Abstract:

<p>Traditional forest reserves are protected natural forests established by ancestors to perform many socio-cultural functions and are protected in accordance to customary laws, not based on government legislation. These reserves generally have a long history with well preserved forests that could demonstrate what the surrounding environment could have looked liked, if humans had not altered it. Therefore, the traditional forest reserves might have significant ecological value and a potential high biodiversity. During February and March of 2009 a field study with semi-structured interviews and

Abstract:

A maior parte da biodiversidade global está concentrada nas florestas tropicais. Um dos principais fatores que ocasionam o desaparecimento dessa diversidade é a perda de hábitats pelas ações antrópicas, como o desmatamento e o crescimento urbano desordenado. Fragmentos florestais que possuem elevada biodiversidade, altas taxas de endemismo e fortes pressões antrópicas, são chamados de hotspots. A Floresta Atlântica é um dos hotspots brasileiros mais devastados. Por serem sensíveis as alterações do ambiente, as aves são consideradas importantes bioindicadores da qualidade dos ecossistemas.

A total of 2801 butterflies were trapped, which consisted of 28 species, representing five subfamilies of the Nymphalidae, with the most abundant and species rich subfamily being Charaxinae.

Abstract:

Conservation management of state-controlled forests has shifted away from strict, centralized management by incorporating community-based co-management initiatives. Often termed participatory forest management, these initiatives include local residents in forest planning, implementation, and management. This thesis examines two case studies located at the Arabuko-Sokoke Forest Reserve, Kenya. The case studies illustrate how imbalances of power establish participant (actor) roles through policies set by governments and NGOs. Power imbalances are perpetuated through hegemonies of postcolonialism

Abstract:

Rapid degradation of forest due to direct exploitation and conversion into other land uses is the major problem faced by the forestry sector of Sri Lanka. The negligence of the economics of environmental aspects is one of the major reasons for this problem. The timber value has widely been recognised as the only value held by forests, while many goods and services provided by forests are not being identified, quantified or valued. Conservation values of forests have not been evaluated either at local or global levels resulting in under-investment in conservation. Therefore, the valuing of yet

This study was designed to capture the complexity of man-to-forest relationships in the endangered, world-renowned tropical rain forests of the Congo Basin in Africa. Their biological complexity and integrity have been challenged by human development and new knowledge is urgently needed to save these forests and the people dependent on them. The scope of the study was enormous because of the complexity of the resource, the diversity of forest-dependent people and actors. The major benefit of this research was in accessing and exposing new and quantitative information in remote settlements of t

Abstract:

This research explores differences in environmental worldviews and connections to the land globally and more specifically in a case study of NGOs working in the Ecuadorian Cloud Forest. The aims of this project are to investigate different environmental worldviews expressed between western NGOs and non western local NGOs and to pose these questions 1) what environmental worldviews and ethics are at play in addressing conservation globally and specifically in the Cloud Forest of Ecuador? 2) How do these worldviews influence models for conservation? 3) How do locally-run projects differ from for

Abstract:

A floristic study of the Thicket vegetation in the Licmiti Forest Reserve, southern Mozambique, was undertaken. Observations on the structure and range of this unique vegetation type, its species composition, level of endemism and utilisation are provided. A literature review of the physical environment, soils, climate, vegetation and flora, as well as historical background, is presented. The Licuati Thicket covers an area of about 14 000 ha, which is about 35% of the 40 000 ha covered by the Licmiti Forest Reserve [LFR]. A study of satellite images and aerial photographs, taken over a

Abstract:

Indigenous forest resources are valuable to communities situated around them as they provide many different resources for their livelihoods. South Africa has only 0.5% of indigenous forest cover and most forests are surrounded by local communities who depend on them for resources. At Ongoye the forest was widely (91% of households) used for fuelwood. Community members denied harvesting the forest for either building or fencing poles, claiming they bought Eucalyptus poles from suppliers in the community. However, the harvesting intensities of pole size stems confirm that the user community does

Abstract:

In the past few years, initiatives to conserve the Earth's biodiversity began to change from strict protection to integrated conservation and development. The goal of these programs is to preserve biodiversity while improving the quality-of-life of the local residents who live in or around protected areas. Conservation and development projects focus on environmental education, sustainable utilization of natural resources and community development. They are often designed to provide economic returns from natural resources to local residents because it is assumed that the creation of a cash inco

Abstract:

Colonial conservation emerged as colonial conservationists perceived the threat of deforestation, climatic change and famine. The sense that there were limits to nature's capacity to meet human demands, led to colonial conservationism which portrayed nature as separated from human life. Protected areas (PA's), both forest and game reserves, were created that excluded local people in terms of both access and management. In South Africa the National Forests Act 84 of 1998 has created new conditions in which there is a greater opportunity for communities to benefit from indigenous forests, which
