implementation processes. Promoting
ecosystem-level conservation based on
LCD will rely on engaging local
stakeholders, i.e., local community
members and locally based interest
groups potentially impacted by
conservation actions, in conservation
design, planning, and implementation

processes. To date, no systematic
assessment of local stakeholders’ role in
LCD has been conducted. Lacking such

stakeholders in information sharing and
decision making) are most valuable in
LCD processes. Information gathered in
this study will provide essential, nonduplicative data and insights for
ongoing and future LCD efforts. In
addition to literature review and
participant observation, this study will
employ a multiple case study approach
focused on three LCD efforts. We will
conduct semi-structured interviews of
90 non-Federal LCD partners and local
stakeholders to ascertain how LCD
efforts have attempted to integrate social
information, how these efforts have
worked, and how they might be
improved under varying socialecological conditions.
