- Centralized decision-making must be replaced by regional stakeholder management in order to adapt to regional ecosystem conditions.This is one of the key findings from studies of successful fisheries management in Norway, Canada and the US. The report from the studies has been produced by centre partner Baltic Nest together with Baltic Sea 2020 and will be presented during the Brussels-based conference Achieving Sustainable Fisheries - learning from best practice in fisheries management.
The report is the result of a project which has gathered recognized scientists from natural, economic and social sciences, together with key stakeholders, to investigate known examples of successful management, trying to find potential solutions to the ongoing fisheries crises.
Following an opening address from Commission Borg of DG Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, the report was presented by Mike Sissenwine from Woods Hole and David Symes from University of Hull.
