This paper presents the results from a survey targeting the Sámi population in Sweden, exploring trust in key state and industry actors in the governance of hydropower. The results demonstrate a widespread signal of low trust, which is correlated with a confluence of factors: a strong concern with negative impacts from hydropower on Sámi culture, experiences of limited opportunities to influence decisions, and a perceived low competence as well as limiting attitude from governance actors.</p> <p>Regarding the role of demographic variables, this research reports on some notable deviations from previous research about institutional trust. The authors discuss how collaborative governance initiatives often-times are launched to strengthen trust, but that design and implementation failures can, counter-productively, serve to erode trust among Indigenous constituencies. If Sámi trust is to be strengthened, then it will require state authorities and hydropower companies to genuinely engage with Sámi rights claims and ensure influence in decision-making. The findings of this research also have direct policy relevance, pointing to the need for a steep learning curve if the pending review of hydropower licenses, launched by the Swedish government, is to play a meaningful role in addressing past and ongoing impacts of hydropower on the Sámi People.</p> </div> </div> </section> <section class="c-download-publication o-section"> <div class="c-download-publication__container o-container"> <div class="c-download-publication__buttons"> <div class="c-download-publication__wrapper"> <a class="o-button" href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envsci.2024.103918" target="_blank"> Read the paper <svg class="o-svg o-svg--external-link "><use class="o-svg__use " xlink:href="https://www.sei.org/wp-content/themes/sei/assets/img/symbol/svg/sprite.symbol.svg?v2.0#external-link" /></svg> </a> <p class="c-download-publication__text"> Open access </p> </div> </div> </section> <section class="c-card-block c-card-block--people-list c-card-block--full-width o-section c-card-block--authors c-card-block--layout-3_per_row js-full-width"> <div class="o-container"> <div class="c-card-block__header"> <h2 class="c-card-block__title"> SEI authors </h2> </div> <div class="c-card-block__card-outer"> <div class="c-card-block__cards"> <div class="c-person-card c-person-card--internal"> <picture><source srcset="https://www.sei.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/katarina-inga-250x250.jpg?modtime=" media="(min-width:1px)"><img srcset="https://www.sei.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/katarina-inga-250x250.jpg?modtime=" alt="Katarina Inga" class="c-person-card__image" loading="lazy"></picture> <div class="c-person-card__content"> <a class="c-person-card__link" href="https://www.sei.org/people/katarina-inga/"> Katarina Inga </a> <p class="c-person-card__job-title"> Research Associate </p> <p class="c-person-card__centre">SEI Headquarters</p> </div> </div> <div class="c-person-card c-person-card--internal"> <picture><source srcset="https://www.sei.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/rasmus-1-res-250x250.webp?modtime=" media="(min-width:1px)"><img srcset="https://www.sei.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/rasmus-1-res-250x250.webp?modtime=" alt="" class="c-person-card__image" loading="lazy"></picture> <div class="c-person-card__content"> <a class="c-person-card__link" href="https://www.sei.org/people/rasmus-klocker-larsen/"> Rasmus Kløcker Larsen </a> <p class="c-person-card__job-title"> Team Leader: Rights and Equity </p> <p class="c-person-card__centre">SEI Headquarters</p> </div> </div> <div class="c-person-card c-person-card--internal"> <picture><source srcset="https://www.sei.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/petermrudberg-250x250.jpg?modtime=" media="(min-width:1px)"><img srcset="https://www.sei.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/petermrudberg-250x250.jpg?modtime=" alt="headshot photo Peter M.
