Hello everyone,
I have a question about marine protected areas (MPAs) and food security. As we're seeing around the world, MPAs are being used more and more for fisheries management purposes (i.e. supporting the spillover of fish from protected areas into fishable waters). Though more data certainly needs to be collected on spillover, I'm curious - what do people think the challenges and opportunities are in explicitly connecting MPAs to food security objectives?
Does anyone know of programs that already making this linkage? Are there any good journal articles, case studies, or reports out there that you can recommend? Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
