New resource available on the Reef Resilience Network website!

The Reef Resilience Network Finfish Aquaculture Toolkit is designed for marine managers and practitioners who are working in a reef system that contains nearshore fish aquaculture cages or are considering management decisions on whether or how to permit finfish aquaculture cages in the nearshore environment.

The toolkit provides an introduction to:

• finfish aquaculture and its importance for food security and livelihoods
• impacts, mitigation, and proper management
• site selection
• community-based aquaculture
• legal and regulatory frameworks to support sustainable aquaculture

The Finfish Aquaculture Toolkit was developed by the Reef Resilience Network in collaboration with TNC’s Micronesia Program and Global Aquaculture Program.
