This evidence review aims to provide robust and relevant evidence related to the question:
What are the links between poverty alleviation and nature-based solutions, including sustainable aquaculture, small scale fisheries and marine habitat protection, sustainable management and restoration?
It provides a critical appraisal of evidence, or the lack thereof, to guide future research around three sub-questions:
- What is the evidence on the links between sustainable aquaculture/small-scale fisheries/marine habitat protection, sustainable management and restoration and poverty alleviation? How is poverty alleviated through such nature-based solutions?
- What is the evidence on the factors and strategies that contribute to simultaneously promoting sustainable aquaculture/ small-scale fisheries/ marine habitat marine habitat protection, sustainable management and restoration, gender equality and social inclusion, and poverty alleviation?
- What is the evidence for how a participatory, innovation-based process of designing, testing and adapting novel and/or alternative technologies for sustainable aquaculture/ smallscale fisheries/ marine habitat protection, sustainable management and restoration can help to achieve poverty alleviation?
