General answer#
To assess stakeholders’ satisfaction in an MSP/MPA process, it is essential to evaluate communication effectiveness, ensuring it is adapted to different stakeholder types and whether expectations were clearly set and met throughout the process. This can be achieved through surveys, interviews, or participatory workshops that gauge stakeholders’ perceptions of transparency, trust, and inclusiveness in decision-making. Additionally, analysing the extent of their early involvement, the adequacy of time and resources allocated for engagement, and the alignment of outcomes with their interests can provide valuable insights. Ensuring government commitment and legitimacy of the process should also be a key assessment criterion.
