Refinement and anaylsis of coastal fishery problems facing Makefu and Alofi North villages, Niue, with associated recommendations / by Sione Leolahi

Sustainable costal fisheries are the prime focal area for Niue IWP, and are being addressed through a pilot project in the adjacent villages of Alofi North and Makefu, on the island's west coast. Along with other villages, these two identified the problems associated with their use of the coastal fishery and the results were published in a report "Participatory Situation Analysis: Summary Report of Village Consultations in Niue " (Niue IWP 2003). As with other Pacific Islands. Niue’s people feel their coastal waters are not as productive as they were in former years.
