The social sciences are a valuable but often overlooked element of coastal zone management. Issues from marsh restoration to flood mitigation all involve critical human elements- knowledge, values, and attitudes-of the people that live, work, and play in these areas. This training provides the basic knowledge and skills to help coastal managers understand their stakeholders.
Session 1 - Understanding Stakeholders
Session 2 - Conducting Interviews
Session 3 - Writing Effective Survey Questions
