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.Text1 digital file (41 p. : ill.)enMARINE RESOURCESCOASTAL RESOURCESCOASTAL COMMUNITIESMARINE RESERVESLITTORAL ZONESCOASTAL FISHERYMANGROVESPOVERTY ALLEVIATIONKENYAAssessing links between marine resources and coastal peoples' livelihoods : perceptions from Kiunga Marine National Reserve, KenyaIDRC Final Report
