Regional action plan for protected areas in South Asia : Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka
   

The South Asia Regional Action Plan was prepared through a collective effort by all countries in the region, and represents an agreed view of regional priorities, addressing such topics as training, transboundary protected areas and community involvements in protected areas management. The plan begins with an overview of protected areas in the region, including numbers, coverage, policies and legislation, administration and threats. This is followed by a section on proposals for action and a clear definition of the role to be played by WCPA South Asia.

Polar bears : proceedings of the twelfth Working meeting of the IUCN/SSC Polar Bear Specialist Group, 3-7 February 1997, Oslo, Norway
    Derocher, Andrew E. | Garner, Gerald W. | Lunn, Nicholas J. | Wiig, Oystein

These 12th proceedings provide an overview of the ongoing research and management activities on polar bears on the circumpolar Arctic. Together with the previous proceedings, they provide an historic record of the international effort in protecting polar bears from over-harvest, and document more recent concerns of threats arising as a consequence of increased human activities in both the Arctic and in regions far beyond the realm of polar bears. Research and management issues pertaining to polar bears are becoming increasingly more complex. Two of the most important current concerns are the impacts of toxic chemicals and the potential impacts of global climate change. Extensive discussions during the meeting provided new opportunities for international cooperation on these issues

Economic values of protected areas : guidelines for protected area managers
   

This guide illustrates the potential for using valuation as a tool for diversifying the funding structure for protected areas and for providing information about stakeholders which is crucial for effective management. It provides information and examples of how economic valuation tools and methodologies have been and can be applied to protected areas and is intended to enable protected area managers to determine how they can use valuation as a tool for conserving, sustainably using, and equitably sharing biological resources and to enable economists to help fulfil those goals

Climate, biodiversity, and forests : issues and opportunities emerging from the Kyoto protocol
    Brown, Paige

Over past decades, two global environmental issues "biodiversity loss and climate change" have often moved in wholly unconnected domains, with no link being made between the fate of unknown species in the Amazon rainforest and emissions of carbon dioxide from power plants in industrialized countries. However, results now show that climate change is a major threat to efforts to conserve biodiversity. This report is a result of collaboration between WRI and IUCN examining why the role of forests and land-use change under the Kyoto Protocol remains controversial, and attempts to clarify and separate the issues. It concludes with recommendations that will help ensure that decision taken by the Conference of the Parties lead to the best possible environmental outcome.
