Who Gains from Saving Nature
A searchable case database examining where money goes in projects presented as protecting nature—and who benefits.
- For
- Readers researching conservation finance and environmental policy
- Worth noticing
- Case entries include status markers such as “under standard-setter review” and “no independent ecological evaluation.”
Field notes
The visible entries combine project timelines, financial figures, and status markers rather than treating conservation projects as a single outcome. For example, the Kariba entry reports a Verra finding about excess credits, while the Tanzania entry includes both the government’s description of relocation as voluntary and Human Rights Watch’s report that services were cut to push residents out. The linked method section may explain the evidence standards, but its contents are not present in this extract.
