Abstract: Given the context and definition of ecological economics, stakeholder engagement is an important aspect of both its dissemination and traction. Herein, however, lies a significant challenge. Though stakeholder engagement has been a subject of business and management operations, and is widely discussed across academic disciplines, there has been little guidance on key principles for ecological economics. In this chapter, we provide a review of selected literature across disciplines and applications in order to elucidate principles of stakeholder engagement that align to the goals and attributes of ecological economics. Following a review of selected literature, we present a framework relevant to the research to action agenda developed by the contributors to this book. The discussion surfaces the significance of the context of a goal and the need for a continuous improvement mindset as part of the stakeholder engagement process and relative to its overall intent.
