Abstract

This paper discusses some of the issues that have arisen and some of the lessons that have been learned over the last ten years about administering contingent valuation surveys in developing countries. The discussion is organized around five different issues: a. explaining what a contingent valuation study is all about; b. interpreting responses to contingent valuation questions; c. setting referendum prices; d. constructing joint public-private contingent valuation scenarios; and e. ethical problems in conducting such surveys.
