Building on a workshop last November in Oaxaca, my lab group in the Center for Behavior, Institutions, and the Environment at ASU has recently published a working paper on success factors for effective environmental management. This work builds on several great papers published over the last decade as well as field work by my students and collaborators to substantiate this research.
We put this together as a practitioner’s brief that could be used by people in the field working to build or strengthen collaborations. There is no fancy work here, just a collection of findings that we hope can help people achieve better outcomes and accomplish their goals.
This is the first part of our work towards understanding how these factors change under varying contexts. We are building a database and examining multiple cases from around the world with a goal to improve how groups of people work together across borders and boundaries.
