Abstracts

Knowledge co-production aimed at collaboration between diverse actors to address complex issues has the potential to achieve positive socio-environmental outcomes. In partnership with the 501c3 organization, La Fuerza del Buzo (The Strength of the Diver), I 1) created a Gantt Chart to guide the organization’s future direction of strategic planning, 2) created a white paper on using knowledge co-production for the organization’s community-based program development guide organization operations, and 3) developed Individual Story maps for use on La Fuerza del Buzo’s website to showcase individual stakeholders’ stories and co-identified needs. Knowledge co-production processes including findings elicited from interviews with marine stakeholders between November-December 2021 were used to develop each of these final products and presented to the organization to aid in La Fuerza del Buzo’s program development.
