Human dimensions of the ecosystem approach to fisheries: an overview of context, concepts, tools and methods

This overview of social, economic and institutional aspects of an ecosystem approach to fisheries (EAF) was initially prepared to facilitate the work of the FAO Expert Consultation on the Social, Economic and Institutional Considerations of Applying the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries held in Rome, Italy, from 6 to 9 June 2006. The report was used as the primary background material and source of concepts and references for the supplemental EAF guidelines discussed at the meeting. Comments and additional inputs to the draft were received during the meeting from the Expert Consultation participants.
