JALA is the Advocacy Network for North Sumatra Fisherfolk.

JALA brings together fisherfolk and NGOs to address the problems faced by traditional fisherfolk, particularly the increasing poverty levels found in many fishing communities. JALA’s mission and vision is to stop the unsustainable exploitation of coastal areas in  order to achieve sustainable livelihoods for the fisherfolk of North Sumatra as well as the protection of local marine environments.
