Ecosystems

La Liste Rouge des Écosystèmes de l’UICN est un nouveau cadre mondial pour surveiller l’état des écosystèmes. Elle fait partie d’une boîte à outils toujours en expansion qui sert à évaluer les risques encourus par la biodiversité et qui a pour but de servir d’appui aux politiques de conservation de la nature, à l’utilisation des ressources naturelles et aux décisions managériales en identifiant les écosystèmes qui présentent un risque élevé de perte de biodiversité.

La Lista Roja de Ecosistemas de UICN es un nuevo marco global para monitorear el estatus de los ecosistemas.

This introductory guide draws on a number of key IUCN Red List of Ecosystems (RLE) papers, case studies and background documents to provide a practical introduction to the RLE. It targets those who wish to gain a deeper understanding of the RLE as a risk assessment tool and those who wish to learn more about its possible applications in implementing conservation action.

4 retornos, 3 zonas, 20 años es un llamamiento para crear un marco holístico mediante un lenguaje común que promueva el establecimiento de asociaciones de restauración de ecosistemas entre agricultores y usuarios de la tierra, empresas, inversores, gobiernos,

4 returns, 3 zones, 20 years presents a holistic and practical business framework that uses a common language, and – based on science, technology and social stakeholder management tools -- aims to establish Ecosystem Restoration Partnerships between people living on the land, companies, investors, governments and business schools, to restore degraded ecosystems that gives multiple returns, while teaching practical lessons and reaching international restoration targets.

The IUCN Red List of Ecosystems is a global framework for monitoring the status of ecosystems. It is part of the growing toolbox for assessing risks to biodiversity and aims to support conservation, resource use, and management decisions by identifying ecosystems most at risk of biodiversity loss.

This report provides the findings of biodiversity resource inventory of Bhadaure Tamagi VDC of Kaski district of Western Nepal, with clear mapping of all important ecosystems, including forest, agriculture, wetland and bodies of water.

In the effort towards sustainability, it has become increasingly important to develop conceptual frames to understand the dynamics of social and ecological systems. Drawing on complex systems theory, this book investigates how human societies deal with change in linked social-ecological systems, and build capacity to adapt to change. The concept of resilience is central in this context.

This publication presents 18 case studies to demonstrate how Protected Areas (PAs) can be better managed for disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA). The chapters vary from scientific studies to good practices, as well as (existing or required) policy frameworks that enable appropriate management. The book presents approaches from different regions and aims to cover a range of hazard events as well as a variety of ecosystem types.
