“…While this approach was informed by consultation with the target audience prior to the release of the survey, it may have resulted in attracting only respondents who are motivated by material incentives rather than altruistic reasons. The study aimed to gain responses nation-wide from marine users with diverse interests in science, especially people in the lower EiS groups who are a notoriously difficult group to study (Cormick, 2013;Evans & Plows, 2007;Powell, Colin, Lee Kleinman, Delborne, & Anderson, 2010;Stevenson, Sikich, & Gold, 2012). Although these groups are likely to be underrepresented in this research, there is enough variation in the results to at least shed some light on engagement with this group, and the use of incentives helped to achieve these responses.…”

Citizen science is often assumed to increase public science engagement; however, little is known about who is likely to volunteer and the implications for greater societal impact. This study segments 1,145 potential volunteers into six groups according to their current engagement in science (EiS). Results show groups with high levels of EiS are significantly more interested in volunteering and more likely to participate in various research roles than those with lower EiS scores. While citizen science benefits some in science and society, its use as a strategy to bring about positive shifts in public science engagement needs to be reconsidered.

“…Available literature reveals that well-designed MPAs have been shown globally to increase the abundance and diversity of organisms inside as well as outside their boundaries as noted by Stevenson & Gold, 2012) and appears to be true in Agojo, San Andres, Cataduanes (see Vargas & Asetre, 2011). Anecdotal reports and one-on-one interrogation of the newly re-organized mangrove association reveal the increase in population density of rabbit fishes (Siganidae) and other sea grass dwelling fishes.…”

“…SIN or the involvement in the development of MPA performance indicators are also increasing such as that of Dahl-Tacconi (2005), Vasconcelos (2011), Dalton, Forrester, & Pollnac (2012) and Heck, Dearden, & McDonald (2012). More recent papers on the stakeholder inputs come from the works of Stevenson, Sikich, & Gold (2012), Smith (2012), Allegretti, Vaske, & Cottrell (2012) and Jentoft et al (2012).…”

“…Relatedly, experience in the implementation of ecosystem-based management (EBM) has shown to be most successful when a great diversity of stakeholders is engaged early in a process, as opposed to a more top-down decision making process (Stevenson, Sikich, & Gold 2012). In the case of the present enforcement of Kalapadan MPA, earlier stage followed the top-down decision making process and later on moved into the bottom-up process in decisions by fostering meaningful participation, engaging early and establishing clear objectives.…”

This paper presents an early stakeholder involvement plan using SID-SIN-SEN scheme [Stakeholder Identification (SID) -Stakeholder Inputs (SIN)-Stakeholder Engagement (SEN)-]for planning and implementation of marine protected areas (MPA) in the typhoon-prone island province of Catanduanes Island, Bicol Region (Luzon) in the Philippines. An early engagement plan is presented for (1) Agojo Point Fish Sanctuary and Marine Reserve in San Andres as to stakeholder"s involvement and management; and (2) for preparing an enforcement plan of the MPA in Kalapadan Bay Area (KBA) of Baras town. This stakeholder involvement plan explored the importance of identifying the stakeholders, linking their inputs and engaging all major and minor stakeholders in the co-management process. The involvement plan developed from the devised scheme can help MPA managers and academic institutions in developing MPA management plans and monitoring stakeholder interactions in marine space protection of the island province and possibly other locations by using stakeholder theory and stakeholder analysis.

“…All the other stakeholder classes (n = 13) were below 8% (Figure 3). The number of interviews held in each study showed strong heterogeneity, ranging from a minimum of 10 in Camacho and Steneck (2017) [63] to a maximum of 3030 in Stevenson et al (2012) [64] (Figure 4), with an average of 292 interviews.…”

Avoiding “Paper Parks”: A Global Literature Review on Socioeconomic Factors Underpinning the Effectiveness of Marine Protected Areas

et al. 2023

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are a common management tool for preserving marine biodiversity and halting resource depletion. Despite the number of MPAs rapidly increasing worldwide, there are concerns over the full achievement of their objectives. Indeed, in some cases—the phenomenon of so-called “paper parks”—protected areas totally fail to achieve their conservation and socioeconomic targets. Therefore, identifying the factors underpinning MPA success or failure is crucial to increase their effectiveness. To achieve this goal, we performed a global literature review on the socioeconomic factors that managers should pursue to enhance MPA effectiveness on a global scale. A search of the Scopus database, using strings of keywords connected by Boolean operators, generated a batch of 715 items, out of which 68 were retained after the application of inclusion/exclusion criteria. Six other articles were added through the scanning of the literature cited in selected papers. We grouped MPA success-factors into 13 main groups and ranked them according to the frequency of citation in the literature. Our findings identify stakeholder involvement, increasing communication and awareness between specific stakeholder groups, as well as ensuring appropriate enforcement and monitoring, control and surveillance, as the leading factors for MPA success. Our results will assist in the process of upcoming global expansion of MPAs, thus contributing to improving conservation of marine biodiversity and associated livelihoods.
