Abstract The marine areas in the Archipelagos of San Andres/Old Providence and Galapagos due to their unique biodiversity have been declared as Biosphere Reserves and in the near future detailed official zonation and management plans should be produced and implemented. During the last years there is an ongoing effort by the responsible agencies in these areas to formulate these plans through a participatory approach with the active involvement of the local stakeholders. This study follows the methods of Multi-Criteria Evaluation and Conflict Analysis in order to provide in a systematic way, information about the priorities and the potential coalitions formed according to these priorities by the local stakeholders regarding the structure and function of the zonation plans. A series of general and associated special criteria related to the dominant issues for the evaluation of the zonation plans in both islands were compared and scored by various stakeholders in both islands through the dissemination of appropriate questionnaires. The performed univariate and multivariate statistical analyses over the expressed preferences scores for the various criteria revealed patterns of dominant preferences as well as potential coalitions according to these preferences. The results suggest that in both areas there are major clusters with participants from several professional sectors which support the zonation plans with environmental protection and sustainable uses zones and also there are clusters mainly from the fisheries sector with a strong preference to traditional unrestricted fishery practice. The study also systematizes the existing information and the data gathered through the Islas Minga project in order to explore and compare the issues which are considered important for the zonation plans by the scientific research with the dominant issues expressed as criteria preferences by the public.
