New AHEAD White Paper:
Constraints
to Conservation and Development Success at the Wildlife-Livestock-Human
Interface in Southern African Transfrontier Conservation Areas:
A Preliminary Review, by David H. M. Cumming –
This rigorously referenced
white paper examines three questions: (i) What is the wildlife-livestock-human
interface?, (ii) What would represent conservation and development
success at the wildlife-livestock-human interface?, and (iii)
What are the key constraints to achieving conservation and
development success at the interface? A significant part of
the review deals with the third question but answers to the
first two questions provide a necessary prelude to dealing
with the constraints to conservation and development success
at the interface in southern African transfrontier conservation
areas (TFCAs). By examining conservation and development success
through the lens of existing TFCA objectives as outlined in
treaties and MOUs, and by evaluating constraints against a
simple set of objectives and indicators, the author provides
a thought-provoking overview and analysis.
