beneficios comerciales a corto plazo. Este documento ofrece una visión general del Sistema de Gestión de Cuotas (SGC) de Nueva Zelanda y de los derechos de pesca de los maoríes. El documento describe aspectos del mātauranga Māori (conocimiento maorí), explicando conceptos clave como kaitiakitanga (tutela) y su aplicación en la gestión de la pesca comercial. La investigación destaca cómo las empresas pesqueras de propiedad maorí equilibran los intereses económicos con la tutela cultural y medioambiental, superando los requisitos reglamentarios para proteger los entornos marinos. El documento analiza los retos a los que se enfrenta la industria, incluidas las cuestiones medioambientales y la presión pública en favor de la sostenibilidad, al tiempo que señala el potencial de crecimiento, especialmente en la acuicultura. Al analizar el éxito de la integración de la cosmovisión maorí en el sector de la pesca comercial, este documento demuestra el potencial de conciliar los sistemas de conocimiento indígenas con las prácticas modernas de gestión de los recursos. Concluye que el enfoque maorí de la gestión pesquera ofrece valiosas ideas para equilibrar el desarrollo económico con la preservación ecológica y cultural.
