Resource description:
Based on experience in seven of the OPERAs Exemplar case studies, we summarize what the research team has learned about working with stakeholders to elicit demand for ecosystem services and put forth an eight-step framework for doing so. Each step of the framework includes examples from the OPERAs Exemplars. A "quick guide" summary version of this document is available at: http://www.oppla.eu/product/17540
Advantages:
- Understanding the ecosystem services that stakeholders value and demand can help illustrate conservation and education priorities, raise awareness of the importance of ecosystem services, and inform better policy and practice.
