Conclusion: The Innovation Evaluation Framework

  • First Online:
Comparative Evaluations of Innovative Fisheries Management

Abstract

This chapter constitutes the report of the Innovation Evaluation Framework. It includes a reflection on the indicators of innovations and management performance used in the CEVIS project in terms of their conceptual definitions, operational definitions, and proxies indicators. These reflections are based on how these operational definitions actually were measured when making the comparisons to test hypotheses. The substantive content of the IEF is then summarized though a discussion of the CEVIS project’s main conclusions. Finally, the chapter includes a discussion on the contribution of the project and its learning achievements.

Notes

  1. 1.

    A discussion of cross-, multi- and trans-disciplinary scientific cooperation is found in the introductory chapter. In our usage of the terms, multi-disciplinary means that scientists work on a common problem while remaining within their own discipline’s methods and ways of framing questions. Cross-disciplinary means that scientists from more than one discipline work together on the problem, but still remain within one of the discipline’s methods and frames. Trans-disciplinary means that common concepts and methods are developed that reflect the theories and methods of more than one discipline.

  2. 2.

    An argument defending the importance of economic efficiency can be found on the early pages of Chapter Eleven.

  3. 3.
