The Ecosystem Approach puts people and their natural resource use practices squarely at the centre of decision-making. Because of this, the Ecosystem Approach can be used to seek a balance between the conservation and use of biological diversity.
An environmental flow is the water regime provided within a river, wetland or coastal zone to maintain ecosystems and their benefits where there are competing water uses and where flows are regulated.
This guide aims to provide practical tools to non specialists essentially water resources planners, river basin managers, non-governmental organizations and private sector operators.

With climate change now a certainty, the question is now how much change there will be and what can be done about it. One of the answers is through adaptation. Many of the lessons that are being learned in adaptation are from success stories from the field.

With a large percentage of the worlds population moving to urban areas, clean, affordable and timely supply of drinking and domestic water to its residents has become a priority.
The book illustrates that sacred natural sites, although often under threat, exist within and outside formally recognised protected areas, heritage sites. Sacred natural sites may well be some of the last strongholds for building resilient networks of connected landscapes.
The report reflects the progress made by BBP last year. The stories selected are a balanced representation of BBP's work in 2009 to deliver the IUCN programme for 2009-2012.
Recent studies have brought to light a series of interacting and complex relationships, many with negative feedback loops, between HIV/AIDS and the environment. A comprehensive examination of these relationships and analyses of the quality and breadth of the evidence are lacking.
