TL;DR: It is found that some supply chains, market segments, companies, small-scale actors and civil society have shown initial signs of greater resilience than others, and strategic research needs to support learning from COVID-19 impacts and responses are needed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the challenges Brazil's first open-water marine extractive reserve (MER) is facing in trying to achieve these goals and found that significant social barriers to collective action exist and that local resource governing institutions are not robust.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine the more recent entry of seafood into consumer social movements, and offer suggestions on how fisheries management could better govern for sustainable food systems, and provide further ideas about food, sustainability and governance.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the utility of considering vulnerability in the assessment of potential impacts from fisheries management measures and discuss how a consideration of vulnerability can inform managers by presenting results from recent empirical work related to marine fisheries.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore emerging collaborative or co-management arrangements in this region (a process whereby decision-making is shared between federal/council level and fishery stakeholder groups) and the shift towards an ecosystem-based approach to the management of marine fisheries and suggest that it is an opportune time for the development of a regional policy in the Northeast that provides an enabling environment in support of decentralized governance of federally managed marine fisheries.
