As environmental problems grow larger and more pressing, conservationists have had to adapt. With a shrinkingwindow of time to act, they are turning to broad approaches to combat continental- and global-scale crises of biodiversityloss, invasive species, and climate change. Pathways to Success—the long-awaited successor to the classic volume Measuresof Success—is a modern guide to building large-scale transformative programs capable of tackling the complexconservation crises we face today.In this strikingly illustrated volume, coauthors Nick Salafsky and Richard Margoluis walk readers through fundamentalconcepts of effective program-level design, helping them to think strategically about project coordination, funding, andstakeholder input. Chapters in the first part of the book look at all aspects of designing and implementing large-scaleconservation programs while the second part focuses on how to use data and information to manage, adapt, and learnfrom program strategies. In addition, the authors offer practical advice for avoiding pitfalls, such as formulaic recipes andsimplistic silver-bullet solutions that can trip up otherwise well-intentioned efforts. Abundant graphics help to explainand clarify concepts presented in the text, and a glossary in the back matter defines technical terms for the reader.Pathways to Success is the definitive guide for conservation program managers and funders who want to increase the scaleand effectiveness of their work combating biodiversity loss, climate change, and other pressing environmental issues.
