Business Planning and Analysis

 

The business of conservation is complicated. Whether we are evaluating the economic feasibility of a conservation enterprise like ecotourism, running a conservation landscape, or managing a country program, our conservation efforts can often benefit from a rigorous business analysis. As WCS staff tend to be natural or social scientists and not business managers, Conservation Support has, since 2005, sought assistance from the Haas School of Business at UC Berkeley. Each year, this partnership offers WCS the opportunity to engage teams of Haas MBA student consultants to work on WCS projects anywhere in the world outside of the USA. For more information on the WCS-Haas partnership, please contact London Davies. Additionally, Conservation Support, through the TransLinks program's remit of Promoting Transformations by Linking Nature, Wealth and Power, has profiled successful examples of conservation-focused, wildlife-friendly enterprises from around the world in a series of two-page summaries and longer case study documents.
