Resource-protection policies are frequently implemented without
prior knowledge of the likely social and economic outcomes. The
consequences of these management strategies can, however, severely
erode the ability of resource-users to cope and prosper. The
conflict, political turmoil and lack of compliance that are often
associated with changes in resource policies can seriously
undermine conservation goals. Design of policies that are capable
of achieving both conservation goals and social and economic
sustainability require a better understanding of how resource-users
respond to policy change and adapt. This study aims to improve our
understanding of how the commercial fishing industry in North
Queensland might be resilient to policy change. It shows that to
successfully navigate through policy-change transitions,
resource-users require flexibility (or low resource dependency) and
a positive perception of policy change. The study develops a method
to measure these qualities, thus giving resource managers and
researchers the ability to assess social resilience prior to the
implementation of conservation initiatives. This knowledge can
underpin progressive management approaches aimed at more effective
and equitable resource protection and to better position resource
managers to meet the challenge of managing for resilient
socio-ecological systems.
