![Page 2: 2/19/2016 1 Fish Out of Water? Inter-sectoral Conflicts, Trade-offs and Synergies in Freshwater Resource and Coastal Zone Management](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020411/5a4d1b677f8b9ab0599b11b9/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Competition and Interactions• Fisheries and aquaculture compete for space and
resources in the most contested and fastest-developing geographical areas on earth – coastal zones and river basins
• Coastal zones and river basins provide globally significant environmental goods and services
• While many of the interactions within the fisheries sector and between the sector and other activities are of a competitive or antagonistic nature, a number of complementary or synergistic interactions may also exist

Freshwater Resources • Inland fish production will continue to face
increasing competition for water from other uses• Integration is required in order to facilitate
sustainable inland fish production• Use allocation will require close liaison between
user groups, transparency in the decision-making process, cross-sector education
• An important focus is the evaluation and management of trade-offs associated with infrastructure development

Freshwater Resources • Inland fisheries are greatly undervalued in water
management decisions • Better valuation methods that pay more attention
to non-formal values, particularly those concerning livelihoods, biodiversity and food security are urgently needed
• The ecosystem approach, with its focus on maintaining ecosystem functioning, is fundamental to managing water for inland fisheries and aquaculture

Freshwater Resources • Hydrological approaches to water management
tend to focus on in-stream quantitative flows and often ignore the important impacts on quality and extent of adjacent floodplains and their associated wetlands
• Fisheries and aquaculture can play an important role in effective water management across the continuum from rain fed to irrigated agriculture, and increase the resilience of poor communities

Coastal Resources • The livelihood of residents in coastal areas is
usually directly linked to coastal resource use• The environments of coastal zones are
influenced not only by human activity along the coastline and in adjoining seas, but also by activities inland and in associated watersheds
• These issues are often complex and cross sectoral boundaries
• They are difficult to resolve in a single-sector management regime.

Coastal Resources • Fisheries and aquaculture must be conceived as
part of wider local, regional and national (scale) economic development and resource management strategies (nested)
• The entire process is closely linked to the institutional and organizational context in which the fisheries and aquaculture sector operates
• A major challenge is to modify the existing context in order to achieve preferred patterns of coastal resource use.

Coastal Resources • Marine protected areas (MPAs) can be considered
components of ICM programs because they protect the biodiversity and ecological processes
• MPAs have come to be advocated as the solution for all fisheries and ecosystem management problems
• MPA management must be coordinated and integrated with coastal and fisheries management activities outside the boundaries and linked to development programs that address the needs of local people

Governance, Decisions and Trade-Offs
• Improved governance processes are needed that facilitate compromise by stakeholders and favor integrated resource management
• New institutional arrangements are needed to link decisions on upstream uses and resource management to those for managing downstream uses (integrated aquatic resource management)
• Decentralization reforms to local levels • Clearly defined goals and responsibilities to
address issues at different scales 05/04/23 9

Principles for Investment
• Support institutional and governance reforms that link decision-making across sectors and across multiple scales of intervention
• Integrate an ecosystem-based approach into infrastructure planning
• Adopt multi-criteria analysis for water allocation and use environmental flow assessment as a way to quantify the environmental criteria
