    April 2008 December 2008 28th Edition Mining in Protected Areas Wisdom or ..........? Growing tension between conservation and economic objectives remain a challenge to many countries! Development benefits flowing from protected areas and the need to reflect them in the plans and budgets of forestry, agriculture, energy, tourism, mining, fisheries and other economic sectors need environmental focus. Fundamentally, governments give overriding emphasis to economic growth as a goal in itself, and the critical dimensions of development relating to quality of life of the citizens tend to be sidelined. Some important attributes of protected areas which bring contentment, happiness, education, enjoyment and health to communities and wildlife fall outside an economic growth perspective.

The aim is to assist developing countries with significant geothermal potential to build up groups of specialists that cover most aspects of geothermal exploration and development. During 1979-2004, 318 scientists and engineers from 39 countries have completed the six month courses. They have come from Asia (44%), Africa (26%), Central America (14%), and Central and Eastern Europe (16%). There is a steady flow of requests from all over the world for the six month training and we can only meet a portion of the requests. Most of the trainees are awarded UNU Fellowships financed by the UNU and the Government of Iceland. Candidates for the six month specialized training must have at least a BSc degree and a minimum of one year practical experience in geothermal work in their home countries prior to the training.
