Mariculture Issue Profile

Tanzania Mariculture Issue Profile

Document format: pdf

Publisher: Tanzania Coastal Management Partnership Support Unit and the Mariculture Workshop

Creation date: August 1999

This study identifies and characterizes the environmental management and governance issues associated with mariculture development in Tanzania. Mariculture development provides a good model for institutional analysis and issue identification because it typifies many of the economic activities that are increasingly exerting pressure on coastal areas. From a governance perspective, it represents a multi-disciplinary field requiring close intersectoral coordination and cross-sectoral policy development. From an environmental management perspective, mariculture exemplifies some of the more complex challenges, because it is often conducted where terrestrial and aquatic habitats meet, and is closely linked to other socioeconomic activities and issues.
