Overview
• Marine fisheries is important
o Artisanal fisheries (14,000 fishers)
o Industrial fisheries
o Recreational fisheries
o Distant Fleets (EEZ)
o 0.5 – 2 km (seagrass & Coral reefs)
o Influenced by monsoon winds
o Catch per fish is low
o Annual catch – 10,000 tonnes
• Fishing occurs nearshore

• Most species landed are demersal
• Marine fishery is data limitedo Few data o Poor qualityo Raw data yet to be processed
“[...] of the 121 commercially exploited species only 45 species have been studied in terms of their biology.” (Fondo et al., 2014)

• 82% of the fishers are not licensed (GOK, 2013).

So then what…?
• Recognize fishing ground tenure and access rights• Interest in Locally managed areas
• No of LLMA 1 in 2006 to 14 in 2016
• Support the development and enforcement of local fishing rules
• Support for local enforcement units
Achieving sustainability for the Kenyan artisanalfisheries:
• Tenure of fishing grounds is secure
• Access is regulated with the participation of fishers using that fishing ground.
