Understanding Factors That Influence Stakeholder Trust of Natural Resource Science and Institutions

Abstract: Building trust between resource users and natural resource institutions is essential when creating conservation policies that rely on stakeholders to be effective. Trust can enable the public and agencies to engage in cooperative behaviors toward shared goals and address shared problems.

“…Thus, in order to improve the environmental management, it is vital to work on enhancing the trust and cooperation relations among the various stakeholders involved in this process. Nevertheless, this article recommends these various stakeholders to keeps in mind what some scholar argues that trust is slow to grow and easy to break (Beratan 2007;Gray et al 2012). This research doesn't claim that trust and cooperation relationships are the only reason behind lack of environmental management process in Lebanon; nor does it argue that trust is the only reason that boosts cooperation.…”

“…Strong ties are particularly relevant in common-pool resource systems because common-pool resources can be augmented or depleted by the level of harvesting, harvesting is often rivalrous, and the ability to exclude outsiders is typically limited (Grafton 2005). Therefore trust, cooperation, and reciprocity, often enriched by strong bonding networks, can be vital in encouraging individuals to observe standards, rules, and sustainable practices, thus decreasing externalities for individual resource users (Grafton 2005, Gray et al 2012b). …”

“…Shared learning also helps participants search for common values, which can decrease conflict while Table 1 Survey responses by stakeholder affiliation, including the number and proportion of individuals who are members of more than one team and total number of responses per stakeholder group, and survey responses by Take Reduction Team, includes responses by individuals on more than one team. building trust and social capital among team members, and between participants and government institutions [24,32]. Through shared learning, participatory processes can end stalemates and decrease hostility; increase knowledge and understanding of environmental issues and opposing viewpoints; generate creative, new options; and create beneficial second-order effects such as new partnerships and new institutions [9,[24][25][26]31,37,38].…”
