  • Multidimensional human wellbeing in periodic octopus closures in Zanzibar

    Open AccessElizabeth Drury O’neill, Tim M Daw et al.ARTICLEEcosystems and People2024

    Our study of periodic octopus closures helps to fill an empirical gap in community-based marine protected area (MPA) research on socially-diverse multidimensional wellbeing impacts. Human wellbeing provides a more meaningful and holistic measure of social impacts than previous economic measures while recognising equity- evidence that ultimately ensures support and enables long-term success in conservation. We trace the flow of benefits, costs and…

  • The complexity of compliance—Diverse responses to octopus fishery closures in Zanzibar

    Open AccessElizabeth Drury O’neill, Tim Daw et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2024

    Marine protected areas like periodic closures are increasingly used to improve both fisheries management and biodiversity conservation, and often secondarily, human well‐being.

Although compliance scholarship today is expanding beyond non‐economic explanations of (non)‐compliance…

We use empirical data from an ethnographic study in the village of Mamba, in northern Tanzania (2006-2009). This study analyzes the question of changing gender relations and the patriarchal constraints to collective action under market liberalization of cash crops. Our findings demonstrate that the shift to a market economy has influ…
