Project summary:

The broad goal of this project is to improve participatory decision-making in human-wildlife conflict (HWC) contexts (focusing on great apes in Africa). We hope to improve our understanding of participatory decision-making in human-wildlife conflict contexts, and to develop a framework to support future conservation research and practice across diverse social-ecological settings.
