- W595958305 abstract "A primary focus of conservation efforts has been the establishment of protected areas, both by governments and conservation non-government organizations, to meet conservation commitments. While most research to date has neglected considerations other than biodiversity, there is a growing recognition that the socio-economic context in which conservation actions are ultimately applied influences the success of implementation. This is reflected by increasing prominence in the literature of considerations of conservation costs. However, despite the increased focus on cost-efficiency in conservation, there is still a lack of critical guidance on techniques for estimating costs and the implications for conservation outcomes of using untested surrogates for actual costs. The inclusion of appropriate cost measures in conservation planning is not only of academic interest but is relevant to ensuring that conservation plans accurately reflect the social context and provide relevant policy advice to government and conservation practitioners. The current knowledge gaps include appropriate methodologies for cost estimation, ways of costing multiple conservation actions, and consideration of costs that vary between groups of stakeholders. These gaps must be filled to ensure that conservation plans translate into effective on-ground actions that are adequately funded and supported by local communities.The primary objective of my thesis is to identify the appropriate costs of conservation given particular socio-economic goals and the likely associated conservation actions, such as acquisition of land for national parks or engaging stakeholders in private land conservation agreements. My thesis research explores these issues for three different types of conservation planning exercises and then develops and applies rigorous economic methods for estimating the costs of conservation. The three kinds of conservation planning exercises are:1. Acquiring land in a well defined land market for extension of an existing protected area system, when acquisition costs are a key consideration;2. Protecting areas in the absence of a well defined market, when opportunity costs are a better measure of the costs of conservation;3. Conserving land on private property through changes in land management that involve incremental changes in management costs.The second objective of my thesis is to incorporate costs to multiple stakeholders and account for multiple conservation strategies and stakeholder preferences. Most conservation plans will involve engaging with a range of stakeholders and implementing different conservation strategies, ranging from acquisition to stewardship programs with private landholders. To accurately reflect the true costs associated with conservation, the variable costs to different stakeholders associated with different strategies must be accounted for explicitly.My third objective is to incorporate uncertainties in my cost estimates into robust budgeting and decision making.
