Produktbeschreibung
Marine resources in Wakatobi MNP are heavily relied
upon for food, raw materials and income. There is
currently concern over the deterioration of the more
accessible areas of reef, mangrove and seagrass. One
reason why past conservation initiatives have failed
is lack of compliance of local people to management
regulations. This is due largely to actual,
perceived, or expected, economic losses to
communities. A key role of management should be to
maintain or improve the economic status of local
people. This work uses the Kaledupa sub-district to
provide a detailed case study of a small island
community with high natural resource dependence. The
book details natural resource use patterns and the
extensive local complexities that must be understood
for any chance of management success, it also
highlights the importance of marine resources to the
local economy. A series of economic performance
criteria are identified to be used in the
development of appropriate management plans that aim
to maintain ecological wealth and develop
sustainable utilisation, whilst maintaining or
improving the economic status of local user groups.
