Co-operative fishery management models

Co-operative fishery management models involve groups of fishermen, communities, or nations working together to regulate fishing activities. They establish shared rules and limits to prevent overfishing, ensuring sustainable fish populations for the future. This approach encourages collaboration, data sharing, and joint decision-making, balancing economic benefits with environmental conservation. By coordinating efforts, stakeholders can avoid resource depletion, reduce conflicts, and promote responsible fishing practices that support both local livelihoods and marine ecosystems.
