This case study seeks to determine whether current conditions favour successful co-management of the Tobago Cays Marine Park. In order to determine this, interviews and focus groups were conducted with user groups and members of the management board. Secondary data analysis was undertaken. The TCMP is seen by some as a "paper park", with no real implementation. Local communities are aware of this situation and are attempting to have their voices heard by insisting that they play a role in the management decision-making process in order to make the park more successful. Despite this initiative, co-management may have little chance of success unless State authorities facilitate more meaningful stakeholder involvement.
