Prof Natasha Stacey is a marine social scientist and the leader of RIEL’s Communities and Livelihoods Group at Charles Darwin University.

In the seminar ‘Behavioural drivers of Indonesian transboundary fishing in Australian waters’, Natasha will share the results of a collaborative Australian-Indonesian research study on the drivers of high levels of illegal Indonesian transboundary fishing in northern Australian waters since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The research team used a conceptual framework of non-compliance to capture a dynamic interplay of behavioural drivers appearing to facilitate the recent spike in illegal Indonesian fishing activity. Natasha will discuss the risks, decision-making and impacts of apprehensions on fishers and their families as well as the potential options for supporting long-term solutions for community livelihoods.

Natasha holds a PhD in Anthropology and has three decades of experience in coastal and livelihoods research and development projects across the Asia-Pacific region and northern Australia. Her areas of expertise include small-scale and transboundary Indonesian fisheries, Indigenous and rural coastal livelihood enhancement, gender studies and food security.
