Conserving Wildlife International Education and Communication Approaches

About this book

As we confront the unabated extinction of animal and plant species, together with the ever increasing human pressures on forests, wetlands, and marine environments, the conservation of such ecosystems depends to a large degree on public participation and support. This book documents fifteen exemplary education and communication programmes that have contributed to the conservation of wildlife and natural resources around the world. Representative case studies from all over the globe are presented in the same format to facilitate comparisons and to ensure continuity and applicability. The format includes programme goals, objectives, resources, and constraints; materials, methods, and processes; and evaluation of results and recommendations.
