Article Synopsis
  • Current conservation efforts lack a standardized system for identifying and analyzing failures, unlike some other sectors that have made progress in learning from mistakes.
  • The authors created a 3-tier taxonomy that classifies the root causes of failure in conservation projects, based on real-life examples of failures and their underlying issues.
  • Testing the taxonomy with conservation practitioners revealed no significant gaps, and it aims to enhance understanding and learning from failed conservation projects, ultimately fostering a culture that encourages learning from failures in the field.
