Abstract The severe decline in stocks and the extent of the migratory range of Atlantic salmon have forced countries in the North Atlantic to work together to coordinate management on an international level. In 1982 the affected countries formed the North Atlantic Salmon Conservation Organization (NASCO) as part of an international convention for the restoration and conservation of the Atlantic salmon. This article examines the structure and function of NASCO, evaluates its performance to date, identifies areas that need improvement, and makes specific recommendations. The author presents the active consensus model as one possible improvement. She sees NASCO's need to develop a mechanism to equitably distribute the benefits and burdens associated with adoption of conservation measures as an opportunity for NASCO to increase the responsiveness of its decisionmaking process.
