Responding to COVID-19 - Australian fisheries and aquaculture key stakeholder interview data 2022-23

The resource contains summary data from 30 interviews undertaken of key stakeholders in Australia's fisheries and aquaculture sectors in 2022-23. Participants included officers in management agencies, sector representative bodies, research agencies as well as operators of small and large seafood firms involved in production and/or post-harvest or retailing of Australian-produced seafood. Participants are not identified. Interview topics covered the experiences of those interviewed on the COVID-19 pandemic and the disruptions it caused their sectors of Australia's fisheries and aquaculture, as well as their observations of what are barriers and enablers of better preparedness to future disruptions. Topics included: Types of disruptions experienced (B); Responses (C); and Barriers and enablers to better future preparedness. The interview data was summarised using Microsoft Co-pilot using prompts to summarise responses to an individual question. The research was undertaken under University of Tasmania’s Human Research Ethics Committee approval (ref. H27649).

Statement
Data were collected using key informant interview method. This method collects qualitative data on key informant knowledge, attitudes and beliefs. The interview format used was semi-structured, whereby interviewees were asked the same open-ended questions but the format of the answers varied between interviewees. Key informants were identified and invited to interview based on their public role and subject matter expertise. Participation was voluntary. Interview data was captured by audio file and transcript as well as written notes. Data was written up into an interview data sheet. Data was summarised using Microsoft Co-pilot. Full details of the overall research project methodology are available in the final report, which can be accessed here: https://www.frdc.com.au/project/2021-042.
