A5 / ACTION STRATERGY FOR GROUPER CONSERVATION
Aim: To quantify, in French Guiana, the amount of legal and illegal fishing of the Atlantic goliath grouper by consultation with those involved locally in order to elaborate management that will better the species’ conservation status.
At Saint-Martin identify socio-economic issues involved in Atlantic goliath and Nassau grouper fishing by an enquiry with local people in order to define sustainable and concerted management. Define a protocol for identifying when and where young groupers arrive at coastal habitats in order to protect them. Start up a participative network of observers (fishermen, swimmers, divers) who will send in their grouper sightings.
