By articulating and co-constructing different methodologies and scientific knowledge on climate change, the project was structured in three stages (April-October 2021): interviews people who practice fishing (PPP) in Mtsamboro village in Mayotte, mediation and the creation of mediation tools, and a participatory workshop. In the end, we conducted 34 interviews and 21 residents participated in the workshops. The interview grid was co-constructed by the research team. The workshops were also co-constructed by the researchers based on the first analyses of the interviews and tested with the inhabitants. Four themes were used to design the workshops: coral, sediment, toponymy, and the chronological and temporal timeline in relation to the history of Mayotte and prevailing changes in the climate and environment.
