Preface Excerpt One of the major ways to reduce pressure on a declining fishery is through effort controls, which often have both positive and negative effects on the people whose livelihoods depend on the fishery. This study focuses on artisanal Ghanaian fishers in an urbanized and developed area like Tema, examining their willingness to exit a declining fishery and identifying alternative livelihood options. The findings emphasize the significance of addressing "generations in fishing" and promoting alternative livelihoods to achieve sustainable solutions. The study recommends government support and targeted policies to break the cycle of intergenerational fishing dependence.
