IUCN

A knowledge management study carried out for IUCN. For more than five decades IUCN has used its knowledge to lead and guide conservation thinking around the world. Through its knowledge networks comprised of Commissions and Members, supported by the Secretariat, IUCN has built a remarkable reputation based on its ability to generate, mobilise and provide sound scientific and technical knowledge and advice towards the changes it wants to see in the world.

This publication compiles the diary of Paolo Videsott, one of the founders of IUCN and a major figure in nature conservation in Italy, written during his imprisonment by Nazis between 1943 and 1945, and correspondence written between 1981 and 2006.

Contains articles on human-wildlife conflict written by presenters and participants of the workshop "Creating coexistence between humans and wildlife: global perspectives on local efforts to address human-wildlife conflict" at the 5th (fifth) IUCN World Parks Congress.
