Catching sea urchins with deadly venom
Join Amira on her Meti-Meti. 🦀🐚🪸
The word “Meti” refers to low tide. When the sea recedes, reefs and tidal flats are revealed.
In coastal Indonesia, families walk out together to gather shellfish, sea cucumbers, crabs, and seaweed.
But Meti-Meti is more than harvesting food; it’s generations of deep ecological knowledge about lunar cycles, tides, and the ecosystems that sustain coastal communities.
At Rare, we're proud to work with fishers to revitalize coastal fisheries and to partner with local leaders, governments, funders, and NGOs to empower local communities to manage them sustainably. 💙🌏
