3. Assessing Collated and Synthesised Evidence

Chapter of: Transforming Conservation: A Practical Guide to Evidence and Decision Making(pp. 75–94)

Multiple pieces of evidence can be brought together in a variety of ways including systematic maps, subject-wide evidence synthesis, systematic reviews, rapid evidence assessment, meta-analysis and collated open access effect sizes. Each has different uses. This chapter describes each along with suggestions for how to interpret the results and assess the evidence.
