Managing for Diversity: keeping everyone afloat in Irish fisheries (animation, 6:47, 2020)

<p><em>Managing for Diversity: keeping everyone afloat in Irish fisheries (6:47, 2020)</em> is a short animation about the diversity of Ireland&#39;s fishing industry, with a focus on the offshore islands small-scale fleet. Almost three thousand islanders live on eighteen islands off the west coast of Ireland. These islands are not connected to the mainland by a land causeway. While many of these islands are dependent on a small-scale fishing industry for survival, their fishing communities face challenges in navigating complex fisheries governance systems at local, regional, national and EU scales. This animation is intended to provide a snapshot of the complexity of the issues at play and the difficulties for small-scale boats in accessing the fish that are a public resource. Written and based on research by Dr Ruth Brennan; Design and animation by Michael (Mysh) Rozanov; Sound design and music by Br&iacute;an Mac Gloinn.
