  • The Global Ocean Grab: a Primer
    The Global Ocean Grab A primer Acknowledgements Carsten Pedersen, Masifundise Timothé Feodoroff, Transnational Institute Ricarda Reuter, Afrika Kontakt Jennifer Franco, Transnational Institute Nick Buxton, Transnational Institute Mads Christian Barbesgaard, Afrika Kontakt Pietje Vervest, Transnational Institute Design and Layout Ricardo Santos If you have suggestions, comments or other questions you want answered in any future editions, please email [email protected] TNI Agrarian Justice Programme, Masifundise and Afrika Kontakt September 2014 What is ocean grabbing? The term ‘ocean grabbing’ aims to cast new light on important processes and dynamics that are negatively affecting the people and communities whose way of life, cultural identity and livelihoods depend on their involvement in small-scale fishing and closely related activities. Small-scale fishers and fishing communities in both the Global South and the Global North are increasingly threatened and confronted by powerful forces that are dramatically reshaping existing access rights regimes and production models in fisheries. This process is leading not only to the dwindling of control by small-scale fishers over these resources, but also in many cases to their ecological destruction and very disappearance. Today we are witnessing a major process of enclosure of the world’s oceans and fisheries resources, including marine, coastal and inland fisheries. Ocean grabbing is occurring mainly through policies, laws, and practices that are (re) defining and (re)allocating access, use and control of fisheries resources away from small-scale fishers and their communities, and often with little concern for the adverse environmental consequences. Existing customary and communal fisheries’ tenure rights systems and use and management practices are being ignored and ultimately lost in the process.
