项目摘要

Modern conservation approaches have proved largely ineffective to redress ecosystem degradation, and there is growing interest in market-based conservation methods, such as payment-for-ecosystem-services (PES), as a promising alternative. At the core of PES is the assumption that payments made to natural resource managers to produce environmental benefits must be conditional on observable actions or measurable outcomes, which implies that natural resource managers need to be coerced to conserve the environment. However, previous research has suggested that strictly enforced conditionality in PES is not necessary for producing desired outcomes, and it often increases inequities within communities. This project will investigate whether conditionality is necessary to achieve conservation objectives and the extent to which enforcement of conditionality leads to undesirable environmental, social, and economic effects. The project will contribute to theoretical understandings of how market-based approaches affect conservation outcomes and transform human-environment relations. This knowledge will provide a framework for understanding the paths by which market-based approaches produce intended and unintended outcomes. Knowledge generated from this project may contribute to broadening PES program participation. Results are likely to assist conservation organizations, policy makers, and society improve the design of conservation programs. Finally, the project will advance graduate student research and training and undergraduate teaching. De-identified data from the project will be made available to other researchers.This project will determine the role of conditionality in PES in shaping human-environment relations, and the extent to which conditionality can be relaxed or removed to produce environmental benefits without increasing inequities. The investigators will use a political ecological framework that recognizes the social, cultural, political economic, and institutional contexts of conservation to analyze PES programs and their defining feature: conditionality. Specifically, the investigators ask three questions: (1) What are the effects of conditionality in PES on conservation? (2) What are the effects of conditionality in PES on inequalities within households and communities? (3) What are the mechanisms through which conditional and unconditional payments produce intended and unintended outcomes? The investigators will answer these questions using a mixed-methods approach that integrates a randomized controlled trial with qualitative enquiries to assess conditional versus unconditional PES in rural Bolivian communities. Results from this project will be disseminated through a PES forum, and made available to public and private entities that fund or manage PES programs worldwide.

事实证明，现代保护方法在纠正生态系统退化方面基本上是无效的，人们对以市场为基础的保护方法越来越感兴趣，例如生态系统服务付费(PES)，作为一种有前途的替代方案。PES的核心是这样一个假设，即为产生环境效益而向自然资源管理者支付的款项必须以可观察到的行动或可衡量的结果为条件，这意味着需要强迫自然资源管理者保护环境。然而，以前的研究表明，在PES中严格执行条件并不是产生预期结果所必需的，而且它经常增加社区内的不平等。该项目将调查条件性条件是否对实现保护目标是必要的，以及条件性条件的实施在多大程度上导致了不良的环境、社会和经济影响。该项目将有助于从理论上理解以市场为基础的方法如何影响保护结果和改变人与环境的关系。这些知识将为理解以市场为基础的方法产生预期和非预期结果的途径提供一个框架。从这个项目中产生的知识可能有助于扩大PES计划的参与。结果可能会帮助保护组织、政策制定者和社会改进保护计划的设计。最后，该项目将促进研究生的研究和培养以及本科教学。该项目将向其他研究人员提供未确定的数据。该项目将确定生态系统中的条件性在塑造人-环境关系中的作用，以及在多大程度上可以放宽或取消条件性，以在不增加不平等的情况下产生环境效益。调查人员将使用一个政治生态框架，该框架认识到保护的社会、文化、政治、经济和制度背景，以分析PES计划及其定义特征：条件性。具体地说，研究人员提出了三个问题：(1)生态系统的条件性对保护有什么影响？(2)生态系统的条件性对家庭和社区内的不平等有什么影响？(3)有条件和无条件支付产生预期和非预期结果的机制是什么？调查人员将使用混合方法回答这些问题，该方法将随机对照试验与定性调查相结合，以评估玻利维亚农村社区有条件和无条件的PES。该项目的成果将通过PES论坛传播，并向资助或管理全球PES计划的公共和私人实体提供。
