About us

The Lumen Sapientiae NGO – Light of Wisdom – is a nonprofit nongovernmental organization, created to promote the cultural, technological, social, and economic development of the artisanal fishing communities that form part of Peru’s marine-coastal ecosystem.

It was established in January 2001 and registered in the Public Registry of La Libertad. It holds RUC 20440141812, with its domicile in Trujillo, La Libertad Region, Peru.

Lumen brings together professionals from various disciplines, who contribute part-time, voluntary, and ad honorem work.

Our Project Management Office (PMO) brings together a team of specialists retired from companies devoted to both the artisanal fishery and the industrial fishery. They teach part time in graduate schools of universities in the northern region of the country.

Since its creation in 2001, Lumen Perú has led processes of research, design, development, installation, and operation of projects for the benefit of artisanal fishing communities and small enterprises in northern Peru.
