New England Catch Shares Workshop
The New England Fisheries Management Council and the Fisheries Forum, in partnership with the Gulf of Maine Research Institute, co-sponsored a workshop on catch shares in October 2009.
The Fisheries Forum also offers various products and services including periodic Innovations Reports, policy papers, regional workshops and access to faculty and experts that can provide advice that is tailored to the needs of fishery managers. As a neutral convener, the Fisheries Forum can bring together a variety of expertise and perspective to provide insight on a fishery management topic.
As such, the Forum does not advocate for specific management approaches or solutions. Instead, we act as a conduit for information to connecting fishery managers with the research, analysis and experts they need to bolster their knowledge base, ask the relevant questions and make informed decisions. Our products and services can include:
- Regional Workshops;
- Research & Analysis;
- Expert Referrals;
- Innovation Reports; and
- Hotline.
