The researcher–practitioner symbiosis: Evolving mutualisms from parachutes

María Teresa Vargas, Máximo Garcia, Tito Vidaurre, Alex Carrasco et autres

Abstract Researchers and practitioners often exist symbiotically, but this relationship does not always benefit both parties. We here discuss a mutualistic research symbiosis that our organizations have developed over the last decade, the challenges which we have experienced as part of this …

Mechanisms and impacts of an incentive‐based conservation program with evidence from a randomized control trial

Emma Wiik, Julia P. G. Jones, Edwin Pynegar, Patrick Bottazzi et autres

Conservation science needs more high-quality impact evaluations, especially ones that explore mechanisms of success or failure. Randomized control trials (RCTs) provide particularly robust evidence of the effectiveness of interventions (although they have been criticized as reductionist and unable to provide insights into …

Large-scale randomized control trials of incentive-based conservation: What have we learned?

What role should randomized control trials play in providing the evidence base for conservation?

Edwin Pynegar, James Gibbons, Nigel Asquith, Julia P. G. Jones

Abstract The effectiveness of many widely used conservation interventions is poorly understood because of a lack of high-quality impact evaluations. Randomized control trials (RCTs), in which experimental units are randomly allocated to treatment or control groups, offer an intuitive way to calculate …

Experimental evaluation of the impact of a payment for environmental services program on deforestation

Emma Wiik, Rémi d’Annunzio, Edwin Pynegar, David Crespo et autres

Despite calls for greater use of randomized control trials (RCTs) to evaluate the impact of conservation interventions; such experimental evaluations remain extremely rare. Payments for environmental services (PES) are widely used to slow tropical deforestation but there is widespread recognition of the …

The effectiveness of Payments for Ecosystem Services at delivering improvements in water quality: lessons for experiments at the landscape scale

Edwin Pynegar, Julia P. G. Jones, James Gibbons, Nigel Asquith

Background Randomised Control Trials (RCTs) are used in impact evaluation in a range of fields. However, despite calls for their greater use in environmental management, their use to evaluate landscape scale interventions remains rare. Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) incentivise land users …

Program effectiveness is fundamentally an empirical question so well-designed field studies are needed. We highlight some of the challenges encountered in using this …
