Utilisation des outils d’évaluation IMET et SAPA pour identifier les priorités d’interventions dans la Réserve de la Bouche du Roy
La réserve de Biosphère de la Bouche du Roy est créée en 2017 pour protéger les écosystèmes de mangroves et côtiers situés dans le site RAMSAR 1017 au Bénin et se compose de plusieur sites dont celui de la Bouche du Roy. Elle abrite une population humaine de plus de 25.000 habitants qui dépendent en grande majorité de l’exploitation des ressources naturelles pour leur survie. La réussite des actions de conservation représente donc un vrai défi. Nous avons donc initié l’évaluation de l’efficacité de gestion et celle des impacts sociaux en vue d’apprécier les grands impacts sur la biodiversité et sur le bien être des communautés locales au niveau du site Bouche du Roy. Ces évaluations réalisées avec le soutien du fonds d’action du BIOPAMA ont montré le gap existant en matière de suivi de la biodiversité, de personnel technique, de ressources financières et d’actions de développement local. Partant de ces insuffisances, un plan d’action prioritaire a été élaboré pour réduire les gap identifiés tout en confortant les acquis.
Agriculture and conservation
In 2021, IUCN launched the IUCN Flagship Report Series, to help demonstrate the importance of conserving nature for human well-being and all life on Earth. This report, the second in the series, focuses on agriculture and nature. The interactions, synergies, and tradeoffs between the two sit at the heart of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which calls for ending hunger and ensuring food security while also mandating the protection and restoration of nature. Whether the two can be achieved simultaneously, and if so how, are crucial questions for humanity and our planet. IUCN therefore explores the positive and negative relationships between agriculture and nature conservation and mobilises new modelling approaches to examine both imperatives within a range of realistic policies.

With 26 case studies from 10 multinational companies, this publication highlights their positive actions, interventions and initiatives contributing to specific conservation and restoration goals. The concrete examples illustrate a pivotal part of their work which have direct impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem on their sites and operations, focused on a variety of additional and proactive biodiversity conservation and restoration actions more commonly within the landscape and seascape. The different case studies seek to present current voluntary practices and initiatives that are above and beyond addressing the negative impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services onsite. While not exhaustive, these case studies seek to be illustrative of current voluntary practices and demonstrative of some of the kinds of initiatives that are currently being carried out.

Nature (covering the water, biodiversity, soil/land, and air/climate realms) continues to decline with significant negative impacts on society. Businesses need to understand their impacts and dependencies on nature, manage their nature-related risks and embed the value of nature into their decision making to identify and implement opportunities that contribute towards the nature-positive global goal. Achieving nature-positive requires collective action across sectors, value chains and landscapes. Fundamentally, nature-positive represents a systemic and transformative shift rather than ‘re-shaping’ of current practices. Utilising prioritisation approaches can enable businesses to identify areas where they can have a material and meaningful contribution from the outset as systemic and transformative change is adopted through the business.

The objectives of this manual are: to help the managers and management authorities of cultural and natural World Heritage properties to reduce the risks to these properties from natural and humanmade disasters; to illustrate the main principles of Disaster Risk Management (DRM) for heritage and a methodology to identify, assess and mitigate disaster risks; to explain how to prepare a DRM plan based on this methodology; to demonstrate that heritage can play a positive role in reducing risks from disasters; and to suggest how DRM plans for heritage properties can be integrated with national and regional disaster management strategies and plans.
Preparing World Heritage nominations : second edition (Chinese)
The manual is based on the version of the “Operational Guidelines for the Implementation of the World Heritage Convention” dated August 2011 and seeks to complement it. In particular, the manual seeks to support States Parties in implementing the World Heritage Convention and to provide guidance and knowledge that will help ensure a credible World Heritage List of well-managed properties of Outstanding Universal Value. it is hoped that the manual will help States Parties to carefully consider the implications of proceeding with World Heritage nominations and take the necessary steps to ensure that the effort is worthwhile for both the conservation of the property and the well-being of local communities and other local stakeholders.
