Abstract

This paper examines the nature of the management and governance structures underpinning the North East Kent European Marine Site (NEKEMS). It tells the story of how a strong and effective partnership has been built over the last 15 years, overcoming historical disputes between proponents of economic development and conservation. It explores a range of techniques used to encourage community engagement with marine conservation and looks at an innovative approach to community consultation. The development of social capital is identified as a central factor in the success of the partnership. Furthermore, the concept is also used as an analytical tool for evaluating the effectiveness of the partnership.
