Independent
auditing of wildlife/environmental management strategies
for government, NGOs and other relevant organisations
The end product of
applied wildlife and environmental research, such as
that undertaken by Ecological Management Group, is often
used as a basis for action in terms of conservation
status or monitoring of species or populations.
In this process, it is important that
authorities using research for such purposes pursue
an independent verification of the accuracy and validity
of research that may that may have consequences in the
application of primary research in management based
decisions.
Professional research scientists in Ecological
Management Group can provide an independent assessment
of the integrity of scientific research focusing on
four core areas:
i) Study Design
ii) Appropriateness of Research Methods employed
iii) Reliability of results according to i) and ii)
and statistics applied
iv) Scientific accuracy of any conclusions or recommendations
based on i), ii) and iii).
