"Community Conservation in Practice" Workshop Report Available

The report from the Community Conservation in Practice workshop, held May 6-8, 2010, in Tofino, is now available online. The workshop, which Natural Justice attended, provided an opportunity for people from Indigenous peoples and local communities, non-governmental organizations, academia, and funding institutions from around the world to come together to discuss the current strengths of and threats to Indigenous and community conserved areas (ICCAs), sacred natural sites, and biocultural landscapes. The workshop was facilitated by the Global Diversity Foundation in collaboration with IUCN Commission for Environmental, Economic, and Social Policy (CEESP) and the IUCN World Commission on Protected Areas (WCPA).
