Need

Finland has one of the highest participation rates in the world. It also has extremely sophisticated fisheries management and licensing schemes. This project will contribute to the development of the applicant by providing extended exposure to one of the world's most advanced recreational fisheries management systems. This will provide insights into the social, economic and environmental contribution of fishing in Finland that may lead to improvements to fishing in Australia. The applicant will be better placed to participate in, and contribute to, the better management of fisheries.

This project will strengthen participation in recreational advocacy by fostering the personal development of an identified Future Leader through exposure to diverse fishing experiences, an expanded knowledge base, a broader fisheries related network and a better understanding of co-mangement and ecologically sustainable development.

Objectives

1. To travel to Finland and enhance the personal development of the applicant
2. To study the management of fisheries in fresh and saltwater
3. To study the fishing licensing requirements and implementation
4. To study the fisheries compliance and education systems
5. To study the promotion and enhancement of recreational fishing
6. To investigate the interaction between conservationist and fishers, and the promotion of responsible fishing
7. To report the above findings to recreational fishing groups and fisheries managers

Need

Around 2.5% of Australia’s population is Indigenous, with the NT higher at 30%. Many remote communities in northern Australia are largely Indigenous.

Current discussion between the NTG and Indigenous groups is likely to see increased opportunities for Indigenous engagement in a broad range of fishing industry activities. The need for improved, coordinated, culturally appropriate RD&E and capacity building has been raised a number of times.

Despite extensive funding for Indigenous employment, training and education, Australia still lacks numbers of appropriately qualified Indigenous people, particularly in remote areas. Many previous attempts to provide these opportunities have largely been unsuccessful. Therefore to maximise these opportunities there is a need to have innovative and coordinated RD&E to assist in building capacity.

A number of institutions are undertaking Indigenous RD&E across Australia. Many Indigenous people feel that better results would be achieved by undertaking this in Indigenous communities where existing seafood industry and resource management activities already occur. Top End Indigenous groups have expressed an interest in developing local institutions to deliver RD&E and training related to the seafood industry, including wild-harvest, research, aquaculture, fishing tourism and resource management through a coordinated vehicle.

There is a need to investigate Indigenous people’s aspirations to scope the types of services required and delivery models which will address needs in a culturally appropriate manner, through Indigenous specific programs.

The NT is well placed to take a lead role in investigating the potential for a national investment in Indigenous Fisheries-RD&E. The aim of the project is to assess the potential for the establishment of a CoE in which investments can be planned, coordinated and funded across a range of prospective partners. However, before such a decision can be made, it is considered prudent to undertake a scoping study.

Objectives

1. Preparation of a scoping paper to assess the feasibility and level of support for developing an Indigenous Fisheries Centre of Excellence (IFCoE)

Summary

A number of individual, organisations and institutions across Australia are undertaking some form of Indigenous focussed Research, Development and Extension (RD&E) that has a fishing and seafood focus.  However in many instances this RD&E to the Indigenous sector has not been delivered in a strategic and coordinated manner.  

A number of Indigenous groups have expressed an interest in developing local institutions to deliver training, and to a lesser extent undertake RD&E, related to the seafood industry, including wild-harvest, research, aquaculture, fishing tourism, compliance and resource management.  It has been proposed that optimised outcomes may be best achieved by developing a coordinated approach through a more formalised service delivery vehicle, thereby allowing the development of areas of expertise across northern Australia to enhance delivery of RD&E to Indigenous people, service providers and funders. 

Many Indigenous people have expressed a view that greater involvement and better results would be achieved by undertaking RD&E in Indigenous communities, in close collaboration with, or being lead by Indigenous people.  Discussions have also shown that there is a need to focus RD&E towards programs that provide real socio/economic benefit to Indigenous people.

This Fisheries Research and Development Corporation (FRDC) supported project sought to collect information that would allow an assessment of the feasibility of establishing an Indigenous Fisheries Centre of Excellence (IFCoE) to cover northern Australia.
