ABSTRACT
This case study is intended to allow students to experience the application of a consensus-based, multi-stakeholder process to address land-use and development conflict in an environmentally sensitive tropical region. It is recommended for use in all types of environmental and managementrelated courses. No matter the kind of academic discipline environmental students come from, when faced with a real-life sustainable development issue they will have to interact with a variety of individuals having different technical backgrounds, different values, and sometimes conflicting agendas.
