Rural networks for coexistence: fostering dialogue, mutual learning and collaboration between livestock farmers and rural stakeholders in the face of large carnivores

The project aims to strengthen coexistence between rural communities and large carnivores in Spain by creating participatory spaces for dialogue, knowledge-sharing and collaboration. Drawing on the scientific findings and field experience of the SeeCoex project, it translates research findings into concrete actions through regional workshops involving livestock farmers and a national multi-stakeholder dialogue. It thereby promotes the joint development of practical solutions, the strengthening of rural networks, the emergence of local leaders and the development of collaborative governance around the management of large carnivores.
