Stakeholder process in DEEPFISHMAN Pascal Lorance, IFREMER
Overall stakeholder process Workshop in Brussels, 29-30 June 2009 - DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder identification - SWOT analysis of existing management measures Workshop in Lisbon, 4 December 2009 - Cognitive maps of Case study fisheries Workshop in Lisbon 4 July 2011 - stakeholder contribution to model developmement Questionnaires i Haul-by-haul catch and effort data provided by staholders Final workshop TOMORROW!!!
Workhop in Brussels 29 30 June 2009 Identification of categories stakeholders Stakeholders with an interest in DEEPFISHMAN

Questionnaire Aim: Identify management issues and suitable management measures Web-based (http://deepfishman.hafro.is) Distributed during one RAC meeting and at regional level 9 questions + free text 45 responses from 3 deep-water fisheries Q3: How do you see the future of deep-sea fisheries? Do they hold a better future, worse, or more or less the same as now? n = 43 Better (will attract more investors) r ( 13/45) e (25/45) Worse (not viable) r (7/45) More or less the same (viable) Stakeholders perception: - Not viable fishery for red seabream in Greece - Two other fisheries perceived viable 0 Trawling 5 10 SBR Greece 15 SBR 20 Spain 25 BSF Portugal No. responses
Q4: Which of the following management tools would you like to see changed? All dissatisfied Nothing should change Fuel taxing Control of rec. fishing BSF_Portugal RSB_Greece Trawling Subsidies Gear bans Spatial closures Seasonal closures Ind. quotas Effort restrictions Licensing TACs 0 2 4 6 8 10 No. responses Current management not satisfying TACs, spatio-temporal closures and licensing most cited Diversity of responses
Q5: Which of the following management tools are best suited to protect the deep-water ecosystem? Control of rec. fishing BSF_Portugal RSB_Greece Trawling Gear bans Spatial closures Seasonal closures Ind. quotas Effort restrictions Licensing TACs 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 No. responses Five management tools favoured TAC understood as stock management, not ecosystem-based Lorance, P., Agnarsson, S., Damalas, D., des Clers, S., Figueiredo, I., Gil, J., and Trenkel, V.

Stakeholder data and knowledge used for stock assessment Lisbon, 4 July 2011 Meeting with French and Portuguese fishers to present and get input on the model for black scabbardfish
