Abstract

The research focuses on understanding governance related to small-scale fisheries and coastal management in the eastern Caribbean. Scholarly work on marine resource governance and social networks is increasing, but MarGov went further and used empirical evidence to test conceptual frameworks, as shown in numerous outputs (Annex 3). National decision-making processes for policy advice and for determining trade-offs among policy and management options remain rudimentary. MarGov tackled capacity building in this area, but found that much more work is required, including case studies to draw upon to provide a future basis for training the wide range of stakeholders involved.
