DocumentLessons learned from 'pilot projects' related to the management of coastal fisheries
Part I - Relevance of the concept of pilot projects in the context of coastal fisheries management
2014Also available in:
Pilot projects have greatly contributed to the success of the SmartFish Programme if reference is made to the first tangible effects and impacts of most of these projects. At the same time, SmartFish is continually adapting its approach by taking on board lessons learned as pilot projects are implemented, to improve practices, consolidate achievements, increase impacts and to work on their sustainability -
DocumentPromotion of initiatives to ensure the sustainability of the mangrove crab fishery and its value chains in Madagascar 2014
Also available in:
The mangrove crab fishery (Scylla scerrata) in Madagascar is an exclusively traditional fishing activity. Crab fishers walk or canoe through the mangroves and use very simple techniques and fishing gear such as a line or a hook mounted on a stick. It is estimated that about 80,000 people are involved in fishing and collecting mangrove crabs in Madagascar. Fishing and landing sites are often very difficult to access, and storage and transport facilities are very rudimentary: this is a sector that has significant post-harvest losses. In recent years, some mangrove areas – those most easily accessible - have already been over-exploited, resulting in a reduction in the average size of crabs caught. -
DocumentLessons learned from 'pilot projects' for the management of coastal fisheries
The implementation process of pilot projects
2014Also available in:
Smart Fiche 24 covers the definition of the ‘pilot project approach’ and its relevance in the context of management tools. This second part focuses on best practices and those that should be avoided during the different stages of the pilot project cycle. Indeed, one of the challenges has been to maximize impacts and guarantee sustainability whilst limiting the ‘transaction costs’ that this type of approach can generate. Nonetheless this approach has been enriched over the five years of the IOC-S martFish project and this information sheet provides an overview of the main lessons learned.
