dc.description.abstractThis case study seeks to understand the bottlenecks to good governance of marine resources in Kiunga, northern Kenya where there has been considerable conservation and management intervention in the area over time. Co-management initiatives are still relatively new and have yet to reap tangible benefits in terms of improved fisheries management and improved livelihoods. Considering the high levels of poverty and dependence on natural resources, alternative income-generating activities now need to be pursued. The area has enormous wealth in terms of eco-tourism as it is beautiful and has very high aesthetic value due to minimal development and high biodiversity.en
