Aquaculture production has very significantly increased in tonnage and value over the last decades. It is seen as a potential solution to replace the declining wild fishery stocks.
This situation analysis presents a thorough, evidence-based examination of the relationship between wildlife and zoonosis, wildlife and emerging human pathogens and associated diseases, their origins, drivers, and risk factors. There is considerable divergence of opinion around the subject both within and outside the biodiversity conservation community and given the ontological challenges and highly different perspectives, contradictory narrative is unsurprising.
Dieser Richtlinie soll dazu beitragen, die Erhaltung und das Management des Geo-Naturerbes und der Geodiversität in Schutz- und Erhaltungsgebieten zu verbessern und die Zusammenhänge und Wechselwirkungen mit biologischen Merkmalen und Prozessen zu erkennen. Sie sind kein Lehrbuch für das Management des Schutzes des Geo-Naturerbes, sondern stellen vielmehr den wesentlichen Hintergrund, den Kontext und die Prinzipien dar.
Estas Diretrizes destinam-se a ajudar a melhorar a conservação e gestão do patrimônio geológico e da geodiversidade em áreas protegidas e a promover o reconhecimento das inter-relações e interações com aspectos e processos biológicos. Não se trata de um livro sobre práticas de gestão de geoconservação, mas antes uma apresentação dos antecedentes, contexto e princípios essenciais.
Increasing interest in measuring, modelling and valuing ecosystem services (ES), the benefits that ecosystems provide to people, has resulted in the development of an array of ES assessment tools in recent years. Selecting an appropriate tool for measuring and modelling ES can be challenging.
In November 2018, Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity adopted at the 14th Conference of the Parties a definition of an "other effective area-based conservation measure" (OECM) as well as guiding principles, common characteristics and criteria for identification of OECMs (CBD/COP/DEC/14/8). OECMs may be managed for many different objectives but they must deliver effective conservation.
Este informe Conflicto y conservación se centra en los conflictos armados y la naturaleza. El tema es muy oportuno, ya que los conflictos armados causan grandes daños económicos y sociales, así como daños ambientales en todo el mundo. Los conflictos han llevado a sociedades a sus límites en términos de recursos financieros y humanos. Se han perdido y perturbado vidas y bienes, se han destruido medios de subsistencia y personas han sido desplazadas.
Ce rapport Conflit et conservation met l’accent sur les conflits armés et la nature. Le sujet est tout à fait opportun, car les conflits armés causent de graves dommages économiques et sociaux, ainsi que des dommages environnementaux, partout dans le monde. Les conflits ont poussé les sociétés à leurs limites en termes de ressources financières et humaines. Des vies et des biens ont été perdus et perturbés, des moyens de subsistance détruits et des personnes déplacées.
This summary for policy makers synthesises key issues, findings and recommendations from IUCN’s Gender-based violence and environment linkages: the violence of inequality (Castañeda et al., 2020).
Connectivity conservation is essential for managing healthy ecosystems, conserving biodiversity and adapting to climate change across all biomes and spatial scales. Well-connected ecosystems support a diversity of ecological functions such as migration, hydrology, nutrient cycling, pollination, seed dispersal, food security, climate resilience and disease resistance.
