ニュージーランドの政府資金による生態系再生プロジェクト「Jobs for Nature」の雇用効果を分析。359プロジェクトのデータを用いて、資金額が主要な雇用要因であること（10万NZDあたり約0.7FTEの雇用創出）を示す。政策的に、地域の社会経済的状況やプロジェクト期間を考慮した動的アプローチの重要性を提言。
English
Analyzes direct employment effects of 359 ecosystem restoration projects in New Zealand's Jobs for Nature programme. Finds funding is the primary driver (0.7 FTE per NZD 100k), but contextual factors like regional deprivation and project duration matter. Recommends targeted funding for high-deprivation regions and medium-term projects.

日本のGX文脈において
本論文はニュージーランドの事例だが、日本におけるグリーン雇用政策（例：地域脱炭素移行）の設計に示唆を与える。生態系再生の雇用創出効果を定量的に評価する手法は、日本のGX政策評価に応用可能。
In the global GX context
This paper provides empirical evidence on the employment multiplier of ecosystem restoration, relevant to the global just transition and nature-based solutions discourse. The methodology can inform GX policies in other countries evaluating green job creation.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Ecosystem restoration is increasingly recognised as part of the global solution for building a resilient, low-emissions economy, with its associated employment opportunities helping to provide political legitimacy for government investment. In Aotearoa New Zealand, however, little is known about the employment effects of government-funded ecosystem restoration initiatives. This study addresses that gap by analysing project-level data from 359 “Jobs for Nature” projects to examine how funding levels and contextual factors influence direct employment outcomes. Multiple regression analyses build on one-way ANOVA tests to quantify the contribution of funding and contextual factors to employment outcomes and to assess their differential impacts across various settings (regions, agencies, project types, and durations). The analysis reveals that while funding is the primary driver of employment—with each additional NZD 100,000 creating approximately 0.7 full-time equivalent (FTE) jobs—contextual factors call for a more dynamic, targeted policy approach to maximise marginal employment returns. Three key policy implications are accordingly drawn: (1) direct more funding to regions with higher socio-economic deprivation; (2) preferentially support projects of medium-term duration; and (3) evaluate and replicate the practices of high-performing funding agencies.
