For two days in late December, a group of student and professional writers from Jagna, Guindulman and Anda in Bohol sat down with two fishermen who shared with them their current plight amid dwindling catch due largely to commercial fishing and the effects of climate change.
The gathering was part of the Eco Literature Project on the Bohol Sea under the Bohol Arts and Cultural Heritage Council and Center for Culture and Arts Development.
The result is a compilation of creative literary pieces — poems, stories, riddles, essays — reflecting the challenges of the food producers and the coastal and marine environment featured in the documentary ‘Mga Sugilanon sa Paglawig sa Dagat Bohol’.
