4. Roles
I would include a principle on including indigenous knowledge into the project - many aspects of traditional practises are ignored in western centred project management and I feel this an important part of conservation
I see so many projects in the UK having far away dates for when they want to achieve things with minimal action in the here and now. It would be great if more people adopted the "do something" attitude to get the ball rolling quicker.
Maybe a good 6th principle could be "Ensure Sustainability": Design and implement a project with long-term ecological, social, and financial sustainability in mind, considering how benefits and responsibilities will continue after the project ends.
I like this one!
I like this one, Alessio, and it kind of ties in with one I thought of, except I thought of the sustainability of the people involved in the project. "Prioritise Wellbeing". Realising that conservation is emotionally and physically draining, so allowing realistic workloads, and regular check-ins for motivation and productivity. When the wellbeing of the team is prioritised, the quality and impact of the work improve too!
I love this one!
I would include understanding all stakeholders viewpoints - after reading about the introduction of Falcons in London, and learning how they have solved one problem (reduced pigeon population) but also caused unintended harm (eg/ attacking workmen and visitors during nesting season) - I think its really important to get info and feedback from all parties that could be affected (animal and human). It could come under do no harm too.
I wonder whether 'Reflect/Lessons learned' would be a good principle. It is a natural part of a project process which should be applied regularly, but particularly at the end of the project, the team could reflect on how the project panned out, what could have gone better and what could have gone worse, and take those principles into future projects to better ensure their smooth application.
I would add one for understanding local context - understanding how the project results and implementation differs in different contexts is vital to project success. It helps understanding how local communities operate (hierarchy, perceived gender roles), availability of equipment, etc etc
