Abstract:
Fisheries management around the world seeks the same things – to set up a process for ensuring fishing is sustainable for people and ecosystems – but the ways it is implemented vary tremendously. Tyler has observed and participated in two very different fisheries management systems: small-scale, barely managed, coral-reef fisheries in the Dominican Republic and commercial, federally managed fisheries in the northeast US. In this talk, Tyler will share his research from the Dominican Republic, how it informed his work in the northeast, his thoughts on the positive aspects of US fisheries management that could be applied to developing-country contexts, as well as perspectives from the Dominican Republic that should be considered in countries with extensive management systems already in place.
