UR - https://www.unicat.be/uniCat?func=search&query=sysid:139125771 AB - "The long-awaited successor to the classic volume Measures of Success, which transformed conservation practices in the early 2000s, Pathways of Success is a modern guide to building large-scale transformative programs that take conservation planning to the next level, just when we need them most. In this delightfully illustrated volume, coauthors Nick Salafsky and Richard Margoluis lay out fundamental concepts of effective program-level design by adapting project-level approaches to meet the needs of large programs. Chapters in the first part of the book look at all aspects of designing and implementing large-scale conservation programs, while the second part focuses on how to use data and information to manage, adapt, and learn from program strategies. In addition, they offer practical advice for avoiding pitfalls that can trip up otherwise well-intentioned efforts. Abundant graphics help to explain and clarify concepts presented in the text; a glossary in the back matter defines technical terms for the reader. Pathways to Success is the definitive guide for conservation program managers and funders who want to increase the scale and effectiveness of their work. Its principles and practices can be readily applied beyond conservation to such fields as public health, human rights, social equity, and economic development"-- ER -
