The views of the wider global conservation community on fundamental questions regarding what, why and how to conserve are unknown. Here we characterize the views of 9,264 conservationists from 149 countries, identifying specific areas of consensus and disagreement, and three independent dimensions of conservation thinking.
UCT can be a useful tool for estimating the extent of non-compliance within a conservation context, but careful study design, robust sampling and consistent implementation are required in order for it to be effective.
We test a robust, simple metric for monitoring patrol effectiveness using a mechanistic model of law‐breaking and law enforcement
Games can provide an exciting and engaging way to study and manage conservation conflicts. Our new paper discusses how to use them effectively.
Zac’s PhD explores how conflicts are conceptualised and how conservationists intervene to resolve them, focusing on a Wildlife Management Area in Northern Tanzania as a case-study.
Chris's PhD research uses frameworks from common-pool resource literature and game theory to explore conflict over goose numbers in the Scottish islands.
Chris’s research is focused on studying the way people in conservation conflicts make decisions.
