dc.description.abstractABSTRACT: BACKGROUND The Theory of Change (ToC) workshops supported by Promote Pollinators Alliance aim to assist the development of pollinator strategies by building a cause-effect roadmap on how specific actions can trigger intended outcomes, and how these subsequently contribute to the desired impact, i.e., pollinator conservation. This initiative provides an opportunity for members lacking a national governmental initiative focused on pollinators, such as Portugal, to develop the basis for a future Pollinator Action Plan. METHODOLOGY The Portuguese Pollinator ToC engaged 24 participants and 2 international consultants, representing 23 organizations, in a series of participatory online meetings from April 2022 to July 2023. The meetings included 3 workshops with Promote Pollinators and Naturalis Biodiversity Center consultants, 15 intermediate meetings of the Portuguese team to develop the conceptual diagram, and 5 meetings to build the narrative presented here. RESULTS During the development of the Portuguese Pollinator ToC, four main themes were identified, each with its pathway but intimately connected: policy & funding, research & knowledge, practices & management and awareness & ecoliteracy. Altogether, 92 actions were identified, including 54 activities and 38 outcomes. All pathways contributed to the following impact statement identified collectively: pollinators and the ecosystem services they provide are promoted across all landscapes (including natural, forest, agricultural and urban areas). The process was presented at the COP15 UN Biodiversity Conference, at the side event organized by the Promote Pollinators Alliance on pollination protection. CONCLUSIONS The stepwise and co-construction ToC process enabled us to structure the (scientific) knowledge, opinions and ideas and to establish the bases for a future, impactful strategic plan. The process also enabled us to strengthen interpersonal relationships towards the construction of a consensual, jointly coordinated action plan that focuses on desired large-scale outcomes to effectively conserve pollinators.eng
