SEIXAS, Cristiana S. et al. Gestão compartilhada do uso de recursos pesqueiros no Brasil: elementos para um programa nacional. Ambient. soc. [online]. 2011, vol.14, n.1, pp. 23-44. ISSN 1414-753X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1414-753X2011000100003.

This paper is an output of a workshop carried out in 2006, in Tamandaré, PE, aiming to discuss elements for the construction of a national program of fisheries co-management in Brazil. This program should be constituted by many participatory action-research projects with the potential to contribute for the incorporation of the co-management concept in public policies. The workshop involved 30 researchers who identified: (i) opportunities/driving factors and (ii) limitations/problems faced for fisheries co-management in Brazil, and (iii) research lines and actions needed to subsidize the construction of such program.

Keywords : Fisheries management policy; institutional arrangements; collaborative fisheries management; participatory action-research.
