Le développement durable et sa traduction en terme de participation des acteurs locaux aux choix d'avenir des territoires dans lesquels ils vivent ou travaillent, sont devenus des sujets d'actualité. Parmi les méthodes pour mettre en place des démarches participatives autour de la gestion durable des ressources naturelles renouvelables, la modélisation d'accompagnement est particulièrement originale. Cet ouvrage a pour objectif de familiariser le lecteur avec la démarche de modélisation d'accompagnement, en présentant la posture scientifique qui la fonde, ses méthodes et ses outils, et la place particulière des modèles. Il explique également comment intégrer plusieurs échelles de décision, prendre en compte les jeux de pouvoir, et enfin comment évaluer les effets sur les personnes associées à la mise en œuvre de cette démarche. Cet ouvrage s'appuie sur les exemples concrets issus de 27 cas étudiés par le collectif de chercheurs et sur des outils pédagogiques. Il est destiné aux chercheurs dans le domaine du développement rural et des ressources renouvelables, ainsi qu'aux étudiants et enseignants.
