Implementers: 
Universities
Countries: 
Objectives: 
To quantify trade offs associated with conservation and human-wildlife conflict, and to provide guidelines that will inform decisions based on these quantifications.

Apply Bayesian Networks and implement frameworks which integrate expert knowledge into feasible and science-based solutions. 

PAs: 
Greater Kruger area
Specific Area (Village, Town, District, Province): 
Areas adjacent to Greater Kruger
HQ of the Initiative: 
Minneapolis, USA
Timeframe: 
2020 to 2023
Is the timeframe likely to be extended?: 
Unsure
Elaborate on likelihood to extend: 
Expert opinion is dependent on management implementations. As management decisions shifts, it will be possible to quantify expert knowledge. As the start of this project, expert knowledge will serve as a priori information, as the later part of this project expert knowledge will serve as posterior data.
