Social multi-criteria evaluation for managing biodiversity conservation conflicts

Land use changes are among the primary drivers of declining biodiversity. To reverse this decline, governments and agencies are promoting conservation measures. However, these initiatives may lead to conservation conflicts associated with competing land uses. This study analyzes the potential for us...
