Book Synopsis Indigenous Peoples, National Parks, and Protected Areas by : Stan Stevens
Download or read book Indigenous Peoples, National Parks, and Protected Areas written by Stan Stevens and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2014-09-18 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vast number of national parks and protected areas throughout the world have been established in the customary territories of Indigenous peoples. In many cases these conservation areas have displaced Indigenous peoples, undermining their cultures, livelihoods, and self-governance, while squandering opportunities to benefit from their knowledge, values, and practices. This book makes the case for a paradigm shift in conservation from exclusionary, uninhabited national parks and wilderness areas to new kinds of protected areas that recognize Indigenous peoples’ conservation contributions and rights. It documents the beginnings of such a paradigm shift and issues a clarion call for transforming conservation in ways that could enhance the effectiveness of protected areas and benefit Indigenous peoples in and near tens of thousands of protected areas worldwide. Indigenous Peoples, National Parks, and Protected Areas integrates wide-ranging, multidisciplinary intellectual perspectives with detailed analyses of new kinds of protected areas in diverse parts of the world. Eleven geographers and anthropologists contribute nine substantive fieldwork-based case studies. Their contributions offer insights into experience with new conservation approaches in an array of countries, including Australia, Canada, Guatemala, Honduras, Nepal, Nicaragua, Peru, South Africa, and the United States. This book breaks new ground with its in-depth exploration of changes in conservation policies and practices—and their profound ramifications for Indigenous peoples, protected areas, and social reconciliation.

Download or read book Indigenous and Local Communities and Protected Areas written by Grazia Borrini and published by IUCN. This book was released on 2004 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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. Protected area approaches and models that see conservation as compatible with human communities are explored. 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.

Book Synopsis How Well is Co-management Working? by : Melanie Zurba
Download or read book How Well is Co-management Working? written by Melanie Zurba and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Protected area management in Australia, as in Canada and elsewhere, has begun to focus on community-based management strategies. In response, governments and communities, including Indigenous groups, face the challenges of developing cooperative management arrangements with multiple interests potentially entering the appropriate arenas, and being incorporated into regional governance and management systems. The literature on co-management and participation in environmental management has been developed along with this movement in regional management, and has a series of associated typologies, as well as theoretical and practical implications. The overall direction of this research is directed by the questions ‘How well is co-management working?’ within the context of the arrangements between government agencies and an Indigenous organization. The Girringun Aboriginal Corporation (GAC) represents the interests of nine Traditional Owner groups and has been involved in working through regional natural resources and protected areas partnerships with government over many years. These partnerships include an Indigenous ranger unit, Australia’s first Traditional Use of Marine Resource Agreement, and the plans for an Indigenous Protected Area, which will be the first over a mainstream multi-tenure area, as well as the first to incorporate both land and sea country. Girringun country is located in Northern Queensland Australia, and is located at the coastal interface of the Wet Tropics and Great Barrier Reef eco regions, which are World Heritage Areas represented by their respective authorities. Other tenures include public freehold lands, State forest and reserves, and National parks. In order to answer the research question, I evaluated the partnerships between government senior managers from the departments involved in regional resources and protected areas management with the GAC. Qualitative methods in the form of document reviews and semi-structured interviews, as well as methods using a participatory approach such as participant observation, a focus group and creative workshop, were used to answer the research questions. I used an exploration of perspectives and the storyline form of discourse analysis to investigate perspectives on land and sea governance and management, past and current partnership arrangements, and how power is being shared amongst partners to the arrangements. The research is therefore divided into three main research objectives, plus one relating specifically to outcome for the GAC: 1) Explore Traditional Owner, Girringun Aboriginal Corporation, and government values and aspirations for country; 2) Identify and conceptually map the governance and management institutional arrangement on Girringun country and describe the integrity of the relationships among the different components of the arrangements; 3) Evaluate the experiences of the governance and management partners with an eye for ‘lessons learned’; and 4) Work within a mutually beneficial research arrangement with the GAC. Investigations of partnerships made it possible to consider the arrangement within the scope of typologies within the co-management literature. The mapped structure of the arrangements, in addition to the storylines indicating the levels of integrity within partnerships, and levels of power sharing made it possible to assert whether or not co-management was indeed occurring. It was determined that the Girringun case indeed a co-management within the given typologies in both theoretical and practical terms. The Girringun case is a good example of a grass-roots regional organization bridging mainstream and Indigenous aspirations for protected areas management, which in turn is translating into favourable on-the-ground outcomes and working arrangements for multi-party governance systems. The Girringun case demonstrates the importance of regional arrangements taking into account locally responsible management bodies, and reflects the journey that is co-management."--P. vii-viii.

Book Synopsis Guidelines for Applying Protected Area Management Categories by : Nigel Dudley
Download or read book Guidelines for Applying Protected Area Management Categories written by Nigel Dudley and published by IUCN. This book was released on 2008 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IUCN's Protected Areas Management Categories, which classify protected areas according to their management objectives, are today accepted as the benchmark for defining, recording, and classifying protected areas. They are recognized by international bodies such as the United Nations as well as many national governments. As a result, they are increasingly being incorporated into government legislation. These guidelines provide as much clarity as possible regarding the meaning and application of the Categories. They describe the definition of the Categories and discuss application in particular biomes and management approaches.
Book Synopsis Governing the Provision of Ecosystem Services by : Roldan Muradian
Download or read book Governing the Provision of Ecosystem Services written by Roldan Muradian and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Founded on the core notion that we have reached a turning point in the governance, and thus the conservation, of ecosystems and the environment, this edited volume features more than 20 original chapters, each informed by the paradigm shift in the sector over the last decade. Where once the emphasis was on strategies for conservation, enacted through instruments of control such as planning and ‘polluter pays’ legislation, more recent developments have shown a shift towards incentive-based arrangements aimed at those responsible for providing the environmental services enabled by such ecosystems. Encouraging shared responsibility for watershed management, developed in Costa Rica, is a prime example, and the various interests involved in its instauration in Java are one of the subjects examined here.
Book Synopsis Entangled Territorialities by : Francoise Dussart
Download or read book Entangled Territorialities written by Francoise Dussart and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2017-04-24 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entangled Territorialities offers vivid ethnographic examples of how Indigenous lands in Australia and Canada are tangled with governments, industries, and mainstream society. Most of the entangled lands to which Indigenous peoples are connected have been physically transformed and their ecological balance destroyed. Each chapter in this volume refers to specific circumstances in which Indigenous peoples have become intertwined with non-Aboriginal institutions and projects including the construction of hydroelectric dams and open mining pits. Long after the agents of resource extraction have abandoned these lands to their fate, Indigenous peoples will continue to claim ancestral ties and responsibilities that cannot be understood by agents of capitalism. The editors and contributors to this volume develop an anthropology of entanglement to further examine the larger debates about the vexed relationships between settlers and indigenous peoples over the meaning, knowledge, and management of traditionally-owned lands.
Book Synopsis Protected Area Governance and Management by : Graeme L. Worboys
Download or read book Protected Area Governance and Management written by Graeme L. Worboys and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2015-04-08 with total page 993 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protected Area Governance and Management presents a compendium of original text, case studies and examples from across the world, by drawing on the literature, and on the knowledge and experience of those involved in protected areas. The book synthesises current knowledge and cutting-edge thinking from the diverse branches of practice and learning relevant to protected area governance and management. It is intended as an investment in the skills and competencies of people and consequently, the effective governance and management of protected areas for which they are responsible, now and into the future. The global success of the protected area concept lies in its shared vision to protect natural and cultural heritage for the long term, and organisations such as International Union for the Conservation of Nature are a unifying force in this regard. Nonetheless, protected areas are a socio-political phenomenon and the ways that nations understand, govern and manage them is always open to contest and debate. The book aims to enlighten, educate and above all to challenge readers to think deeply about protected areas—their future and their past, as well as their present. The book has been compiled by 169 authors and deals with all aspects of protected area governance and management. It provides information to support capacity development training of protected area field officers, managers in charge and executive level managers.
