An hour long lecture on the role of Management and Operational Research in the governance of global fisheries. Global fisheries, like many open access natural resources, suffer for a tragedy of the commons effect. Population dynamic modelling can help provide the insights and understanding necessary to achieve sustainability.

The brochure "Facts and figures on the CFP" describes the fisheries and aquaculture sector in figures. It is based mainly on data complied by Eurostat, the European Union Statistics Office, but also on figures collected by the European Commission and the FAO. It reviews the latest developments in the fisheries sector in the 27 EU countries and in the candidate countries. All sectors are covered: catches, aquaculture, trade, Community aid, processing and all the related socio-economic indicators, such as employment, fleet and consumption.

This presentation shows what is aquaculture, the different methods of aquaculture, and why aquaculture is important. Aquaculture benefits the oceans, economy, and environment. It maintains the health of our oceans, lessens the severity of overfishing, and reduces the transfer of diseases in sea creatures. It is a form of agriculture for those regions with poor soils and farming lands. In addition, aquaculture improves the health of the people by incorporating seafood into their diet.

2. • The problem: The state of the ocean’s
ecosystems
• The design space – Fishery?
Sustainable? – and the key issues
• Fisheries and their stakeholders –
and supply chains
• The battle over sustainability –
strategy and tactics
• Designing sustainable fisheries
4. The world’s oceans
• The overall state of fishery stocks is worse than previously known
• Developed countries are slowly and unevenly stabilizing and
rebuilding fisheries
• Middle income countries have more mixed trends, with large
industrial fisheries often better managed than smaller or coastal
stocks
• Developing country fisheries appear to be seriously overexploited
• Open ocean stocks managed by UN-authorized Regional Fisheries
Management Organisations (RFMOs) are in a precarious situation
• The habitat and wildlife effects of fisheries are disastrous across
almost all geographies
(Charting a Course to Sustainable Fisheries, California Environmental Associates, 2012)
5. The world’s oceans
Overfishing has impoverished
the integrity of the ocean’s
ecosystems to a greater degree
than previously acknowledged.
7. The world’s oceans
What is to be done?
Can we design a sustainable
system for fisheries?
But: What is the ‘system’?
And: What would a successful
system design require?
9. The design space
• Fishery
– A geographic location and the fish species captured there
– Combines industrial and scientific ways of understanding
(a place for fishing + the particular fish stock that lives there)
Note: By ‘fish’ I mean here not only finfish but also crustaceans and molluscs, whether they dwell in the ocean or freshwater (or both)

Peruvian anchoveta

Engraulis ringens
This is the single most important fishery in the
world, accounting for 5 to 6 million tonnes of
landings annually. The anchovy is also the key piece
within the Southeastern Pacific ecosystem.
12. The design space
• Fishery
– A geographic location and the fish species captured there
– Combines industrial and scientific ways of understanding
(a place for fishing + the particular fish stock that lives there)
The scale (artisanal industrial) and
method of capture matter a great deal
13. The design space
• Fishery
– A geographic location and the fish species captured there
– Combines industrial and scientific ways of understanding
(a place for fishing + the particular fish stock that lives there)
But what about the ecosystem
(not just that particular fish stock)?

physical = soil, water, air
• Climate change and ocean acidification
• Fishing methods and habitat impact
(especially in the benthic zone – the ecological region at lowest level
of a body of water)
16. The design space
• Sustainable/responsible fishing
– Fishing practices and management that ensure fish stocks
and marine eco-systems are maintained and protected for
future generations
17. The design space
Key issues in sustainable fishing
• Overfishing - Too many fishing boats
• Overfished stock - Too few fish left to reproduce effectively
• Marine habitat - the ocean ecosystem (sharks, seaweed, turtles,
dolphins, seagulls, coral, …)
• Fisheries management - the system that says who is allowed to fish,
where they are can fish and the methods they can use, and how
much they can catch
• Bycatch/discards - when fishermen throw fish overboard (usually
dead)
• Illegal fishing (e.g., fish caught by unlicensed boats)
• Traceability (Where did the fish come from?)
20. Fisheries and their stakeholders
• Stakeholders
– Catchers (and their communities and/or employers)
– Processors
– Buyers (large retailers, like Wal-Mart in the States or
Kesko in Finland)
– Government (or intergovernmental) agencies who
manage the fishery
– Consumers/citizens
• The organisation of the supply chain
29. Sustainability and its challenges
• Achieving sustainable fishing practices is hardly a
straightforward task!
• There are significant challenges that ultimately
inhibit their realisation, especially in making the
transition to sustainability
• Reducing catches and introducing new fishing practices
to allow fish stock to recover are often necessary
• But this generally means hardship for some
stakeholders, albeit temporary
(higher value placed on short-term benefits; benefits not evenly distributed
amongst stakeholders; data gathering for adequate management difficult to
achieve)
30. The battle over sustainability
• Scientists and NGOs vs industry (whether large
industrial fleets or small scale and artisanal
catchers) and governments
• Strategies and tactics in the battle
– Scientific analysing and reporting, advising regulators

33. The battle over sustainability
• Scientists and NGOs vs industry (whether large
industrial fleets or small scale and artisanal
catchers) and governments
• Strategies and tactics in the battle
– Scientific analysing and reporting, advising regulators
– Blame and shame campaigns + political lobbying

42. Fishery improvement:
Can you design a sustainable fishery?
In order to develop strategies for averting a
fisheries collapse and restoring sustainability,
it is first necessary to understand the unique
set of forces operating in any given fishery.
43. Fishery improvement:
Can you design a sustainable fishery?
• It is better to work together with the
industry (from retailers to catchers) to
improve a fishery than to stop buying or
selling its fish
• There are many ways to improve fisheries
– Healthy fish stocks
– Protection of habitats and marine life
– Effective management of fishing activities
– ...
44. Fishery improvement:
Can you design a sustainable fishery?
But how can you get stakeholders to take risks
and overcome their short-term mentality?
How can you get regulators to follow scientific advice?
Note that in many parts of the world, there
are no regulatory bodies to manage fisheries,
and no possibility of legal remedies to
harmful, unsustainable fishing practices.
45. Fishery improvement:
Can you design a sustainable fishery?
Design concept: A partnership between scientists,
the fishing/seafood industry, and NGOs to co-design
improvement plans, use supply chain leverage to
put them into action, monitor the results, make
adjustments as needed …
46. A relatively new concept …
• Scientists and NGOs vs industry (whether large
industrial fleets or small scale and artisanal
catchers) and governments
• Strategies and tactics in the battle
– Scientific analysing and reporting, advising regulators
– Blame and shame campaigns + political lobbying
– Consumer education
– Community development/assistance
– Market transformation
50. It is highly unlikely that the market transformation
strategy can succeed on its own. We are dealing with
a system that is deeply political – at stake are huge
revenues, national economies, and the livelihoods of
many people (and their communities). All these
strategies and tactics will be needed!
