Prepared under C4RPWC Work Package 1 (Socioeconomics and Policy), this conceptual framework sets out the study’s rationale, methods, and analytical design for evaluating the socioeconomic and policy impacts of the Red Palm Weevil (RPW) in the UAE, Egypt, and Morocco. The framework combines qualitative and quantitative approaches to quantify direct and indirect costs, assess governance and quarantine performance, and identify barriers to IPM adoption. It further specifies data sources, site-selection criteria, and risk–governance indices to inform evidence-based, scalable RPW control policies.
