RESUMO:

Artisanal or small-scale fishing plays an important role for coastal populations, as it assists in local social and economic development. In this segment, shellfish is one of the most common forms of fishing and subsistence activities. Despite its relevance, this work is still invisible economically and socially. Given this, education in this group is fundamental to develop real capacity for intervention and transformation of its reality. Thus, training in Good Production Practices can contribute to the improvement of their production practices, valorization of fish and, consequently, of the important work of shellfish farmers. Moreover, it is assumed that these educational activities can reach the formation of multiplier agents, people who participate in the formation process and present the challenge of passing on what they have learned to others. Given the above, the objective of this work was to demonstrate the contribution of a training experience conducted by shellfish farmers, as multipliers of food safety, to the improvement of shellfish processing practices and improvement of the quality of artisanal fish. This is a descriptive intervention study of a qualitative and quantitative nature, which was carried out with shellfish farmers from São Francisco do Conde, Bahia, Brazil. For this, an educational intervention work was conducted that included the formation of multipliers agents of Good Fish Production Practices and, later, the training of new community seafood restaurants by these knowledge diffusers. To obtain the information, we used assessment tools of shellfish knowledge (structured questionnaire) and processing practices (checklist), as well as a conversation wheel developed with the help of script questions. Quantitative data were tabulated and processed in a database using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences - SPSS, v 21. The results of the structured questionnaires and checklists were analyzed, respectively, using the Wilcoxon and Pearson's chi-square test. . The qualitative data from the Conversation Wheel were transcribed and treated by content analysis, with definition of categories / subcategories. There was a statistically significant difference in shellfish knowledge (Z = -3.350; p = 0.001 <0.05) and practices (X2 (2) = 98; p-value <0.001) after the training performed by the multipliers. There was a significant improvement in the work, regarding the cleaning of facilities, equipment, furniture and utensils, personal hygiene, vector control and urban pests, water supply, waste management and shellfish preparation. Still, it was verified that the instructors presented characteristics that helped in learning, effective communication and the feeling of appreciation of shellfish and their work. In view of this, the formation of multiplier agents was an effective instrument for improving artisanal fishing and promoting food safety in fishing communities, and it is recommended that this strategy be disseminated to other coastal and riverine communities.
