"During October and November, 2014 socioeconomic resident surveys were conducted in three villages on Tutuila Island, American Samoa.

This report represents a summary of data collected in the villages of Vatia, Aunuu, and Faga'alu, which are all priority management sites in American Samoa. It can be used to inform site-specific management strategies in each of these villages. We anticipate that this information will feed into future management planning, resilience assessments, and can be used to track changes in social indicators over time in each of the villages. The survey results and format will inform planned socioeconomic assessments in additional priority management sites in American Samoa (such as additional Community-based Fisheries Management Program villages or villages affiliated with the National Marine Sanctuary), so that information can be compared across locations and across the different types of management programs being implemented in the territory. The research was supported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations Coral Reef Conservation Program (NOAA CRCP), conducted through San Diego State University, in collaboration with local natural resource agencies."
