Guide Resource: Example Action Plan for Buffers
GUIDE RESOURCE: This action plan, which emerged through user engagement around the Great Bay Estuary, provides an example of how planning early for end-of-project transitions can successfully fuel future projects with partners.
Case Study |
Case study: Values-based communications
GUIDE CASE STUDY: Understanding beliefs, perceptions, and values of end users increases the potential for reserve-based science to make the greatest impact on surrounding communities. A project led by the Wells Reserve used communication audit and mental mapping techniques to understand the collective beliefs about riparian buffers among reserve staff, their partners and stakeholders. Based on this research, they identified which communication and engagement strategies should be collectively prioritized.

Case study: Including community leaders on the team
GUIDE CASE STUDY: To be effective, collaborative project teams must include the right skill sets, but it’s also important to include team members who have established relationships with or access to your project’s intended users.
