The first milestone in working with stakeholders in the DESIRE project has been delivered in the form of the WP3.1 publication: 'Report and synthesis on the 1st stakeholder workshop'. (DESIRE Scientific Report 47, deliverable 3.1.2).
 

The DESIRE WB3 methodology in working with local stakeholders in the DESIRE project, was developed by the Centre for Development and Environment (CDE), University of Bern, Switzerland and consists of three parts (organised in three different work packages):

 

• Part I: Stakeholder Workshop 1: Identification of existing and potential prevention and mitigation strategies (WP 3.1).

• Part II: Assessment of Conservation Strategies: Assessment and documentation of existing and potential prevention and mitigation strategies (WP 3.2).

• Part III: Stakeholder Workshop 2: Selection and decision on prevention and mitigation strategies to be implemented (WP 3.3).

This report that is issued now, is an analysis and synthesis of the results from the 1st stakeholder workshops (WP 3.1) conducted in the DESIRE study sites. Workshop moderators were provided a template for workshop reports and had to document the results from the single exercises and the final workshop evaluation. These workshop reports are the data basis for the analysis in this report.

The report can be downloaded from the WB3 pages in the download section, and is available for registered users.
