Governing the Governance (WG6) examines what institutions and principles are suitable for the governance of fisheries. WG6 will conduct an analysis of current governance discourse to understand what images, principles and practices underlie key policies and decisions, how they materialize in governing institutions and strategies, as well as how closely they relate to those of small-scale fishing people. The team will also examine the extent to which existing institutions and governance systems contribute to fostering or inhibiting the quality of fisheries governance in general and in the context of small-scale fisheries in particular. WG6 Leader: Dr. Svein Jentoft, Norway.
