Описание:
Saving the world's flora and fauna, especially high-profile examples such as chimpanzees, whales and the tropical rain forests, is big business. Individuals and companies channel their resources to the preservation of nature through various ways, one of which is the funding of environmental non-governmental organizations (ENGOs) and community-based organizations (CBOs). This book is the first to comprehensively address this issue and focus on a dominant theme in environmental philanthropy, the links between ENGOs and CBOs and their sponsors, especially the private sector.
It has been argued that donor support is based on recipient's perceived expertise and needs, with no favouritism of flagship environmental organizations as recipients of donor funds. A counterview holds that the private sector prefers to fund mainstream ENGOs for environmental research and policy reforms congenial to industrial capital. The authors show that the debate about these arguments, together with the empirical evidence on which they are based, may shed light on certain aspects of the nature of environmental philanthropy. The book evaluates practical examples of environmental philanthropy from Africa and elsewhere against philosophical questions about the material and geographical expressions of philanthropy, and the North-South connections among philanthropists and ENGOs and CBOs.

Описание: The Arabian Seas Marine Region encompasses marine areas from Djibouti to Pakistan, including the northern part of Somalia, the Red Sea, the Arabian/Persian Gulf, and parts of the Arabian Sea. Human pressures on the coastal and marine environments are evident throughout the region, and have resulted in harmful environmental effects.
Описание: This guide identifies two key components for establishing effective conservation agriculture systems: developing multidisciplinary scientific and technical capacity; and collaborating closely with farming communities – not just with farmers – to build on their existing knowledge.
It provides a suite of technical tools for Farmer Field Schools and extension service facilitators working with conservation agriculture, including crop mixes, soil cover, and good agronomic management practices. Its capacity development guidance supports the identification, testing, adoption and dissemination of effective conservation agriculture systems.
Agriculture in Eastern Europe and Central Asia is diverse, and has great potential to revitalize the economy of the countries in the region via improved productivity and higher yields for food, fodder and fibre crops. Conservation agriculture can help meet the challenge of making the sustainable intensification of production systems a reality.
Описание: Presents the forest resources and the forest sector of the Caucasus and Central Asia, including trends in, and pressures on the resource, to describe the policies and institutions for the forest sector in the region and to list the major challenges the sector faces, and the policy responses in place or planned.
