註釋There is a marked need to better understand the interconnectivity between poverty alleviation and environmental sustainability, since impoverished communities are often dependent upon their natural habitat to meet basic needs. Strategies to improve the livelihoods of the poor must consider the role of their natural environment. Although previous studies have recognised the challenges of integrating the dual goals of marine resource sustainability and poverty alleviation in coastal communities in South Africa, greater research is needed to assess the impacts of South African policies in achieving these objectives at a time when polices are being reviewed. The paper highlights this interconnectivity by assessing the challenges in South Africa to reduce poverty for coastal inhabitants, while simultaneously seeking sustainability of marine resources.
