Case Studies

Cases are used in two stages of the project.

Firstly, studies of four international cases of innovative fisheries management regimes will contribute to the
development and revision of the draft Innovation Evaluation Framework.

Secondly, the revised Innovation Evaluation Framework will be tested in evaluations of management innovations through European test cases in the EU and the Faeroe Islands.
 

 
punkttegn  CEVIS International Cases
The last decades have witnessed a rise of innovative fisheries management systems, which include a wide range of alternatives such as: participatory governance, rights based approaches, effort controls and decision rule systems. The objective of the CEVIS includes analysing and comparing experiences with these different kinds of fisheries management regimes. The four International CEVIS case studies will take a close look at how innovations have been implemented in developed countries. This will allow the CEVIS project to identify indicators of success (or failure) in management outcomes as they are used in these regimes.
 
punkttegn  CEVIS European Test Cases
Three cases will be within the CFP, and, to allow further comparison with effort and rights-based approaches, a fourth Innovation Evaluation Framework test case, the Faeroe Islands, will be outside of the CFP. These cases all involve some sort of innovation based on the use of participatory approaches to fisheries governance, rights-based regimes, effort-control regimes and decision-rule systems. While these innovations are not being used in Europe on the scale that they are used elsewhere, they do exist on small scales and their implementation can be evaluated. Each of these cases will focus on two fisheries.
