General Introduction
The 2009 OECD Ministerial Council Meeting adopted a Green Growth Declaration, giving OECD a mandate to develop a Green Growth strategy to bring together economic, environmental, social, technological and development aspects into a comprehensive framework. It has been long recognised that without sustainable management of natural resources the future of fisheries is bleak. Within the fisheries sector, the Green Growth paradigm offers potentially important new insights and a renewed policy framework to ensure that additional issues are addressed at a much wider level, notably by including the social and development aspects.
