It provides public, private and non-governmental organisations with the knowledge and tools that enable human progress, economic development and nature conservation to take place together. Created in 1948, IUCN is now the world’s largest and most diverse environmental network, harnessing the knowledge, resources and reach of more than 1,300 Member organisations and some 16,000 experts. It is a leading provider of conservation data, assessments and analysis. Its broad membership enables IUCN to fill the role of incubator and trusted repository of best practices, tools and international standards. IUCN provides a neutral space in which diverse stakeholders including governments, NGOs, scientists, businesses, local communities, indigenous peoples organisations and others can work together to forge and implement solutions to environmental challenges and achieve sustainable development. Working with many partners and supporters, IUCN implements a large and diverse portfolio of conservation projects worldwide. Combining the latest science with the traditional knowledge of local communities, these projects work to reverse habitat loss, restore ecosystems and improve people’s well-being. IUCN is the advisory body on nature to UNESCO’s World Heritage Committee. Working closely with IUCN’s World Commission on Protected Areas (WCPA), the IUCN World Heritage Programme evaluates sites nominated to the World Heritage List, monitors the conservation of listed sites, and provides support, advice and training to site managers, governments, scientists and local communities. IUCN’s World Heritage Programme promotes the World Heritage Convention as a leading global instrument for conservation. Through partnerships and projects, it initiates innovative ways to enhance the role of the Convention in protecting the planet’s biodiversity and in positioning the worlds’ most iconic places as exemplars of nature-based solutions to global challenges. www.iucn.org www.iucn.org/worldheritage About The Christensen Fund The Christensen Fund is a private foundation dedicated to backing the stewards of biocultural diversity.

Case Western Reserve Journal of International Law 53 (2021) Who Owns Ocean Biodiversity?: The Legal Status and Role of Patents as a Means to Achieve Equitable Distribution of Benefits Abhaya Ganashree* Abstract The technological race to obtain genetic material from the ocean floors has been led by the economically advanced states of the global North. It has been a race for obtaining mineral resources among states, dominated by Inter-State competition for land, people and money. However, when the issue concerns mineral resources found in areas beyond national jurisdiction (ABNJ), there is potential for either competition or cooperation among nation-states. Deep-sea mining and bioprospecting are particularly divisive.

Forests contribute to the national wellbeing by controlling soil erosion, improving soil fertility and regulating water flow. It contributes to the national economy through the production of wood for artisan crafts and construction. Forest contribution to the economy also includes its recreational value to terrestrial tourism enterprises. Finally, forests enable the Palauan culture to flourish its value as a repository of culturally significant plant resources. The continued use of these forest resources as medicines, traditional building materials and crafts facilitates the maintenance and dissemination of Palauan traditional ecological knowledge.

  • Landscape Approach in Addressing Land Use and Tenure Arrangements Among Pastoral Commnities in Eastern Africa: the Case of Tanzania
    LANDSCAPE APPROACH IN ADDRESSING LAND USE AND TENURE ARRANGEMENTS AMONG PASTORAL COMMNITIES IN EASTERN AFRICA: THE CASE OF TANZANIA Working paper STEPHEN NINDI (1), FIONA FLINTAN (2), DEUS KALENZI (2), VICTOR MWITA (3), ISAACK LUAMBANO (2) Paper prepared for presentation at the “2018 WORLD BANK CONFERENCE ON LAND AND POVERTY” The World Bank - Washington DC, March 25-29, 2019 Copyright 2019 by author(s). All rights reserved. Readers may make verbatim copies of this document for non-commercial purposes by any means, provided that this copyright notice appears on all such copies. Abstract Land use and tenure related conflicts are not new in Tanzania including between farmers and livestock herders. Conflicts are increasingly becoming common places as human and animal population heightens, urbanization grows and increases in other land uses such as agriculture, mining, infrastructure development and other emerging uses. Pastoralists are used to their mobility to ensure sustainable availability of pasture, water and minerals and maintenance of gene diversity. Nonetheless, economic and human development processes have tremendously reduced land available for pastoral mobility resulting in increasing challenges over access to resources and land. For decades conventional village spatial planning has further restricted pastoral movement within village jurisdiction boundaries. Recently, spatial planners have embarked on developing Joint Village Land Use Plans and Agreements to enable more space and diversity for pastoral mobility, protecting shared grazing areas across village boundaries as part of this. As part of a wider and an integrated approach that looks at the challenge in its holistic and integral manner, there is opportunity for reconciling different land uses in the landscape and improving mutual benefits.
