Abstract

This document reviews the development of culture-based fisheries enhancements in Bangladesh and discusses the outcomes in the context of the social and economic impacts. The various management arrangements and the risks and benefi ts they entail for the stakeholder groups are examined as well as the roles of donors, Non governmental Organizations and the government and its agencies. Culture-based enhancements have been encouraged as a panacea solution to increase benefits from fisheries, however, here it is concluded that the entry point for fisheries management should not be stocking. Interventions such as sanctuaries and limits on fishing effort are less risky and cause less social conflict. Habitat rehabilitation has a higher initial capital cost but does not require recurring annual investments in stocking.
