Abstract
  • There is growing realization of the potential for games and experiments as powerful tools not only for research, but also for education and outreach. Experiments are particularly powerful and useful for fisheries economists because (a) they can vividly illustrate some fundamental concepts and (b) are effective at testing the relative merits of various fishery management proposals. Fisheries economists have developed a wide variety of games and experiments for a wide variety of applications. However, many fisheries economists are unfamiliar with games and experiments and their potential applications. This two-part special session has a pair of complementary objectives: (a) to demonstrate a range of games and experiments to IIFET members who are unfamiliar with these methods so they can understand their potential for education, outreach and research; and (b) to provide an opportunity for existing developers and users of games and experiments to share new ideas for applications in fisheries.
