The comparative performance of land sharing, land sparing type interventions on place-based human well-being by Carmenta, Rachel, Steward, Angela, Albuquerque, Adrielly, Carneiro, Renan, Vira, Bhaskar, Estrada-Carmona, Natalia

“…We address this knowledge gap, adopting a perception-based impact evaluation within communities across four intervention types representing the land sparing, sharing gradient: intensified industrial soy production (n = 60 HHs), a protected area (n = 70), an extractive reserve (n = 70) and a national forest (n = 70) in Pará in the Brazilian Amazon. We collected data using the Global Person Generated Index (GPGI) with household heads (n = 270) in eight communities (two per intervention type). …”
