Un Área de Designación Internacional (ADI) es un área natural reconocida internacionalmente por un mecanismo de designación global o regional. De todos éstos, 263 son áreas con diferentes ADI solapadas total o parcialmente, con lo que tienen designaciones internacionales dobles, triples o incluso cuádruples. Estas áreas se denominan Áreas de Designación Internacional Múltiple (ADIM) a efectos de la presente publicación.

The main purpose of this Study is to serve as contribution to policy review and reforms by documenting and analysing the existing schemes of governance of local forests in the region. Further, the methodology applied in this Regional Study and the experiences made are expected to contribute to the further development of the IUCN Nature Resource Governance Framework by providing practical test cases from a specific region.

The purpose of this study has been to collect insights into corporate ‘water stewardship’ based on exchanges of information and views with representatives of private companies, public agencies, NGOs and other organisations involved in corporate water management.
