TL;DR: A typology of monitoring categories, defined by their degree of local participation, is suggested, ranging from no local involvement with monitoring undertaken by professional researchers to an entirely local effort with monitoring undertook by local people, to help develop a protocol for monitoring in developing countries.

TL;DR: A simple and cost-effective, field-based biodiversity monitoring system developed specifically for areas where ‘specialist staff’ is lacking and which promotes the participation of local people in the management, stimulates discussions about conservation amongst stakeholders and builds the capacity of park staff and communities in management skills.

TL;DR: A multicountry assessment of tropical resource monitoring by local communities is presented in this paper, with a focus on the monitoring of tropical resources in the field of bio-medical applications.

TL;DR: Bawa et al. as mentioned in this paper argue that these constraints are unrelated to biodiversity monitoring and should be addressed by neglect of different sources of error in the estimation of strengthening the government institutions responsible for biodiversity diversity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the cost efficiency of participatory and conventional biodiversity monitoring methods in Philippine parks and found that, from a government perspective, investment in monitoring that combines scientific with participatory methods is strikingly more effective than a similar level of investment in conventional scientific methods alone in generating conservation management interventions.
