The workshop was attended by 73 participants (16 women and 57 men), whom we invited to represent various sectors and local communities. We established the list of invitees through an extensive online search validated and complemented by key local informants. We divided registered participants into five groups based on their sectoral affiliation: 16 residents of local communities, including farmers (herein ‘Community’), 14 researchers and scientists (‘Research’), 16 professionals in conservation and management (‘Conservation’), 17 professionals in forestry, agriculture, and water management and governance (‘Resources’), and 10 other professionals mainly drawn from the tourism sector (‘Other’). We used two questionnaires—herein ‘habitat’ and ‘ecosystem services’— with open and closed questions. Closed questions were scored using a Likert-type scale.
