A theory of participation: what makes stakeholder and public engagement in environmental management work?

TL;DR: In this article, a typology of stakeholder and public engagement based on agency and mode of engagement is proposed to describe different types of public and stakeholder engagement, and the theory comprises four factors that explain much of the variation in outcomes (for the natural environment and/or for participants) between different kinds of engagement.

Biocultural approaches to well-being and sustainability indicators across scales.

TL;DR: It is argued that biocultural approaches, in combination with methods for synthesizing across evidence from multiple sources, are critical to developing metrics that facilitate linkages across scales and dimensions that help bridge the divide between ecosystems and human well-being.

Social equity and the probability of success of biodiversity conservation

TL;DR: In this paper, a conceptual foundation for understanding, predicting, and evaluating how equity affects conservation outcomes is proposed, and types of equity relevant to conservation and explore how they may affect the probability of successfully achieving conservation outcomes.

Gendered risk perceptions associated with human-wildlife conflict: implications for participatory conservation

TL;DR: Gendered differences in risk perceptions may signal different priorities or incentives to participate in efforts to resolve HWC-related risks, and opportunity exists to move beyond thinking about gender as an explanatory variable for understanding how different groups think about participating in conservation activities.

How do community-based conservation programs in developing countries change human behaviour? A realist synthesis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors applied a realist synthesis to 17 community-based conservation programs in developing countries that quantitatively measured behavioural changes linked to conservation outcomes, and identified three main mechanisms that best explain the reasoning of individuals to engage in conservation behaviours: conservation livelihood provides economic value; conservation provides benefits that outweigh losses of curtailing previous behaviour, and giving local authority over resources creates empowerment.

Drivers of landholder participation in tender programs for Australian biodiversity conservation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify the relative importance of different drivers of participation in Victorian conservation tenders and use a maximum entropy ordinal regression to identify the drivers of landholder participation.
