This document is the result of a study on the state of nearshore marine management in the Main Hawaiian Islands (MHI). The study was commissioned by the Hawai‘i Community Foundation (HCF) to help the foundation develop its grant-making program for nearshore marine resources in the MHI. The study has drawn its conclusions from a review of relevant literature and the opinions of experts on Hawai‘i’s marine resources. Interviews have been the primary source, and the study does its best to reflect the recurring themes and shared views discovered during the process. This study is not meant to be definitive but rather a summary of expert opinion of how to strengthen nearshore marine management in Hawai‘i.
