Data needs for fisheries management in the Southeast Florida Reef Tract_1st Community Meeting Summary_June 2020

The project aims to strengthen engagement of the fishing community in SEFCRI projects with the aim of
harnessing the capacity of this community to promote coral reef ecosystem conservation. This is to be
achieved through implementation of a participatory process to engage diverse fisheries stakeholders in
developing new fisheries-related Recommended Management Actions (RMAs) and in reviewing water
quality and habitat-related RMAs developed during the Our Florida Reefs Community Planning Process,
with a view to identifying and promoting RMAs that address concerns considered critical by fisheries
stakeholders.
