"This paper presents the experiences learned from emergence and active involvement of the institutions of collective action in fisheries resource management in a reservoir in Central India. The institutions of collective action discussed here are represented by the fishing cooperative societies--a village level primary institution of rural people displaced due to construction of dam on river and their federation. We trace the roots of the emergence of these institutions and their progressive evolution into an effective mechanism of co-management of fisheries resources. The study focuses on the impact of these institutions on resources sustainability and equitable distribution. The study assesses how this system of co-management had impacted upon the orientation and actions of fisherfolks towards sustainable utilization of fisheries resources and led to a sustainable source of livelihoods for local people. An attempt has also been made to identify and discuss the factors contributing towards success of this arrangement and then fall of this system. Finally, the paper concludes by summarizing key lessons emerging from the study and their relevance and implications for designing and implementation of institutional and policy interventions for fishery resource conservation and management in other parts of the country." |
