ISSUE
Economic impact of community natural resource management projects.
DEFINITION
Total gross annual income of each project and all projects combined.
RESULTS
Four of 60 projects reported data for this Measure indicating that implementation and systematization has not been easy. In part this is because the data comes from community natural resource management initiatives and economic data is particularly sensitive and access to this data maybe more restricted. It may also reflect that WCS has not placed enough emphasis on measuring the economic sustainability of these initiatives and might prioritize this more in the future. Nevertheless, an evaluation as to whether or not WCS continues with this Measure is required.
