Abstract

This paper describes a Fishery-System Approach to broadening the scope of fishery management, to better incorporate crucial aspects from across the fishery system and beyond. The approach builds on and incorporates an Eco-System Approach which looks at target fish species and fishing activity within the context of the ecosystem. The paper (a) outlines how livelihood issues - relating to societal objectives, the post-harvest sector, fishery diversification, women in fisheries, and household decision making - interact with fishery management, (b) draws lessons from integrated coastal management, particularly in terms of fishery interactions with other sectors, and (c) explores the potential for a Fishery-System Approach to deal with such factors of unsustainability as poor governance, lack of secure rights, poverty and lack of alternatives, and an unbalanced treatment of sustainability components.
