Abstract

Stagnation in marine fisheries sector has prompted fishery managers to think of an alternative fisheries management strategy where both government agencies and fishing communities participate in decision making, exercise authority and share responsibility. Fishermen tend to see the rules promulgated by scientists and policy makers as ineffective, unrealistic and imposing. It is being increasingly recognised that fisheries can be better managed when fishermen are involved in management. It calls for a new management philosophy, one in which the fishermen, the traders and the exporters can become active members of the fisheries management team, working in co-operation with Government fisheries managers.
