Establishing Solomon Islands’ National CBRM Partners Network

Institutional networks for coordinating CBRM have been through different iterations in Solomon Islands. However, all intended to create a platform for information sharing and exchanging lessons learned, while creating a communication link between stakeholders working in the coastal fisheries field in Solomon Islands. The newly established National CBRM Partners Network brings in old and new partners, and now has a strong foundation in the CBRM scaling strategy, which as a government document helps ensure ongoing support and commitment. The establishment of resource management networks in Solomon Islands is a gradual process that requires thorough planning and collaboration among various stakeholders. Efforts to strengthen such networks requires time to foster trusted relationships and depends on effective communication and coordination systems between communities, government ministries, partners and stakeholders.
