Es importante integrar las consideraciones relativas a la biodiversidad en la localización y el diseño de hoteles y complejos turísticos para mantener a largo plazo no sólo la viabilidad y conservación de los ecosistemas sino también el éxito financiero de dichos hoteles y complejos.
Intégrer les questions de biodiversité dans les décisions relatives à l'implantation et à la conception d'hôtels et de complexes hôteliers est important non tant pour la conservation et le maintien de la viabilité des écosystèmes, que pour la réussite financière à long terme des hôtels et des complexes hôteliers.
Integrating biodiversity considerations into siting and design decisions for hotel and resort developments is important not only for the continued viability and conservation of the ecosystems, but also for the long-term financial success of the hotels and resorts.
A symposium on community-based natural resource management (CBNRM) for the conservation of CITES-listed species was organized by the Austrian Ministry of the Environment and the European Commission in Vienna, Austria, in May 2010. Its aim was to provide the necessary knowledge base for a broad policy discussion within the European Union on the relevance of local conservation programmes for CITES to achieve the goals as set out in its current Strategic Vision 2008-2013 (Res. Conf. 14.2).
The workbook is designed to allow for a dynamic process of marine protected area (MPA) management based on the lessons learnt through piloting the first draft of the workbook in eight MPAs in Kenya, Tanzania and the Seychelles. It takes into account the management issues faced in the WIO, is cost effective and encourages self-assessment by the managers. The Workbook has a complementary website (www.wiomsa.org\mpaworkbook.htm) and CD ROM.
This report represents a summary and analysis of work that has been carried out over the past decade or so, to assess and implement the environmental flow requirements of four river basins in Tanzania. These basins are the Pangani, Great Ruaha, Wami and the Mara (shared with Kenya).
This workbook was produced in order to test and adapt the World Commission on Protected Areas (WCPA) methodologies for use at marine protected areas (MPAs) in the Western Indian Ocean. The workbook is designed to allow for a dynamic process of MPA management based on the lessons learnt from pilot assessments in Kenya, Tanzania and the Seychelles.
This report provides results of testing the Workbook for Assessing Management Effectiveness of Marine Protected Areas in the Western Indian Ocean at eight pilot sites in three countries. The assessment looks at not only the impacts but also the effectiveness of the management process. It does not require the collection of new data, unless that can be done quickly but provides a "snap-shot" of management effectiveness at a particular point in time, with recommendations for improvement.
