En: Ambio Springer, 1972-, Vol. 54 (2025), pp. 20-42.Resumen: Many small-scale fisheries (SSFs) in Latin
America and the Caribbean (LAC) operate in ecologically
sensitive areas, where balancing conservation and resource
use is challenging. ’Multiple-use’ marine protected areas
(MPAs) have been implemented to accommodate SSFs
(among other uses) within areas designated for conservation,
creating opportunities and challenges for SSF governance.
We analyzed eleven case studies from LAC to explore: (1)
how different MPA institutional designs affect key aspects
of SSF governance and (2) the links between these effects
and the type of initiative that promoted MPA establishment
(origin). Results indicate that the existence of an MPA
benefited SSF governance in many ways, with more
pronounced positive effects in MPAs with mixed to
bottom-up origin supported by well-organized fishing
groups. In addition, the presence of supportive MPA
authorities that leveraged local capacities and initiatives
and adopted flexible and collaborative governance systems
made a difference in several cases. Lessons for integrating
MPA and SSF governance are drawn.
