Lomè is the capital and largest city of Togo, located on the Gulf of Guinea. On the coast is traditionally active fishing with large nets released near the shore and pull on the beach by the strength of dozen of young men joined in a cooperative. The fish caught in the net are often scarce and of small size at the expense of hard daily work. Indeed, the micro finance gave these men the opportunity to buy new nets to work with.
