La diversidad hace la diferencia : acciones para asegurar la equidad de género en la aplicación del Convenio de la diversidad biológica

Los objetivos de este libro son resaltar la importancia de la diversidad en toda la extensión del término, al visibilizar y ejemplificar las relaciones que establecen, en forma diferencial las mujeres y los hombres con la naturaleza y sus consecuencias para la promoción del desarrollo. El documento se enfoca fundamentalmente, en reconocer el Convenio de Diversidad Biológica (CDB) y las Estrategias Nacionales de Biodiversidad (ENB) como mecanismos de participación y concientización de nuestras sociedades, en la construcción de una nueva forma de relación entre los seres humanos y su medio.

Raíz y vuelo : el uso sostenible de los recursos naturales vivientes en Mesoamérica

Proposes an overview of the concept of sustainable use, drawing from the growing body of literature concerned with common property resources, ecosystem management and community based natural resource management. It also provides a synoptic account of the state of living natural resources in Mesoamerica, taking into account the efforts undertaken in situ and ex situ Conservation. It also addresses many of the drivers that are affecting the management and final use of natural resources, with particular emphasis on traditional knowledge systems and community based natural resource management. A final section analyses the range of on-going experiences in the local se and management of natural resources, including forest resources, non timber forest products, wildlife and coastal and marine resources. It is hoped that this state of the art review will serve as a reference for future conservation and sustainable use efforts in the Mesoamerican region.

The status of natural resources on the high-seas

This publication deals in two distinct parts with the status of our natural resources on the high-seas (approximately 50 per cent of the Earth's surface) which contain open-access common resources. Part 1 identifies and reviews a certain number of relatively discrete or localised geographic features/habitats/biological communities that have particular scientific, societal or economic interest. The report assesses the existing or potential threats to them, and proceeds to qualify their potential value as High-Seas Marine Protected Areas. Part 2 explores some of the legal, political and institutional issues relevant to the possible establishment of Marine Protected Areas.

The TRIPS agreement, sustainable development and the public interest : discussion paper

This paper addresses the environmental and developmental impacts of patent protection by specifically focusing on the global agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS). While the TRIPS agreement serves as an important step in harmonizing international intellectual property systems, the author contends that it currently fails to properly balance public and private interests, especially in the gap between rich and poor. This thoughtful paper can serve as a base from which to debate a serious issue and suggest proposals for reform.
