Summary: | A provincial forum was held on 12-13 September 1994 to discuss with resource managers and decision-makers the various management systems of fisheries and other coastal resources in Palawan [Philippines], guided by institutional analysis as the framework for evaluation. The various experiences suggested that the current fisheries management systems were determined by several contextual variables such as biophysical and technical attributes, market structure, attributes of fisher stakeholders as well as external institutional arrangements and other exogenous factors. Three emerging fisheries co-management systems were identified. Two were spearheaded by national government agencies while one was administered by a city government. A common thing was the delineation of management responsibility among the various participating organizations. To become fully operational, however, co-management systems must meet certain requirements. These included development interventions, e.g. provision of physical infrastructure and post-harvest facilities; further research, particularly on subjects where information was lacking like level of fishing effort and supplemental /alternative livelihood activities, and activities to operationally define the organizational and institutional arrangements |
