“…While opposing in their material footprint and territorial reach, both forms—wilderness conservation and export‐based commodity markets—rely on a transformation of space that presupposes integration into the capitalist world system. Scholars have highlighted the integration of the region's commodity export industries (Núñez et al., 2022) and conservation markets with the dynamics of neoliberal capitalism (Borrie et al., 2022; Fletcher et al., 2015; Holmes, 2014; Mendoza et al., 2017).…”

This conclusion to the In‐Focus issue examines the conservation frontier in Patagonia. The conservation frontier is a historical process of spatial transformation connected to the mobilization of imaginaries that unlock existing regimes of resource control and promote new territorialization projects. The discussion highlights the creation of national park systems, the securing of the contested border, and the conversion of Andean Patagonia into a space of sublime wilderness. We argue that the contemporary conservation frontier is an open field of contestation defined by its multiplicities. The articles comprising the special issue reflect crosscutting themes regarding frontier multiplicities: varied conservation‐based territorialization projects; the genesis of onto‐epistemic frictions between actors; and disparate frontier temporalities that anchor spatial transformations. These contemporary frontier projects draw attention to new avenues of change related to Indigenous self‐rule and carework, co‐management regimes, infrastructure building efforts, and eco‐apocalyptic temporalities, as well as hyping the possibility of Patagonia as a bastion for alternative energy. Thus, this conclusion highlights how conservation frontiers are historically made and remade in relation to spatial production tied to capitalist dynamics and state formation.

“…The conserved areas and conservation efforts are established and managed by an individual landowner, whether a non-profit (e.g., university, NGO) or a for-profit business (Mitchell et al, 2018). PPAs demonstrate evidence of not only conservation successes (Clements et al, 2018) but also potential and real conflicts (Borrie et al, 2022).…”

Biodiversity and the science that addresses its conservation, loss, and recovery, including conservation biology and restoration ecology, are high on the contemporary global agenda. While the hospitality industry has taken major steps toward net carbon zero and even net positive business, we argue that it has another significant advance to make. The United Nations has dedicated 2021–2030 as the decade of ecosystem restoration, and along with it, several other organizations offer guidance on how businesses should approach the natural environment. Considering the role of hospitality as a consumer of nature, we call for the industry to implement these principles in practice through nature-based solutions and restorative and regenerative hospitality. To strengthen this transformation, we urge hospitality management education to include the basic concepts of ecology, biodiversity, and environmental science, along with their application, in curricula. By doing this, education can advance from presenting sustainability actions as a necessity into illustrating and justifying their need on a planetary scale. The change will facilitate the next step the hospitality industry must take in transforming its relationship with the natural environment.

“…In fact, our results demonstrate that people can obtain access to a set of bene ts from protected areas, including income, education, and health bene ts, which could only be improved via effective conservation planning. These ndings coincide with previous research showing that people accept protected areas when they perceive positive outcomes(Schiappacasse et al, 2012; , which is in agreement with prior studies(Aburto et al, 2020;Borrie et al, 2020;Zorondo-Rodríguez et al, 2019). Indeed, a richer dialogue and alliance-building must be further developed between different social groups, including local and indigenous communities.…”

Biodiversity conservation contributes to satisfy the human well-being. Particularly, protected areas reshape the ways in which people interact with ecosystems and each other, producing changes in the opportunities they have to satisfy the different dimensions of their well-being. The pathways linking human well-being and protected areas could be understood as one or more causal mechanisms, which can be structured through nature’s contributions to people -or ecosystem services- (NCP). A semi-structured interview captured the perceptions of stakeholders of four Chilean protected areas to identify the multiple mechanisms regarding how protected areas and well-being are related. Stakeholders expressed a diversity of NCP from protected areas, including material, non-material, and regulating NCP. The frequencies of mentions of the categories of NCP varied significantly among protected areas. The reported NCP varied among stakeholders from different institutions. The stakeholders’ narratives suggested that protected areas satisfy several dimensions of human well-being, which varied across protected areas. Protected areas were declared as contributing to several dimensions of human well-being, not only economically. The narratives showed co-occurrences of the satisfaction of dimensions of human well-being and NCP or activities from protected areas. Narratives suggested a set of multiple mechanisms between protected areas and human well-being at local level. This study emphasizes the need to design adaptive management plans of protected areas based on multiple mechanisms linking biodiversity protection and human well-being. Also, our results could facilitate the alignment of biodiversity conservation and community development agendas.
