Behind the Paper

The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows

The global conservation movement is diverse but not divided

Should biodiversity be conserved for its own sake or because it provides benefits to people? Should nature have to pay its own way in the marketplace? Should people be displaced to make space for protected areas? Trying to understand the beliefs of conservationists on such issues, how these are shaped, and how they affect conservation practice, has been the subject of our collaborative research since 2011.
