In October 2021, a small fishing community in Chale, south of Diani on the Kenyan coast, welcomed me to witness and document their shallow water fishing practices.

This small village's story is a reflection of other similar communities who struggle with maintaining a traditional artisanal income generating livelihood amid increasingly depleted fish reserves in the shallow waters of the Indian Ocean.

A more detailed account of this story was published on The Elephant online magazine (January 2022). Follow the link here for the article: https://www.theelephant.info/photos/2022/01/07/dianis-changing-waters/
