In addition to live in communities that are rural, with inadequate infrastructure services, scarce health services or educational, and basic needs unmet in most households, they live dominated by the "macho" system of a rural culture, without recognition of their rights, or their work inside and outside the home. Why is this study which was carried out with a joint, qualitative and quantitative methodology. The collection of information used the following methodological instruments: implementation of a survey and a focus group semi structured to participants of the same target group (men, women and young people, all of them older than 18 years, fish sellers in the periphery of the public market Manuel Larrainzar).
