Social perceptions and conservation in protected areas : taking stock of the literature

Abstract

This paper conducts a systematic review of the literature (SRL) to update the relevance of social perception (SP) for managing protected areas and conservation spaces that contribute to global and regional efforts to conserve biological diversity and natural resources. Despite their importance, these areas often face complex and conflictive situations between the interest groups of the communities located within or adjacent to them. Therefore, and departing from an SRL, this paper aims to answer the main question about the sociodemographic elements that affect the SP related to protected areas.
