Indigenous And Local Communities And Protected Areas Towards Equity And Enhanced Conservation Best Practice Protected Area Guidelines Series

Conventional approaches to managing protected areas have often seen people and nature as separate entities. They preclude human communities from using natural resources and assume that their concerns are incompatible with conservation. This volume explores protected area approaches and models that see conservation as compatible with human communities. The main themes are co-managed protected areas and community conserved areas. Practical guidance is offered, drawing on recent experience, reflections and advice developed at the local, national, regional and international level.Borrini-Feyerabend, Grazia is the author of 'Indigenous And Local Communities And Protected Areas Towards Equity And Enhanced Conservation Best Practice Protected Area Guidelines Series', published 2004 under ISBN 9782831706757 and ISBN 2831706750.
