Due to the low level of return of research results to the traditional communities of Soure Marine Extractive Reserve and the lack of recognition of the protected area and its sustainable extractive activities, the management of the area promoted a Research Seminar for adialogue between the PAs stakeholders, bringing the extractive populations as protagonists. The Seminar was attended by councilors of the reserve, the academic community, municipal government and extractivists. Its objectives were to share the knowledge produced of the PA, presenting studies on the use of local natural resources, social contextualization of the territory and resource management institutions, stimulating the generation of proposals for managing the development of the knowledge and surveying the main demands of the local community with regard to the production and dissemination of scientific knowledge by researchers.
