Abstract

Although customary marine tenure(CMT) systems for the management of local marine resources occur throughout the world,compared with other models of fisheries management they remain relatively unknown.The Pacific Basin , is especially rich in CMT systems, which play key roles in overall social,economic and cultural life of societies.Based on the example of Solomon islands , this paper examines the organizational principles and potentials of CMT systems to provide sustainable yields and equitable access to resources,their resilience to external pressures and mechanisms for ensuring local autonomy in resource control.This paper also demonstrates that CMT systems are expressions of Traditional ecological knowledge and shows the importance of knowledge to scientific research and planning of resource management.
