He anniversary, the inspiring story of a young girl who’s desires works long hard days in the field, I have seen many people changed snake conservation forever, or the story of working with the ability to do this but where he excels is that he is one through a difficult, some say almost impossible task, of taking of the most inspiring educators. He has a skill and a passion a family foundation to a functioning public charity. All of those for teaching people about reptiles and amphibians that is have crossed my mind but I keep coming back to the people unmatched. in particular our staff. I am known to be a straight forward Charli Palmer is quiet but she is one of the most dependable, person and one who does not say much about the good job hard-working, and thoughtful people I have worked with. someone has done, instead always trying to get people to work Charli started working as a program manager focused primarily harder on those areas where they need improvement. So let on administration but she has never stopped advancing taking me take a few minutes and tell you about what really makes the on more and more accounting responsibilities.

Heidi is educated as a wildlife biologist and Brannon Knight and Jacob Barrett live in South Georgia was working in Idaho when she helped me found the Orianne and form the backbone of our land management efforts in Society. In some ways, she gave up so much and that is not lost the Longleaf Savannas. Brannon is a big strong guy but also on me. She left her job as a biologist to become our Program has a very soft smile. He is currently away serving our country Manager, which is a position that focuses on the operations of in the Middle East. I cannot begin to express the level of the organization. She has generously changed her focus among respect and thanks I have for what Brannon is doing. Without administration, communications, fundraising, programs, him standing on the front lines none of us would have the education… whenever it was needed. She has and continues to opportunity to work on conservation. Jacob Barrett has come be one of the most critical things leading to Orianne’s success; into his own while Brannon has been away.

Our programs are designed using a customized, science-based approach. Specifically, we work on multiple conservation targets within a series of landscapes. We first examine the threats to each conservation target and then determine the research and applied programs required to achieve conservation for each. There are many themes that are often used across our work. Our primary theme is that we conduct science that informs conservation and we use science to inform on-the-ground conservation actions. However, to maintain our scientific credibility, we do not engage in advocacy or policy, though our work may be used by other organizations to influence policy. 4 ANNUAL REPORT Spotted Salamander.

  • Community Management of Wild Vicuña in Bolivia As a Relevant Case to Explore Community- Based Conservation Under Common Property Regimes, As Explained in Chapter 1
    Community-based Conservation and Vicuña Management in the Bolivian Highlands by Nadine Renaudeau d’Arc Thesis submitted to the University of East Anglia for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2005 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived therefrom, may be published without the author’s prior, written consent. Abstract Abstract Current theory suggests that common property regimes, predicated on the community concept, are effective institutions for wildlife management. This thesis uses community-based conservation of vicuña in the Bolivian highlands as a case study to re-examine this theory. Vicuña is a wild South American camelid living in the high Andes. Its fibre is highly valued in international markets, and trade of vicuña fibre is controlled and regulated by an international policy framework. Different vicuña management systems have been developed to obtain fibre from live- shorn designated vicuña populations. This thesis analyses whether the Bolivian case study meets three key criteria for effective common property resource management: appropriate partnerships across scale exist; supportive local-level collective action institutions can be identified; and deriving meaningful benefits from conservation is possible. This thesis adopts a qualitative approach for the collection and analysis of empirical data. Data was collected from 2001 to 2003 at different levels of governance in Bolivia, using a combination of ethnographic techniques, and methods of triangulation. Community-level research was undertaken in Mauri-Desaguadero and Lipez-Chichas fieldwork sites.
