Planning a collaborative research project can be challenging -- it requires integrating researchers and the intended users of the science in a collaborative process that is unlike most traditional research approaches.

Join us for a panel discussion webinar highlighting the collective advice of three panelists who have helped design and manage collaborative science projects addressing a range of coastal management issues. This webinar will help participants understand the key factors to consider in designing collaborative research projects.

The panel discussion will explore lessons learned about: Conceptualizing research to ensure it addresses natural resource management needs; and designing a collaborative research process to ensure that it succeeds.
