  2. Dialogue Stakeholders Scientists Participation Transparency, openness, quality, credibility Public awareness and opinion ‘Expert’ Knowledge Policy and Governance What is the GAP vision?

  3. What will GAP-1 do? • Initiate & build working collaborations • Develop shared understanding • Prepare hypothesis driven case-studies • Plan participatory research activities Good practice in stakeholder participation Research proposal (s)

  4. Crab migration & biology • Why do crabs move to deep water in winter? • Reproduction size & ratio • MSC certification

  5. Tuna, FADs & selectivity • ‘Victims’ of the precautionary approach • Re-define long-standing working relationships

  6. Habitats in coastal ecosystems • Benthic habitats, distribution & fishing grounds • Integrating fishers & scientific knowledge of coastal resources

  7. Learning about Learning • Common threads to improving collaborative research • Scientific issues • Social context of the science • Management and governance implications

  8. GAP and NSRAC • RACs experience – e.g. good practice • Research ideas • Support & facilitate the approach and activities e.g. with other RACs • GAP supporting aims of the RACs e.g. LTMPs

  9. Getting the message out
