Collaboration between Welfare for Persons with Disabilities and Inland Water Fishery

Abstract

As for the marine products industry, a job growth and the labor circumstances improvement of the new employee are needed toward development of the stable culture business now. The welfare industry performs an action called “Noufukurenkei” to solve this problem. This is to engage in agriculture as working support of the people with a disability. However, this has few examples reported in the marine products industry. However, an NPO corporation in Ainan town, Ehime Prefecture runs aquaculture business as a work support for persons with disabilities. When examining this case, matching between welfare and fisheries worked well.
