10–11 September 2001 in Fredericia, Denmark - FAME (the workshops website).
Guest Lecturers:
Professor Daniel Bromley, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Research Professor Jesper Raakjær Nielsen, Institute for Fisheries
Management and Coastal Community Development
Background:
The core challenge of exploitation of natural resources is to align individual and social incentives so as to resolve the externality problem. Much effort has been mounted towards identifying institutions that can modify incentives for overexploitation and thereby eliminate the problem. Several researchers question the utility of the search for a single, optimal institutional design for conservation and ask whether different arrangements are perhaps appropriate for different setting.
This applies also to common pool resources such as fish stocks and the aim of the workshop is to explore conditions for success of some management approaches compared to other approaches. Are the conditions necessary or sufficient? Can the conditions be ranked? What are the consequences of failure of meeting some for the conditions?
Participation:
The workshop is free of charge of anyone wishing to participate. A limit of 25 persons has been set and priority will be given the persons presenting a paper. Any one interested in presenting a paper should notify before 24th August 2001.
Deadline for enrolment is 24th August 2001
