Although stakeholder engagement is a founding principle of marine spatial planning, there is a lack of meaningful representation of people and their connections to marine resources in marine governance. This article uses case studies to explore how concepts of social capital and capacity are operationalised in MSP and other ocean governance initiatives. The findings suggest the need for a rethinking of capacitation as a two-way process, emphasizing trust-building, social learning, and efforts to build social capacity without imposing hierarchy. The innovative approaches highlighted in the case studies provide insights on how to foster social capacity for more equitable and sustainable MSP development and implementation.
Although stakeholder engagement is one of the founding principles of marine spatial planning (MSP), meaningful representation of people and their connections to marine resources within marine governance is still lacking. A broad understanding of how concepts surrounding social capital and capacity is translated into MSP practice is missing. With this article, we describe detailed case studies in the United Kingdom, Brazil and South Africa to build a better understanding of the ways in which MSP and other ocean governance initiatives operationalise the concepts of social capital and capacity. Drawing on insights from the cases, we call for a rethinking of capacitation as a two-way process. In particular, trust-building, social learning and efforts to build social capacity should be elaborated without imposing a hierarchy between people 'who know' and people 'who don't'. Innovative approaches to relationship building, knowledge development, and collaboration highlighted in the case studies highlight ways to build social capacity both among stakeholders and planners, as is necessary for more equitable and sustainable MSP development and implementation.
