Expert Consultation on Small-Scale Fisheries Management in Sub-Saharan Africa(2001 :Accra, Ghana)
Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
Rome : Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations,
2004.
The Consultation made a thorough review of management approaches employed in the small-scale fisheries in the region and found that government institutional arrangements/management were prevalent compared with traditional and co-management systems. However, most countries operate all three in various combinations and under varying circumstances. In view of the analysis of the experiences with regard to procedure, achievements, constraints and lessons learned, co-management emerged as a viable option for the present, and should be pursued into the future.
