Historically, the conservation of forests and wildlife has focused
on the creation of national parks and reserves. However, only 9% of
protected areas are larger than 14,000 hectares, likely making them
too small to conserve ecosystem services and prevent loss of
wide-ranging keystone species such as elephant and leopard. New
approaches are needed that extend conservation beyond protected
area boundaries into areas where economic considerations prevail.
The book describes one such emerging model of conservation: the
integration of the private sector into partnerships to protect
biodiversity and improve forest management. While such partnerships
are being created in nearly every sector of resource extraction,
detailed analyses of how such partnerships work and whether they
benefit biodiversity conservation are rare. Using a case study from
the Congo Basin, the book examines principles of conservation and
partnership, and provides technical and methodological details to
replicate an innovative conservation model. It presents concrete
solutions for expanding conservation across multi-use landscapes, a
necessary action as industry expands to all the corners of the
globe.
