Summary of the thesis project
The thesis aims to contribute to the development of management science frameworks to address the challenges of ecosystem management through the ecosystem-centric accounting approach. The objective is to further develop this new approach both theoretically and experimentally, using the "ecosystem-centred accounting framework" as a basis for designing accounts adapted to different contexts of action for the environment.
The thesis is carried out using research-intervention methods in collaboration with the Tour du Valat, a private research and conservation institute that works for the conservation of Mediterranean wetlands.
