GUIDE CASE STUDY: Collaborative science projects are designed to inform and catalyze action, but often those impacts do not develop until after a grant ends. Two project teams working with New England reserves found different ways to support the work of their partners after their grants ended.

GUIDE CASE STUDY: Collaboration with diverse team members and stakeholders can sometimes result in disagreements or contention, as was the experience of the New England Climate Adaptation Project, a regional initiative involving the four New England reserves.
GUIDE CASE STUDY: A logic model can clearly and concisely communicate your project’s goals, objectives, resources, and outcomes to the larger team and your stakeholders. The Our Coast, Our Future project team developed a logic model so that the stakeholders they had engaged in the process could see how the project fit into the complex and dynamic coastal management situation in California.
