WCPA Chair had mostly an ambassadorial role for protected areas • Co-chair of the International Steering Committee for the World Parks Congress supporting IUCN/GPAP in setting part of the strategic directions for the WPC. • Healthy expansion of numbers and diversity to reach 2243 members more than 40% increase over historical average. • Active participation in the IUCN Council positioning PA´s increasingly in the overall agenda and with the new DG. • Mid-term evaluation of WCPA and Chair performance by President and DG overall quite positive. PROGRESS AGAINST GOALS (State goals and comment on progress set for the year- add more if needed) IUCN WCPA has 3 strategic directions in accordance with the IUCN Quadrennial Programme 2013‐2016. Please identify your group’s goals within this framework to demonstrate alignment with specific parts of the IUCN Programme agreed in Jeju. 1. VALUING AND CONSERVING NATURE 2. GOVERNING NATURE’S USE AND SHARING ITS BENEFITS EQUITABLY 3. DEPLOYING NATURE‐BASED SOLUTIONS TO GLOBAL CHALLENGES Goal 1: Provide vision and leadership as the Chair of WCPA to mobilize and support of members and the diverse components and groups in WCPA and IUCN. • PLANNED. As per the statement(s) and proposals provided in the process to become Chair of WCPA with support and seamless collaboration with the Deputy Chair and WCPA leadership and members as planned and agreed in terms of our goal-setting, implementation and evaluation procedures. • ACHIEVED. As in 2013 advance was limited by Chair ability to devote enough attention to communicate and coordinate with regional VC´s. Regions still with much disparity in activity. Need to get regions and specialist groups to interact more. Goal 2: To insure cooperation and coordination of WCPA in support of IUCN Quadrennial Programme 2013‐2016 in a “One Programme” approach in line with the WCPA mandate and with particular emphasis on GPAP and protected area themes across the IUCN Secretariat including intercommission work. • PLANNED. Continued contribution to delivery of One Programme and collaboration with oter commissions and areas of IUCN Secretariat. • ACHIEVED. Continued participation and support for a number of intercommission activities mainly related to KBA´s and legal aspects of PA conservation. Recently involved in “Green Lists” initiatives across the IUCN. Also with Deputy Chair and Trevor Sandwith working on expanding partnership with UNEP-WCMC on WDPA/Protected Planet. Goal 3: To participate as member of the IUCN Council in the overall governance and effectiveness of the Union with particular emphasis on underpinning the importance of protected areas and other area based conservation tools in achieving our IUCN vision and mission 7 IUCN WCPA Steering Committee Meeting 2015 – Technical Reports 2014 • PLANNED. Provide leadership in council to maintain IUCN focus on its core mission of biodiversity conservation, particularly as it relates to protected and conserved areas, while engaging with other partners and stakeholders. • ACHIEVED. Participation in Council was constant and PA´s have been showcased as one of the most cost effective conservation tools, if not the most, this refers not only in the practice of conservation but also within the IUCN. Together with Trevor Sandwith we have in effect very positively influenced the thinking within IUCN on protected areas and the discourse used by DG and DDG in this regard. It is expected that this will be very positive in the years to come as PA reassert their importance in the work of IUCN. ORGANIZATION (Comment on your goals regarding organization of the Commission in 2014) • PLANNED. Strong emphasis at this stage was and will be given to continuity and support of ongoing initiatives and their leaders and their integration into the Quadrennial Work Plan and contributions to the World Parks Congress. • ACHIEVED. This was one of the few goals fully achieved. • PLANNED. Strengthen regions and the “youth” component. Members will be asked to serve as “Mentors or tutors” to young and/or mid-career professionals to provide for better/adequate “age structure” for WCPA. • ACHIEVED. The measures were taken but with limited follow-up and most individuals concentrated on the WPC. Additional efforts must be developed to engage youth and mid-career professionals in all aspects of the commission as full and equal members and not just representatives of a professional or age group. Need to insist on mentor during 2015. Special attention is needed to reinforce work in Africa and Asia. • PLANNED. Promote participation of members in taskforces and groups relevant to the needs and opportunities in every region. • ACHIEVED. Still very limited advance in this regard. We will propose to now try to deliver as a group on The Promise of Sydney at the upcoming SC meeting in Vilm. MEMBERSHIP (Comment on how you plan to develop Commission membership) • The renewed, more flexible and more inclusive membership strategy has paid off. The WPC also gave us a boost. At least numerically as we are at 2243 members the most rapidly growing of the IUCN Commissions. • We have increased our diversity and recruited younger members but still need an effort to expand in certain regions and in converting the numbers into commitments for our mandate. • We will continue to promote the expansion of membership maintaining emphasis on underrepresented groups, themes, regions and professional backgrounds as well as additional participation of indigenous and community based conservation initiatives and leaders. COMMUNICATION (Indicate any planned publications or presentations to be initiated or completed in 2014) Publications: • As coauthor on three book chapters including the Centennial celebration volume on Parks for Science and Science for Parks (“THE ROLE OF PARKS AND PROTECTED AREAS AS GLOBAL CONTRIBUTORS TO HUMAN ASPIRATIONS AND SUSTAINABILITY”) and in GWS a vision for protected areas in modern conservation. Presentations: • Several at different for a. I.e. just at George Wright Society 2015 nine presentations/participations including closing plenary: “The bridge to Honolulu”. Strategic Stakeholder Communication • Contribute to overall

  • New Forms and Possibilities for Promotion of Russian National Parks in the Internet Environment
    Middle-East Journal of Scientific Research 16 (9): 1238-1244, 2013 ISSN 1990-9233 © IDOSI Publications, 2013 DOI: 10.5829/idosi.mejsr.2013.16.09.12011 New Forms and Possibilities for Promotion of Russian National Parks in the Internet Environment Elena A. Dzhandzhugazova Russion State University of Tourism and Service, Pushkin Area, Moscow Region, Russia Abstract: The paper considers specific features of organization of tourist activity in national parks, which are the most important category of specially protected natural areas. Basic tasks of national parks in the system of ecological education of the population and the development of programs of ecological tourism are discussed. The author emphasizes the need in competent and efficient tourist offer of the Russian national parks in the Internet environment and discusses the basic approaches to creating the contemporary tourism-related content which can attract attention of consumers of tourist services to natural tourist resources in Russia. On the basis of careful analysis of the structure and content of websites of Russian national parks, websites are suggested to be grouped in four websites categories, depending on the completeness and quality of the information provided. The results of analysis, carried out by the author, allowed him to conclude that only a quarter (23%) of websites of national parks contain information necessary for tourists and a part of national parks (7%) have either very poor tourist content, or no own informational web resource at all. Also, based on analysis of appeal of websites of national parks, the author can identify the key factors, either increasing or decreasing the website appeal, which allows him to suggest basic directions of optimization and development of web recourses for Russian national parks.

    Improving Visitor Experiences and Water Quality in Ugra National Park, Kaluga Worcester Polytechnic Institute • Interactive Qualifying Project Submitted to: Professor Svetlana Nikitina Submitted by: Matthew Crivello and Madeleine Gomel i Improving Visitor Experiences and Water Quality in Ugra National Park, Kaluga Interactive Qualifying Project Report completed in partial fulfillment of the Bachelor of Science degree at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Worcester, MA Submitted To Professor Svetlana Nikitina In Cooperation With Ugra National Park Matthew Crivello ______________________________ Madeleine Gomel ______________________________ Submitted on October 15th, 2013 ______________________________ Professor Svetlana Nikitina Improving Visitor Experiences and Water Quality in Ugra National Park, Kaluga Page ii Abstract This project focused on Ugra National Park in the Kaluga region of Russia, which needed help in increasing its visibility to tourists and protecting its river from industrial pollution. To investigate possible contamination, the team took water samples along the river and analyzed them for two different types of paper factory byproducts. Negative results showed that alternative hypotheses and tests for other contaminants are needed. In order to increase the park’s tourism the team conducted on-site research of the visitor accommodations and services. Comparing Ugra to other parks prompted the team to recommend adding more signs, indicating historic sites and creating a public outreach campaign. These measures will attract more tourists to see the park’s historic and natural treasures. Improving Visitor Experiences and Water Quality in Ugra National Park, Kaluga Page iii Acknowledgements We would like to thank all the people who helped us during the course of this project. Thank you to the professors who helped us back at Worcester Polytechnic Institute: James Chiarelli and Jeanine Plummer.

  • Development of Eco-Tourism in Foreign and Russian National Parks
    E3S Web of Conferences 296, 05011 (2021) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202129605011 ESMGT 2021 Development of eco-tourism in foreign and Russian national parks Elvira Rogozina, Tatiana Okonnikova, Ekaterina Pimenova, Elena Kalach, and Tatiana Ovsyannikova Udmurt State University, Universitetskaya str., 1, 426034 Izhevsk, Udmurt republic, Russia Abstract. The article gives a comparative analysis of eco-tourism development in North American, European and Russian national parks. The most successful examples of eco-tourism development in Russia and foreign countries are represented. North American and European national parks are noted to be the most attractive for visitors and possess a highly developed infrastructure. There are visitor centers, rental centers, cafes, camping sites, hiking trails, signboards, etc. In Russia, such factors as shortage of specialized tour operators, lack of solid collaboration between national parks and tour operators, poor mechanisms of creating awareness among independent tourists and encouraging their involvement in eco-tourism as well as lack of effective legislative and regulatory framework harden the development of eco-tourism. High transportation costs which contribute to the overall cost of eco-travel have a negative impact on the development of tourism in general making eco-tourism even less attractive. In January 2021 a questionnaire survey was carried out in order to reveal the significance of eco-tourism, its attractiveness for the citizens of the Udmurt Republic and prospective lines of its future development. The survey, based on a questionnaire method and random sampling, involved citizens of the Udmurt Republic. According to the survey findings, the respondents consider Russia to have all the necessary conditions for the development of eco-tourism.
