Reflections on science–stakeholder interactions in climate change adaptation research within Swedish forestry

The article analyzes the challenges and requirements of science-stakeholder interactions in Swedish forestry research related to climate change. It identifies barriers to communication and emphasizes the need for research findings to be presented in formats that support decision-making and for clear communication of goals to prevent stakeholder fatigue.

• Communication between researchers and stakeholders in climate change research on ecosystem services is frequently hindered by time constraints, differing priorities, and linguistic barriers.
• The Swedish forestry sector has expressed a need for access to scientific knowledge, prompting a discussion on how to format research findings to better support decision-making processes.
• To mitigate the risk of stakeholder fatigue, there must be transparent communication regarding resources, time frames, expectations, and common goals.
