Pandemic overfishing to critical levels currently threatens the persistence of sea cucumber fisheries and the important role they play in the livelihoods of coastal fishers. Resource managers must embrace an ecosystem approach to fisheries, in which biodiversity conservation, ecosystem services and the concerns of stakeholders are taken into account together with the economic gains from fishing. This document provides a ""road map"" for developing and implementing better management of sea cucumber fisheries.
