Un des défis auxquels la conservation des grands singes doit faire face est linteraction croissante entre les humains et les grands singes, et les conflits que cela génère. Il est impératif de développer une compréhension détaillée des situations de conflit actuelles et potentielles et leurs impacts présents et futurs à la fois sur les grands singes et les humains. Cela nécessitera lintégration de données qualitatives et quantitatives sur les aspects multiples des comportements des humains et des grands singes et de leur écologie. Il sagira également de bien comprendre comment les populations locales perçoivent cette situation. Une telle compréhension peut ensuite être utilisée pour développer des stratégies de gestion efficaces et adaptées localement pour prévenir ou diminuer les conflits entre humains et grands singes, tout en respectant à la fois les objectifs de la conservation et les contextes socio-économiques et culturels. Ces lignes directrices décrivent une séquence détapes logiques qui devraient être prises en compte avant toute intervention dans les conflits entre humains et grands singes ; elles proposent également des contre-mesures possibles à utiliser dans la gestion des conflits entre humains et grands singes.
Les menaces conjuguées auxquelles font actuellement face les derniers grands singes appellent des mesures de conservation immédiates à tous les niveaux — des initiatives portant sur des sites particuliers aux conventions et plans d'action internationaux, en passant par les stratégies nationales et régionales. Le présent document décrit les approches actuelles en matière d'étude et de suivi des grands singes pour les biologistes de terrain, les administrateurs daires protégées, les services gouvernementaux responsables de la faune et la communauté de la conservation dans son ensemble. Il contient des informations supplémentaires précises sur la conception d'une étude, les méthodes de terrain, les approches analytiques et les considérations pratiques telles que la logistique, les finances et l'établissement de rapports normalisés.
It is sometimes assumed that protected areas must be in conflict with the rights and traditions of indigenous and other traditional peoples on their domains. In reality, where indigenous peoples are interested in the conservation and traditional use of their lands, waters, territories and the natural and cultural resources that they contain, conflicts need not arise. Formal protected areas can provide a means to recognise and guarantee the efforts of many communities who have long protected certain areas, such as sacred groves and mountains. This publication provides a framework for developing partnerships between indigenous and other traditional peoples and protected area managers. It contains a number of case studies giving examples from different parts of the world on successful experiences on the application of these principles
Provides guidance for local stakeholder, managers and policy makers on appropriate management approaches for coral reefs that have been severely degraded through bleaching or other causes. The widespread bleaching event in the western Indian Ocean in 1998-9 provides a general case study that will result in recommendations of value to reef managers in all regions
The Convention on Biological Diversity’s Ecosystem Approach is a strategy for the integrated management of land, water, and living resources to promote conservation and sustainable use in an equitable way. It is the primary framework for such action under the CBD and it contains 12 core principles. The Ecosystem Approach Sourcebook contains a Beginner’s Guide, Advanced Guide, Tools and resources, a Case Study Database, and Operational guidance for applying the 12 principles of the Ecosystem Approach.

These Guidelines define terms and set out guidance on the justification, design, and implementation of any reintroduction or conservation translocation, including (i) reinforcement and reintroduction within a species’ indigenous range, and (ii) conservation introductions, comprising assisted colonisation and ecological replacement, outside a species’ indigenous range. The Guidelines focus on conservation translocations, namely a translocation that yields quantifiable conservation benefit. For this purpose, the beneficiaries should be the population or the ecosystem of the translocated species. Translocation needs rigorous justification. Feasibility assessment should include a balance of the conservation benefits against the costs and risks of both the translocation and alternative conservation actions. There are multiple risks in a translocation, affecting the focal species, their associated communities and ecosystem functions in both source and destination areas; there are also risks around human concerns. Any proposed translocation should have a comprehensive risk assessment.
How to use
Botanic Gardens Conservation International and the International Association of Botanic Gardens have jointly published the BGCI and IABG Recovery Manual for Plants to guide projects on plant species recovery. The manual sets out the aims and purpose of species recovery and the steps involved, and indicates good practice. The manual is aimed at conservation practitioners but also includes comprehensive bibliographic references, which enable more in depth reading on the topics covered.
The GSPC – A Plan to Save the World’s Plant Species – highlights the importance of plants and the ecosystem services they provide for all life on earth, and aims to ensure their conservation. The GSPC includes 16 targets for plant conservation. An updated GSPC was formally adopted at the 10th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the CBD.
