This guide looks at how negotiation and consensus building can be used to manage conflict and build collaboration. The guide provides practical, step-by-step advice on working with many different stakeholders to reach mutually satisfactory agreements in collaborative natural resources management. As such, it is concerned with people’s livelihoods – their means of living, and the influences that affect the ways in which they live and work. It is also concerned with sustainability – balancing conservation and development to meet the needs of women and men, now and in the future.
