Fishermen such as Trygve Skogheim have typically been left out of policy discussions on fish stock management. The GAP2 project is hoping to reverse this. Credit: Karoline Pettersen
The GAP2 project has written a handbook about their collaboration efforts so that any research field - not only fishermen and scientists like anthropologist Duarte Fernandez and Galician octopus fisher Manual Parada - could also benefit from their work. Credit: Manuel Lemos
