Abstract EN
An ecosystem-based management research partnership between the Hawai‘i Institute of Marine Biology and Office of National Marine Sanctuaries, specifically with the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Coral Reef Ecosystem Reserve and, later, the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument, provides a case study to analyze integration of scientific research into management plans through collaborative communications.
Ecosystem-based management seeks input from disparate stakeholders and requires effective communication systems for the public, science, and management partners that bypass differences in organizational culture and communication styles.
Here, we examine a successful partnership within the framework of ecosystem-based management to survey and evaluate cultural differences, understand what facilitates collaborative communication, highlight factors that impede a successful partnership, and identify areas for improvement.
Effective communication has been achieved through an analysis of the organizations cultures and structures to better define communication links.
Although specific differences were noted in organization and style, successful integration was accomplished through techniques such as the development of symposia and semiannual reports.
This paper will explore the organizational culture analysis and structure evaluation, which are components of a larger study.
This science management integration project is an example of how organizational analysis can lead to recommendations for improved communication and integration of science and management.
