Biodiversity poverty map database

As part of our project on biodiversity-poverty evidence, we conducted a systematic mapping exercise of the literature on biodiversity and poverty. This database includes details of the studies reviewed including: summary information, bibliographic details, details about the component of biodiversity and dimension of poverty addressed, and the mechanisms used to link them,  as well as details about the research design and key issues covered.

Note this research was undertaken between 2012 - 2013, and the search has not been updated since to capture additional publications.
