Coastal Fisheries Management

In this course, we will provide a brief introduction to coastal fisheries and sustainable fisheries management, including the importance of coastal fisheries and sustainable management, basic terminology, an overview of the fisheries management cycle and the elements and considerations necessary to design effective fisheries management. This course will focus on the application of fisheries management to address the challenges and context of coastal and small-scale fisheries; however, the general concepts could be applied to all fisheries.

This course is intended to be an introduction to fisheries for anyone interested regardless of background or knowledge level but will be particularly helpful for those participating in a FishPath engagement. If you are brand new to fisheries management, we suggest starting with Module 1.  If you already have some basic knowledge Module 2 may be a more appropriate starting point.

Duration: 4 Hours
