The Spot Prawn Fishery: A Status Report - Earth Economics

The Spot Prawn Fishery: A Status Report
laborative discussion of the changes necessary to
guarantee the sustainability of the spot prawn fishery.
APEX hopes to obtain comments and criticisms
from as wide a range of interests as possible. We
expect that this information will be obtained
through informal discussions and meetings. In
addition, APEX will host a series of more formal
meetings. First, we plan to organize a gathering at
which scientists and managers can come together
to share information, management strategies, and
possibly a vision for the future. This will be followed
by a series of regional workshops where all
interested parties can roll up their sleeves and
start the hard work of moving past rhetoric to
begin co-creating a sustainable future for the
spot prawn fishery.
