Local people were once considered a threat to nature and often removed from protected areas. Today, many international and national conservation organisations promote a wide range of people-oriented conservation approaches. Despite these changes, this insightful contribution suggests that we should be careful before claiming that “participation” and “people centred processes” have been mainstreamed in global conservation programmes. Drawing mainly on case study materials from WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature)— the world’s largest independent conservation organisation— the author explores the idea that change is conditioned by complex reflexive relations between dominant conservation narratives, western environmental values, fundraising approaches and organisational structures, which can all work against the “leopard changing its spots”.
