Dr. Elizabeth North "OysterFutures: a process for consensus"
After decades of conflict over the oyster in Maryland, stakeholders in the oyster resource came to consensus through the science-based, facilitated Consensus Solutions process which was tested in the OysterFutures research program. This talk summarizes the process, the science, and the stakeholders’ efforts that led to their sweeping and meaningful package of recommendations for oyster management in the Choptank region.
