Given the changing climate and frequent disasters, the uncertainty of life among small-scale fishers is very high. MSSRF has developed and piloted multilingual single window Fisher Friend Mobile Application in partnership with Qualcomm, INCOIS, Coast Guard and State Governments of Tamil Nadu & Kerala. The project is envisioned to support artisanal marine fishermen to respond to climate change by introducing adaptive capacities for minimizing economic, environmental and human losses, building resilient fishing communities by creating awareness on the importance of sustainable fishing practices, enable access to key real-time scientific information, and early warning by using affordable and energy efficient ICTs among fishers.
