Produced by an IUCN team working with the PNG Department of Environment and Conservation, this report underlines the urgent need to initiate appropriate strategic planning for regional development well before the cessation of current mining activities in the Fly River catchment area.
This report draws on lessons learned from observations made at seven case study sites, all of which permit economic activities, especially recreation, that are not harmful to the biological values and natural functions of the area. There is now a need to translate these experiences into policy instruments. The guidelines, summarised in some 20 pages, offer sound and well-documented advice on how to proceed.
