The OECD Committee for Fisheries (COFI) hosted an international workshop entitled “The Economics of Adapting Fisheries to Climate Change” on 10-11 June, 2010 in Busan, Korea to address challenges and provide insights to policy makers. Adaptation to climate change was the primary focus of this Workshop in order to allow for a fulsome discussion on this topic. The Workshop was designed to provide guidance to fisheries policy makers in terms of when to implement policy changes or develop new policies or approaches to adapt to climate change impacts. Furthermore, it was conceived to allow for an examination of the “tools” in the fisheries manager’s “toolbox” in terms of their suitability in the face of climate change, as well as to develop an understanding of the economic, social and environmental information that can underpin decisions on climate change adaptation.
