Strategic planning

El Marco Estratégico para el Desarrollo de Capacidades (MEDC) es el resultado de un amplio programa de actividades y consultas llevadas a cabo durante 2013 y 2015, incluyendo  el Congreso Mundial de Parques  de Sídney celebrado en Australia noviembre de 2014. El MEDC tiene el objetivo de complementar, guiar y ampliar las recomendaciones  relativas al desarrollo de capacidades  incluidas en el Compromiso de Sídney que resultó del Congreso.

The Strategic Framework for Capacity Development (SFCD) is the result of a widespread programme of activities and consultations during 2013 and 2015, including the World Parks Congress in Sydney Australia in November 2014. The SFCD is intended to complement, guide, and extend the recommendations on capacity development included in the Promise of Sydney that resulted from the Congress.

Conservation of animal genetic resources -- ensuring that these valuable resources remain available for future use by livestock breeders -- is one of the four strategic priority areas of the Global Plan of Action for Animal Genetic Resources, which was adopted in 2007 and is the first internationally agreed framework for the management of biodiversity in the livestock sector. These guidelines focus on conservation "in vivo", i.e.

Ce rapport présente les résultats de deux études thématiques: d’une part le potentiel écologique pour l'identification des corridors dans la zone APT (Aire Protégée Transfrontalière) du Mayombe et, d’autre part, le potentiel écologique pour la délimitation d’AP (Aires Protégées) au sein même de l’APT (Aire Protégée Transfrontalière) du Mayombe.

A elaboração do Plano estratégico dos ecossistemas florestais do Mayombe está baseada na estrutura geral utilizada no Plano estratégico da Rede das áreas protegidas transfronteiriças do Albertine Rift Central (2006). No entanto, este documento está adaptado és condições especificas, as ameaças e prioridades identificadas, e a disponibilidade das informações sobre a iniciativa florestal do Mayombe. A fase inicial desta iniciativa também está tomada em conta.

This strategic plan is adapted to the Mayombe forest initiative’s specific conditions, identified threats and priorities, and information availability. Lessons learned from other experience of other TFCAs/TPAs in the region were also assimilated.

L'élaboration du Plan stratégique transfrontalier des écosystèmes forestiers du Mayombe est basée sur la structure générale utilisée dans le Plan stratégique du Réseau des aires protégées transfrontalières du Rift Albertin central (2006). Toutefois, ce document est adapté aux conditions spécifiques, aux menaces et prioritées identifiées, et à la disponibilité des informations concernant l'initiative forestière du Mayombe.

This publication provides a glimpse into the often intricate knowledge systems that pastoralists and smallholder farmers have developed for the management of their breeds in specific production systems. It also describes the multitude of threats and challenges these often marginalized communities have to cope with and suggests interventions that can sustain valuable human-animal-environment relationships and combine conservation of breeds and their ecosystems with poverty alleviation.

These guidelines describe, in logical chronological order, the process of establishing a programme for cryoconservation of animal genetic resources, starting with the process of confirming the decision to implement a cryoconservation programme. The task of organizing the institutions needed to meet the chosen conservation objectives is then described.
