Speaking a common language : the uses and performances of the IUCN system of management categories for protected areas (Russian edition)

The system of protected area management categories lies at the centre of IUCN's work and its mission; their effective use is of fundamental concern to the Union and its members. This project has looked at the successes, failures, strengths and weaknesses of the categories after a decade of use, with the intention of giving guidance on steps needed to improve their future effectiveness in response to changing needs and conditions.

Глобальный план действий в отношении видов

The Global Species Action Plan (GSAP) is a critical initiative developed to support the implementation of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), to address the increasing biodiversity loss worldwide. The GSAP outlines strategic interventions and actions to conserve and sustainably manage species while ensuring equitable benefits. Emphasizing the critical role of species in ecosystem stability, human livelihoods, and cultural heritage, the GSAP seeks to prevent extinctions, reduce threats, and ensure equitable benefits from species use. Implementation involves diverse stakeholders, including governments, Indigenous peoples and Local communities, NGOs, academia, and businesses, fostering cooperation at global, regional, and local levels. The GSAP underscores the collective responsibility to safeguard Earth’s rich biological heritage for future generations.

Руководство и методическое пособие по оценке воздействия в контексте Всемирного наследия

As the World Heritage Convention celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2022, over 1100 sites around the world are recognized as World Heritage – places  that are so valuable to humanity that there conservation has been deemed our collective responsibility. Yet many of these exceptional places face  increasing pressure from diverse types of development projects within and around the sites. Assessing the impacts of such projects is essential to both prevent damage to World Heritage and identify sustainable options. This Guidance and toolkit explains the process for achieving these goals. Offering practical tips and tools including checklists and a glossary, it provides a framework for conducting impact assessments for cultural and natural heritage sites.

Руководство КВВ МСОП по конфликтам и сосуществованию человека и дикой природы : Первое издание

Поскольку конфликты между человеком и дикой природой становятся все более частыми, серьезными и широко распространенными во всем мире, их решение, как известно, является сложной задачей, и многие усилия, направленные на решение этих конфликтов, с трудом достигают прогресса. Данное Руководство является важной инструкцией для понимания и разрешения конфликтов между человеком и дикой природой. Цель Руководства – заложить основы и принципы передовой практики с ясными практическими рекомендациями по оптимальному решению конфликтов и обеспечению сосуществования с дикой природой. Они были разработаны для использования специалистами-практиками по охране природы, лидерами сообществ, лицами, принимающими решения, исследователями, правительственными чиновниками и другими лицами. Сосредоточенные на подходах и инструментах для анализа и принятия решений, они не ограничиваются каким-либо конкретным видом или регионом мира.

Microchiropteran bats : global status survey and conservation action plan

Bats make up a quarter of all mammals, and almost half of the species can be considered threatened or near threatened at a global level. This publication offers the results of the first comprehensive review to identify the conservation priorities for the 834 species of Microchiroptera. Rather than give an account of each of these species, this volume aims to be used as a basis for the development of more local or regional action plans, or actions for particular groups of bat species, by taxon or by habitat.

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.

Coastal forests of eastern Africa

The eastern African coastal strip contains a tiny chain of patches of lowland tropical dry forest. They were previously considered to be of low conservation priority in terms of endemism and species diverstiy, but research since the mid-1980s has shown that their biological richness is comparable to other important tropical forest types in Africa. This book defines these “Coastal Forests”, describes the physical environment which influences their formation, and summarises the latest available information on their species diversity and levels of endemism. Human impact on these forests is considered against current conservation efforts and needs. Finally, new proposals are put forward to ensure that the future of these forests is safe
