The influence of socio-environmentalist on the living conditions of the populations, specifically traditional ones, can be an indicator of the quality in which they live. Socio-environmental aspects may diverge when compared between different countries and communities. The objective of this research was analyzing the socioenvironmental indicators of two fishing communities, one in Brazil, located in Lagoa de Cima and Marsaxlokk, located in the Republic of Malta. The research took place first Brazil and subsequently in Malta. Using the statistical methodology of intentional sampling, semistructured interviews were conducted with 28 fishermen from both locations. It was concluded that the influence of socio-environmental aspects reflects the actual situation in which each community lives considering the precariousness of sanitation services. In addition, there was a divergence regarding the credibility of those interviewed from among the public authorities in Brazil, when compared to the rest of Malta
