Guidelines for marine protected areas
    Kelleher, Graeme

Creation and effective management of marine protected areas (MPAs) have lagged behind those of protected areas on land, but they are just as important. The world urgently needs a comprehensive system of MPAs to conserve biodiversity and to help rebuild the productivity of the oceans. The aim of these guidelines is to help countries establish systems of MPAs as a key component of integrated management of coastal and marine areas and as part of their sustainable development. The various actions to make an effective MPA are set out, from early planning stages to implementation. These guidelines aim to help policy-makers, planners and field managers, whether working on conservation of nature or sustainable use of marine resources
Evaluating environmental education
    Aert, Lisette van | Kaskens, Anneke | Meijberg, Wiem | Stokking, Karel

This book begins with an example of a field education centre, explains the purpose of evaluation, and outlines the thirteen steps behind the evaluation process. It also looks at the broader principle of how evaluation can be introduced as a regular activity in an organisation. It details the steps to follow in undertaking evaluation of environmental education programmes. This handbook is a useful source book for managers of non-formal environmental education programmes in protected areas, environment centres, field study centres, botanical gardens, nuseums or historic and cultural centres

Marketing produktow ekologicznych w polnocno-wschodniej Polsce
    Metera, Dorota | Bednarek, Andrzej

In the European Union methods of farm production in accordance with the demands of environmental protection and conservation of landscape are regulated by the European Council. Several Polish regional and national programs are planned, regarding mainly the protection of biodiversity on farmlands, promotion of organic agriculture, soil erosion prevention and counteraction, as well as the depopulation of agricultural regions. The development of organic agriculture in Poland depends on the possibilities for the sale of its products. The organization of farmers into marketing groups helps strengthen their market position

African elephant database 1998
    Barnes, R. F. W. | Craig, G. C. | Dublin, Holly T. | Overton, Greg L. | Simons, W. | Thouless, C. R.

The African elephant is the largest living land mammal. It once inhabited most of the continent, from the Mediterranean coast down to its south tip. This picture of elephant range today is one of scattered, fragmented populations south of the Sahara Desert. Estimates suggested that elephant populations had more than halved in several areas between 1981-87. Partly as a result of the controversy that surrounds the question of trade in ivory, there is a persistent desire for regular updates on the status of elephant populations, particularly at the continental level. The African Elephant Database is a computerised information system that stores population estimates and associated geographic information for the African elephant, Loxodonta africana. This new edition contains updates made available to the IUCN/SSC African Elephant Specialist Group during 1996-98. Where no updates were available, estimates and range information from the previous edition have been retained
African rhino : status survey and conservation action plan
    Brooks, Martin | Emslie, Richard

The black and the white rhinoceros have become flagship species for international conservation. They are significant not only for the continuation of a major evolutionary heritage, but also as symbols for the protection of African savannahs. The battle for the survival of these species has been marked by some notable successes and sadly, many failures, and the situation is still critical. The international horn trade ban and the domestic bans imposed in most traditional user states have driven the trade further "underground", in some cases inflating prices and making illegal dealing even more lucrative. This plan is aimed at donors, government and non-government organisations, and all those involved in rhino conservation. It oulines the actions and strategies needed to catalyse support for these majestic animals, and help secure their future in sub-Saharan Africa. The overall conclusion is that, given the political will, stability and adequate field expenditure, rhinos can be conserved in the wild
