Galapagos Artisan Fishermen | Low (1) | No long history in the area. Little collaboration regarding fishery yields and minimum landing size occurred prior to the establishment of the fishing cooperatives and Participatory Management Board mandated under the Galapagos Special Law. |
---|
"New Order" Indonesian Central Government (1965-1998) | High (3) | The members of the government of Indonesia worked very closely together during this period, although to be fair, it was probably largely due to central coordination as opposed to trust between members. |
---|
Ozone Nation States | Low (1) | |
---|
ICPR nations (1976-1986) | Medium (2) | A Salmon Commission had been created to control fishing efforts; there was also the precedent of navigation agreements; collaboration was not high, however, as the relatively failure of the Salmon commission shows; this can be related also to the relatively recent II world war. |
---|
Rhine agricultural sector | High (3) | The agricultural lobby at the European level is generally well known for its cohesiveness and effectiveness . |
---|
Indonesian "Adat" Communities | High (3) | Under Suharto, levels of collaboration within and between adat communities were restricted by the state's non-recognition and violent suppression of cultural difference and ethnic identity. Still, levels of collaboration within "adat communities" appear to have been high, and specially after Suharto, when there was a re-invigoration of indigenous self-organization throughout the country (see Davidson and Henley 2007). Levels of collaboration between communities has been increasing since the 1990s, and currently appear to be high as evidenced by the effective mobilization of the Dayak socio-ecological movement and the AMAN natioanl organization. See e.g. Alcorn et al. (2003), Li (2002) |

Large Extractive Industries in Indonesia | | Does this refer to inter or intra group? |
---|
Indonesian Local entrepreneurs | Low (1) | This is a group of people who have no definitive relationship with each other - consisting of small district level politicians and business people. |
---|
Indonesian District Governments | Low (1) | Although it is not clear if this refers to Inter or intra group, it doesn't matter, because past levels of collaboration were low, as prior to 1998, district governments were almost entirely unempowered. |
---|
"Reformasi" Indonesian Central Government (1998-2012) | Medium (2) | Different agencies of the central government have worked closely with each other in the past, and employees have worked closely between them within particular agencies. However, reviews of Indonesian forest governance have noted that agencies have shown "little effective coordination" in actions against illegal logging (Barr, 2001) and overall in the implementation of forest management and land allocation policies (Brockhaus et al. 2012). There have also been recurring conflicts between the central and the district authorities in the implementation of forest laws, including the concession system (e.g. McCarthy 2004, McLeod, 2005) and participatory forestry schemes (e.g. Nomura, . As described by McLeod (2005): "With Soeharto's demise, Indonesia gained democracy but lost effective government....This franchise (the Suharto government) has disintegrated, its various component parts now working at cross-purposes rather than in mutually reinforcing fashion." |
---|
Civil society organizations in Indonesia | Medium (2) | Lack of coordination between NGOs from different sectors has been noted as one of the weaknesses of these organizations, characterized as sectoral and fragmented (Antlove et al. 2005) At the same time, there are some incipient collaboration efforts between NGOs formalized in organizations at regional and national levels. At the national level there is YAPPIKA, a national NGO alliance for civil society and democracy. YAPPIKA "implemented a program starting in 2000 to assess the health of Indonesian civil society using the CIVICUS Index on Civil Society. The objectives of the assessment included increasing the knowledge and understanding of the status of civil society in Indonesia, empowering civil society stakeholders through dialog and networking, and providing civil society with tools to analyze sector-wide strengths and weaknesses, as well as to develop strategies to foster positive social change." (Antlove et al. 2005). Among other things, they have held participatory dialogues with more than 400 civil society organizations. At the regional level, there are examples such as the Consortium for the Development of Civil Society (KPMM), created in 2000 in West Sumatra by twelve NGOs to try to address the lack of accountability among civil society organizations in the province. To do so, KPMM developed a code of ethics and standard operational procedures for its membership organizations. However, as of 2005, three of the initial twelve NGOs had left the organization because they felt that the code of ethics was too strict. So, overall, we could say past collaboration was initially low but has been growing over the years. |

ICCAT Contracting Parties | High (3) | ICCAT was created in 1966, and began to undertake management activities for fisheries among member states in 1969. It has a long history of coordinating regulation of fisheries in the Atlantic Ocean and over time has regulated an increasing number of fisheries and added a number of additional contracting parties. |
---|
ICCAT Western Members | Medium (2) | The Canada, US and Japan interact frequently on global governance issues in organizations such as the G8 |
---|
ICCAT Eastern Members | Medium (2) | A large fraction of member states collaborate frequently on governance issues as part of the European Union. However, there are several states that receive quota such as Japan, Algeria, Morocco, Croatia, the Former Yugoslavia, Korea. Tunisia and Turkey that are not part of the EU and thus collaborate less frequently. |
---|
Ozone Depleting Substance Industrial Producers | High (3) | Past collaboration was lower and more collusive prior to the Montreal Protocol. It then declined as DuPont altered its position in favor of regulations unilaterally. Post-Protocol it became highly collaborative again. |

---|
Australian Toothfish Fishers | High (3) | Although the companies may compete for access to fishing grounds, they have worked together to obtain sustainability certification (through the MSC) and must continue to work together to maintain this certification. Further, they are members of COLTO and accordingly have worked, and continue to work together, to lobby for legal toothfish operators and to take action against illegal fishing (E.g., Osterblom and Sumaila 2011). |

GABMP (Commonwealth Waters) Director of National Parks | High (3) | The Director of National Parks and the senior executives are working under the same guidelines and for similar objectives. |
---|
GABMP (Commonwealth Waters) Commercial Fishers | High (3) | Collaboration across sectors are evident through membership in the CFA, which comprises voting membership covering 90% of Commonwealth fishery-specific industry Associations and whose membership represents over 95% of the Gross Value of Production (GVP) of Commonwealth managed fisheries. CFA was formed in April 2002, so this collaboration was not evident for the entire snapshot coded for this case. |

GBR government co-managers | High (3) | The co-management arrangements have been in place in policy, law and practice since designation of the MPA. |
---|
GBR recreational fishers | Medium (2) | These associations are not new. They are well established but do not have high representation hence their history of collaboration is medium. |
---|
Wetfish Fishermen | | |
---|
GBR fisheries managers | High (3) | The agency has demonstrated state-level collaboration within its agency that has enabled key changes to fisheries policy and management. |
---|
GBR commercial fishers | Medium (2) | Collaboration within specific sectors, such as operators within the trawl fishery, may be high at particular times (e.g., when management changes are happening). However, collaboration across sectors (trawl and net, for example) are only really evident through membership of the Queensland Seafood Industry Association (QSIA) and various workshops, which are moderate / medium. |
---|
Wakatobi managers | Medium (2) | NGOs have been in the region for about 10 yrs, started informal collaborations prior to formal agreement. Decentralization occurred in 1999 - central and local gov collaborations - Indonesia one of the first examples. Not coded as high because the partnership is fairly new, both between NGOS, and NGOs + government. |

NWHI Researchers | Medium (2) | Some researchers are likely to have collaborated in the past |
---|
California Academic Researchers | High (3) | Many of the research projects are a collaboration of multiple institutions, or at least a larger team of researchers from the same institution. SIMoN was created to serve as a network to provide easily accessible information about each project to other members, allowing further collaboration and to build upon each others work. Some projects are not in conjunction with others, however all are reported SIMoN affiliates and to the broader research community. |

California Sanctuary Recreational Users | Low (1) | Often times users are focused on their particular excursion. Whale watching vessels coordinate amongst each other. Recreational fishermen communicate conditions to each other. |
---|
California Groundfish Fishermen | Medium (2) | Risk pools are a form of fishermen collaboration, where fishermen will combine quotas to reduce risk of one of them overfishing a certain species. However, competition is still high amongst fishermen. Fishermen collaborate in professional organizations as well (e.g. Fishermen's Marketing Association). |
---|
California State and Federal Fisheries Agencies | High (3) | The PFMC and CDFW meet regularly, in person as well as communicating through other means. |

---|
Raja Ampat Managers | Medium (2) | High past collaboration for communities (long-term traditional management), but NGOs arrived in the area in 2001 and the Raja Ampat Regency was inaugurated in 2003 - so overall coded as medium |
---|
Macquarie Island Managers | Medium (2) | Managers do collaborate on the management of the MPA and Nature Reserve. |
---|
Svalbard Tourism | High (3) | Before AECO was formally established, there is evidence of past collaboration. Since the Svalbard community is very small (2000 people in the largest town), companies likely all knew one another and had a least some coordination of itineraries. In recognition of the growing numbers of tourists (although perhaps also partly due to the government desire to create a management plan) the tourism industry worked together to create their own management plan in 1994 outlining how they wish to see the industry operate. |
