Description
Summary:First and foremost I would like to thank the Almighty God for making my academic aspirations and accomplishments a reality. Then my sincere and utmost gratitude goes to my supervisor Ass. Prof Arne Aide for his invaluable support and patient guidance during the course of this thesis. I am highly indebted to NORAD for offering me the scholarship to pursue MSc at this esteemed college, and to the Centre for Environment and Development Studies (SEMUT) for its financial support to undertake the fieldwork. In deed, I have benefited a lot from the program to transfer knowledge to home country. I would also like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the program co-ordinators (Anne-Marie Hektoen, Arne Eide and Jorge Santos) due to whom our stay was both academically and socially successful. I dearly thank my family for their never-ending love and moral support. Special gratitude goes to the Fisheries Division officials of the Tanzanian Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism for their permission to carry out the study, and to Yahya Mgawe for his kind assistance during the data collection. Paul, you took your time reading manuscript of this paper that is worth mentioning. Last but not least, I thank all my NFH classmates, UiTØ friends and all Eritrean and Norwegian folks who have been part of my stay in Tromsø, it was a pleasure and experience to have acquainted with you all.
