Supplement - Belmont Forum Collaborative Research: Negotiating Ocean Conflicts among RIvals for Sustainable and Equitable Solutions

We will use a mixed method approach together with a cross-case comparison applied to six case studies. We will study the origin, drivers, and mitigation of ocean conflicts. Each case represents a hot spot where a different combination of social and ecological pressures together with trade-off decisions, trigger and intensify ocean conflicts. A core set of methods is developed and applied in all case studies through workshops with focus groups, ensuring comparability across locations to facilitate global learning.
