Project Details

Description

The core aim of the RESOCO is to build an interdisciplinary synthesis of up-to-date Nordic knowledge and best practices and set the stage for alternative solutions on how to effectively reconcile seal-fishery conflict in the Baltic Sea.

The overall objective of RESOCO is to propose pragmatic and regionally applicable measures which are acceptable to all key stakeholders involved in seal-fishery conflicts in the Baltic Sea. These measures include a mixture of technological tools and practices, management of seal populations, economic measures, and institutional and governance instruments.

The project applies a transdisciplinary approach, incorporating technological sciences, social sciences, economics, environmental psychology, and natural sciences. It supports participatory, coordinated and synergetic approaches for moving towards a more balanced situation in seal-fishery conflict.
