This deliverable also provides a background on how Multi-Actor Platforms function as science-society-policy interfaces, and on what is the practical experience with such structures, including from other current or previous EU-projects.

These changes are often introduced into the fishery in a top 16 down manner whereby fishermen are forced to comply with specific legislation. However, fishermen 17 have also introduced gear modifications that have contributed to improving species selectivity in trawls. 18 One of the simplest and most effective modifications that came from industry was the development and 19 introduction of twin and multi-rig trawls. Here we analyse catch rates of four target species, Norway 20 lobster (Nephrops norvegicus), cod (Gadus morhua), plaice (Pleuronectes platessa) and haddock 21 (Melanogrammus aeglefinus), to try and understand how the above mentioned change in gear design has 22 altered catch rates within the Danish demersal trawl fishery ...

Incorporating expert knowledge and the perspectives of different sea users and interests' groups through stakeholder involvement (SI) processes is a central element in the design and implementation of marine spatial plans (MSPs). This handbook explores some of the key issues relating to SI in MSP, including: How to think about involving stakeholders? How to understand their needs? Who to involve? When is the appropriate time to involve them? What methods and tools are needed? What are the drawbacks? And how can a process leader carry an effective, transparent and fair process? This handbook provides practitioners with some practical answers to these questions by offering a framework for thinking systematically about SI in the MSP process. The ideas and approaches to SI outlined are based on firsthand experiences from planners in the Baltic Sea Region and cover the whole of the MSP policy cycle.
