Need

The formation and subsequent development of WIN has been a major new initiative for the South Australian fishing and seafood industry. Having had a successful first 16 months of operation, the time is right to review and focus WIN with an aim of expanding the member base to include a broader cross section of the fishing industry.

Strategic planning is essential if this organisation is to provide benefits to individuals within the fishing and seafood industry, and the industry as a whole. Without planning for the future, the full potential of such an organisation will not be realised and members and the industry may become disillusioned about WIN's ability to achieve its goals.

This proposal aims to strengthen WIN by broadening and focussing its membership base and to prepare a plan for the future as an organisation. As part of this, there is a need to identify the strengths of WIN and focus these towards attaining its objectives. The project will also investigate ways of linking fisheries related agencies, organisations and associations with WIN to assist in this strategic planning for the South Australian fishing and seafood industry.

Women within this industry have often been the isolated and invisible partners. However, by working together industry may benefit from the diverse talents of these women. Following the establishment of networks and increasing the industry’s awareness of WIN over the past 16 months, WIN is now in a position to become focussed on what it is aiming to achieve and prepare a plan for achieving this. The result will be the development of a valuable resource for the state's fishing and seafood industry.
