The depletion of marine resources and recession in worldwide economy result in impacts on the livelihood and development of many small island countries. Therefore, the community-based coastal resources management (CBCRM) approach has become an important strategy for the sustainable development of marine resources.
This thesis reports the studies with regard to the CBCRM in Hujing Island, most importantly, the promotion of aquaculture development into the small island such as the culture of sea-grape (algae Caulerpa). The work was initiated to investigate the relationships between communities and marine resources in Hujing Island under a CBCRM¡¦s ¡§four pillars¡¨ framework. Qualitative methods through participant observation, interviews, and documentary analysis were used for data collection. The results have been summarized according to the framework of "four pillars".
1. In comparison with decades ago, marine resources are depleted and are inadequate to support sustainable development. Population of the community also lost, so it is not possible to develop a new fishery.
2. In terms of technology, the culture of Caulerpa can be successfully established in Hujing Island as well as in other islands in Penghu.
3. The CBCRM approach needs to build up the capacity on aquaculture technology through organizing of local communities.
4. Institutional arrangements of the culture of Caulerpa could follow those used in fishery of Beach Seine.
