Re: Your input needed for Research Briefings

[Tanya O'Garra]

Dear Counterfactual Community,

Previously, we reached out to ask you to complete a short survey about  what you would like to see from the Impact Evaluation Working Group. Results showed that one of the most requested items was a bi-annual or quarterly summary of published research on impact evaluation in conservation. In response, we are attempting to compile this research, and we need your help to ensure its thoroughness. 

If you have read or published any good papers on impact evaluation in the past 6 months, could you please share them with us so we can compile them into an easily accessible resource? 

Specifically, we are looking for papers that, i) advance our understanding about how to design, implement and analyze robust counterfactual evaluations in conservation, ii) highlight novel data sources, methods, and approaches to counterfactual evaluation in conservation, or iii) present well-executed applied studies identifying the impacts of conservation interventions. 

To share, please email megank...@gmail.com with the following information:

• Title of Paper
• Link to Paper, or DOI
• Sentence or 2 about what you particularly like the article - this is the crucial information we are looking for! We want your insights about why this paper is interesting.
• Your Name (optional – please include if you would like your suggestion attributed to you)

We look forward to sharing the first of our Research Briefings with you!

Best,
Tanya O'Garra, Megan Kocina and Renzo Guidice (Research Briefings Team)
