RT null T1 A Handbook on Governance and Socioeconomics of Large Marine Ecosystems A1 University of Rhode Island, A2 Olsen, Stephen A2 Juda, Lawrence A2 Grigalunas, Thomas A2 Sutinen, Jon A2 Hennessey, Timothy K1 marine ecosystem PB University of Rhode Island YR 2006 FD 2006 LK https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/12485 UL https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/12485 NO The primary purpose of this Handbook is to serve as a practical guide to innovators of governance and socioeconomics in Large Marine Ecosystem (LME) projects. The Handbook explains why governance and socioeconomics are important to the success of resource management in the LME context. Good governance and socioeconomics can lead to good outcomes; bad governance and socioeconomics nearly always doom management efforts to failure. To improve the chances of successful management, the Handbook explains the basic principles and ingredients that make for good governance and socioeconomics – at all phases of LME project development, from the Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis to the Strategic Action Plan, and implementation of adaptive management and sustainable financing.
