Everyone's Evidence on
Human–Wildlife Interactions 

A free and accessible portal that communicates evidence intervention effectiveness in reducing the impact of wildlife on various human interests.

The Aim of EviWild

Collate and communicate scientific evidence of the effectiveness of interventions intended to mitigate impact of wildlife on human interests.

The portal provides a free and easily accessible resource for anyone who is interested in the scientific evidence of intervention effectiveness. The aim is to provide reliable evidence syntheses based on systematic reviews, to give various stakeholders a shared view of the current scientific evidence.

About EviWild

An evidence portal that communicates evidence intervention effectiveness in reducing the impact of wildlife on various human interests.

01

The EviWild Initiative

The initiative of creating the portal came from the Swedish Wildlife Damage Centre (SWDC) at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Grimsö, Sweden. The creation and maintenance of the portal is funded by the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency (Naturvårdsverket) and undertaken by the SWDC.

02

The Evidence on EviWild

The aim is to fill EviWild with reliable evidence syntheses based on systematic maps and reviews of scientific evidence. These reviews are externally funded and we are currently seeking funding to undertake such reviews.

03

Human-Wildlife Interactions

The conservation of numerous wildlife species depends on coexistence with humans in multi-use landscapes, where spatial overlap can lead to positive interactions but can also generate conflict. As a result, mitigating negative wildlife impacts on human livelihoods has become a central priority in modern wildlife management.

04

How you can Help

EviWild is a collaborative effort that grows through the contributions of researchers, practitioners, and organisations within the wildlife management community. By sharing relevant studies, you help strengthen the evidence base and support the development of evidence-informed practices.
