Description
The key objective of this project is to investigate existing national and international research knowledge on the management of fisheries that have recognised Indigenous interests, how this knowledge interfaces with commercial enterprises, and sustains the health of the fisheries and the cultural traditions of the Indigenous people. Accommodating such components into existing legal frameworks remain a challenge for various governments and is a challenging matter in many of the world's fisheries. The Torres Strait fisheries is no different and exists in a complex legislative framework.
