Abstract

Overfishing, habitat destruction and the introduction of exotic series is having a divesting impact on aquatic biodiversity and thus on fish population. These impacts are exacerbated by capture fisheries and industrial aquaculture and have led to all the world's main fishing grounds being fished at or above their sustainable limits. In contrast ,nurture fisheries, used by artisanal fisherfolk and small-scale fish farmers, maintain and develop aquatic biodiversity. This booklet explains how, through supporting artisanal fisherfolk, the decline in the diversity of fish-species can be reversed.
