Some challenges in rolled up metrics and reporting

DANIEL HAYDEN AND AMIELLE DEWAN RARE CCNET RALLY APRIL 2013

• Thematic programs don’t solve everything: Significant differences in social and ecological conditions across sites/regions

• Rolled up metrics not as meaningful (e.g. 433% increase)

• Differences in baseline values drives relative impact • Use of global impact assessment metrics not (yet)

used to drive management decisions• Expectations for conservation results and ability to

attribute causality
