Editorial Reviews
Book Description
During the year 2000 case studies were presented at workshops on the Ecosystem Approach that were held in Southern Africa, South America and Southeast Asia. This summary and analysis of workshop discussions and case studies is intended to be a resource to assist implementation of Decision V/6 by Parties, the CBD Secretariat and all relevant stakeholders.The Ecosystem Approach is defined as a strategy for management of land, water and living resources that promotes conservation and sustainable use in an equitable way. It: * is designed to balance the three CBD objectives (conservation, sustainable use and equitable benefit sharing of genetic resources); * puts people at the centre of biodiversity management * extends biodiversity management beyond protected areas while recognizing that they are also vital for delivering CBD objectives; * engages the widest range of sectoral interest
