"Working with people is at the heart of the
[protected landscapes] concept and it is abundantly clear to me
that protection of landscapes and the beauty and biodiversity they
contain can be achieved only through cooperation and not coercion."
- P.H.C. Bing Lucas, Vice Chair for World Heritage,
IUCN
Effective conservation strategies continue to develop and evolve
through innovation. To stay informed of current trends, the Conservation
