Synopsis
This book explores how NGOs have been influential in shaping global biodiversity, conservation policy, and practice. It encapsulates a growing body of literature that has questioned the mandates, roles, and effectiveness of these organizations-and the critique of these critics. This volume seeks to nurture an open conversation about contemporary NGO practices through analysis and engagement.

"The intent of the book to open up new and productive spaces of collaboration should be welcomed. It serves as a reminder to conservation NGO staff of the need to find space for reflection in practice, which may well be possible at an individual level but is challenging for an institution." (Rob Small, Oryx, Vol. 53 (4), October, 2019)
"This book is a prime example of the high-quality scholarly work that is being produced within the framework of this new generation of critical environmental conservation studies. ... This book is to be commended for its success in addressing and transposing some of the limitations that accompanied earlier studies. ... this book will be of great use to a variety of readers who seek to deepen their understanding of contemporary environmental conservation." (Katja Neves, Conservation & Society, Vol. 17 (4), 2019)
