The ecosystem approach to fisheries management (EAFM) offers a practical and effective means to manage fisheries more holistically. It represents a move away from fisheries management that focuses on target species, towards systems and decision-making processes that balance environmental, human and social well-being within improved governance ...

EAFM provides a fisheries relevant framework to help you bring different management strategies/approaches/tools (e.g. co-management, coastal zone management, MPAs etc) together in a clear, logical and structured approach; EAFM allows the threats to the long-term sustainability of the fishery to be viewed alongside shorter-term economic needs.

This is the Participant Workbook for the Essential Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management (E-EAFM) training course. The workbook contains the entry forms and pages for the individual and group activities which are part of the training course.

6 天之前 · This EAFM symposium is directed to assisting the management of deep-sea fisheries, especially for demersal and small pelagic species. This is undertaken by flag states through regional organisations with the mandate to manage these species.

an integrated approach to fisheries within ecologically meaningful boundaries. An EAFM is a practical way to implement sustainable development for the management of fisheries by finding a balance between ecological and human well-being through good governance. The purpose of EAFM is to plan, develop, and manage fisher-

What is an Ecosystem approach to fisheries management (EAFM)? Canada currently uses a single-stock approach for the majority of the stocks we assess and manage. This approach assesses one stock at a time to consider the impacts of fishing on the abundance of …

2016年4月1日 · Explores science, policy, society interface when implementing EAFM in the EU. Provides descriptions of the ACs and their current science–policy interactions. Present lessons from practical experiences of ACs moving into EAFM advice. Absence of a clear link between CFP and MSFD hinders a true co-creation process.

Ecosystem-based management aims to maintain ecosystems in a healthy, productive, and resilient condition so they can provide the services humans want and need. In the fisheries sector, this approach is referred to as ecosystem-based fisheries management—or EBFM.

EAFM merges fisheries management, with its focus on provid-ing food and livelihoods for humans, and ecosystem manage-ment, with its focus on protecting and conserving ecosystem structure and functions. Some elements of EAFM are already being done through conventional fisheries management. However, EAFM builds

Ecosystem-based fisheries management is a holistic way of managing fisheries and marine resources by taking into account the entire ecosystem of the species being managed. The goal of ecosystem-based management is to maintain ecosystems in a healthy, productive, and resilient condition so they can provide the services humans want and need.
