Summary
This study aims to show that in specific areas, there is potential for biodiversity conservation to also directly reduce local poverty. Official development aid is now almost exclusively aimed at poverty reduction. To increase public-sector funding of international biodiversity conservation and to improve the sustainability of conservation efforts, conservation NGOs need to do a better job of using conservation activities to reduce poverty wherever possible.
