Coastal fisheries in Germany are undergoing significant structural changes. Key challenges include the declining productivity of commercially important fish and shellfish stocks, the loss of traditional fishing grounds, a dwindling interest of the younger generation to become fishers, high fuel prices, and an aging fishing fleet. In this context, a workshop was convened to develop a future vision for German coastal fisheries. This study builds upon the findings of the “Future Workshop Coastal Fisheries 2024,” where nine core elements were discussed by participants: diversification strategies for fishers, fishers’ training, technological advancements, fisheries management, fleet capacity, recreational fisheries, aquaculture, marine protected areas, and offshore wind farms. Our interdisciplinary team of authors described these elements in light of current knowledge, critically examined their implications, and explored potential implementation strategies. Three perspectives were then identified: the resource user perspective, the marine resource management perspective, and the spatial dimension. Our findings underline the necessity of an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approach of integrating fisheries into a multi-use concept of marine space in the future. This research contributes to the fields’ future research, while offering foundational knowledge about the present state of research on specific aspects of German fisheries. This study also provides valuable insights for policymakers, practitioners, and stakeholders in other EU countries undergoing fisheries transformations.
