Guides
WWF Chile (2020). Guía para la planificación y gestión de áreas marinas protegidas con participación de comunidades locales y/o indígenas basada en los estándares para la conservación. Guide for planning and management of Marine Protected Areas with participation of local and/or indigenous communities, based on the Conservation Standards. This resource for the participation of local and/or Indigenous communities in marine protected area management and planning used HCP as a primary reference for inspiration and adaptation. It was originally produced in Spanish and has been translated to English.
The Malama I Ke Kai: Community Action Guide was launched by the Maui Nui Makai Network to empower coastal communities to engage in the management of ocean resources. The Network’s mission is to protect and restore coastal and marine ecosystems in ways that honor and perpetuate local Hawaiian traditions, customs, and knowledge while embracing scientific insight. Here you can learn more about this effort.
Webinar Recordings
Explore with us prototype guidance and tools for community-led conservation. In this webinar we present overarching principles and practices for community-led conservation and two specific tools to assist projects in the pre-planning phase and throughout the adaptive management cycle. For further information, please see also our sub-page for this project.
A recording of our webinar for North America, Central America and South America can be found HERE.
Too often, land use decision-making happens in isolation from conservation planning. Development by Design seeks to overcome this barrier by connecting the impact assessment process to a communities conservation plan. This webinar will explore in a case study how TNC Australia partnered with Walalakoo Aboriginal Corporation in Western Australia to adapt the Development by Design process and build it around the group’s Healthy Country Plan.
Scaling Indigenous-led Conservation using the Conservation Standards - Scaling Challenge
Over the course of a year the CoP Indigenous CS Projects participated in a learning network facilitated by Foundations of Success (FOS) with the project "Scaling of Indigenous-led Conservation using the Conservation Standards" (SILC). Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities for many years expressed the need for tools that enable their leadership and equitable participation in conservation initiatives - a message only amplified by the Global Biodiversity Framework and its 30x30 target. Join the CoP Indigenous CS Projects and FOS for this webinar to learn about the project and explore an exciting new tool FOS has developed to help projects going to scale.
Please find here FRENCH, SPANISH and PORTUGUESE translations of the webinar.
Balancing sustainable tourism development with Indigenous reindeer herding
Explore in this webinar how tourism development can be balanced with Indigenous Sámi reindeer herding. This real-life case study presented by Daniel Wolf-Watz will show how in Sweden the Conservation Standards helped to bridge the gap between tourism development and Indigenous reindeer herding in this ground breaking project.
Transnational Indigenous Conservation in the Ecuador- Colombia Amazon Basins
Hear in the video from Carolina Polania of The Nature Conservancy Colombia and Gabriela Celi of The Nature Conservancy Ecuador as they delve into how the Conservation Standards have been instrumental in this ambitious program.
Discover how the CS supported transnational dialogue to achieve impact on a basin scale and how the CS have been adapted to local community contexts to strengthen local leadership to support their critical role in safeguarding the Amazon's ecosystems, including the vital Caquetá and Napo Rivers.
