Managing marine protected areas : a toolkit for the Western Indian Ocean
   

With more than 70 individual sites, nationally and internationally designated, in the Western Indian Ocean, there is a growing need to ensure and improve the management effectiveness of the marine protected areas. This toolkit aims to act as a first point of call in the search for information on issues that MPA managers and practitioners face in day-to-day operations. Designed as a hands-on guide, the toolkit consists of a ring-binder of 78 theme sheets, each of which addresses a key issue, problem or situation faced by an MPA manager. Divided into two section – the management process and conservation and sustainable use – it is applicable to many areas outside of Eastern Africa as well as the 10 states of the Western Indian Ocean and seabord of Eastern Africa.

Cross-border fishing and fish trade on Lake Victoria
    Heck, Simon | Ikwaput, Joyce | Kirema-Mukasa, Caroline T. | Lwenya, Caroline | Murakwa, Dorothy N. | Odongkara, Konstantine | Onyango, Paul O. | Owino, John P. | Sobo, Fatma

The views of border fishing communities and their leaders on the challenges and opportunities for improved fisheries management at the international border areas on Lake Victoria are documented. The report is based on discussions with fishing communities and district leaders in the Kenya-Uganda, Kenya-Tanzania and Tanzania-Uganda border areas, carried out from 22 to 29 April and 5 to 12 June 2002. Based on these views, the study presents conclusions and recommendations for discussion by the Lake Victoria Fisheries Organisation Statutory Committees.
Gestion communautaire des ressources naturelles dans la région de l'IGAD
    Awimbo, Janet | Barrow, Edmund G. C. | Karaba, Maina

IGAD and IUCN-EARO collaborated to develop a Community Based Natural Resource Management (CBNRM) project for the IGAD region. As a result six detailed country studies were undertaken for Djibouti, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Sudan and Uganda, and a regional analysis. Country and regional workshops were convened to deliberate and agree on the major issues and activities. This book describes CBNRM activities in the six countries for the first time in some details, discusses some of the regional issues and shared ecosystems which such an approach could address, as well as describing some of the major challenges (security over natural resources, risk, drought for example, as well as perverse policies and incentives). Many interesting case studies are described which will be of interest more widely in Africa, and demonstrates the importance of natural resources as a key livelihood asset in the Horn of Africa

The ecosystem approach : five steps to implementation
    Shepherd, Gill

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. This publication provides practical guidance on how to use the Ecosystem Approach in planning field activities. By helping stakeholders to identify and understand the processes of change in their ecosystem, it enables them to plan adaptive management strategies with which to face a sustainable future.

Smernica pre manazmentové kategóri chránených územi : interpretácia a vyuzitie manazmentových kategórií chránených územi v Európe
   

The IUCN system for classifying protected areas distinguishes six management categories (I-VI). This publication aims to further clarify how they can be interpreted within Europe, in order to help protected areas managers and others concerned with protected areas to apply the IUCN system more consistently to ensure reliable categorisation and data gathering
Incorporating marine protected areas into integrated coastal and ocean management : principles and guidelines
    Belfiore, Stefano | Cicin-Sain, Biliana | Ehler, Charles

The principles and guidelines developed by IUCN and NOAA are addressed to marine protected areas and coastal managers and are intended to promote better understanding and recognition of the linkages between MPAs and the wider coastal and marine area and of the need to establish effective incentives and institutional arrangements to manage marine protected areas in the broader context of integrated coastal and ocean management frameworks. The guidelines also suggest ways to implement, in an enhanced way, existing management tools to improve the incorporation of MPAs into the planning and management of coastal and marine areas.
