FishCom/FishTech Survey - "Survey on Attitudes and Views Among Norwegian Fishermen", 2019

Data from a survey of Norwegian fishermen. We hope to gain a better understanding of the fishermen's perception of the situation in fisheries in Norway today, their views on resource control, new technologies and fishermen's attitudes to uncertainty.

The aim of FishTech is to assess whether, and in which way, new technologies may be used to best strengthen fisheries management. To achieve this objective, we will:
a) obtain a better understanding of what determines short- and long-term compliance and harvesting decisions and how this is affected by new technologies,
b) study the interactions between regulatory legitimacy, new ways of monitoring, and compliance,
c) analyze the effect of new technologies on effective resource control and improved value creation.
