Introduction to Catch Share Design Manual

This Design Manual is the first-ever comprehensive overview and roadmap of catch share design, drawing on hundreds of fisheries in over 30 countries, and expertise from over 60 fishery experts from around the world.

However, the Design Manual is not prescriptive: It is a series of questions whose answers help guide and inform the catch share design process. Detailed discussions of design elements are coupled with case studies to outline and highlight options. Certainly, various design options should be developed for their potential to meet the particular biological, economic and social goals of the fishery under consideration.
