Section A covers the protected areas policy (rationale and intended outcomes of a protected areas strategy, who will prepare and benefit from the strategy), framework (vision, goals, and principles of the strategy) and steps in implementing the strategy (including identification of priority areas of interest, evaluation of candidate areas, approval and designation of areas, and subsequent implementation, monitoring, and review). Section B contains an action plan for establishing priorities, reviewing conservation mechanisms, area identification and evaluation, resource assessment, interim protection, third party compensation, and forming partnerships. Section C provides supporting documents including a reference guide to mechanisms for establishing and managing protected areas, a review of progress in protected area establishment, summaries of provisions in land claims agreements relating to protected areas, and information on resource potential assessment methodology. Includes glossary.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe traditional patterns of land use that have created many of the world's cultural landscapes contribute to biodiversity, support ecological processes, provide important environmental services, and have proven sustainable over the centuries. Protected landscapes can serve as living models of sustainable use of land and resources, and offer important lessons for sustainable development. Examples of these landscapes and the diverse strategies needed to maintain this essential relationship between people and the land are provided.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThere are growing pressures on undeveloped (wild) places in the Circumpolar North. Among them are pressures for economic development, oil and gas exploration and extraction, development of geothermal energy resources, development of heavy industry close to energy sources, and lack of appreciation for "other" orientations toward wilderness resources by interested parties from broad geographical origins. An international seminar in Anchorage, Alaska, in May of 2001, was the first step in providing basic input to an analysis of the primary set of values associated with Circumpolar North wilderness and the constraints and contributors (factors of influence) that either limit or facilitate receipt of those values to various segments of society.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKHow do Indigenous communities in Canada balance the development needs of a growing population with cultural commitments and responsibilities as stewards of their lands and waters? Caring for Eeyou Istchee recounts the extraordinary experience of the James Bay Cree community of Wemindji, Quebec, who partnered with a multi-disciplinary research team to protect a territory of great cultural significance in ways that respect community values and circumstances. By addressing fundamental questions such as what should be protected and how, Indigenous and non-Indigenous partners reveal how protected area creation presents a powerful vehicle for Indigenous stewardship, biological conservation, and cultural heritage protection.
