In 2000 the Australasian Native Orchid Society, Victorian Group Inc. (ANOS Vic) made the decision to become proactive in orchid conservation. It was appar- ent that government organisations were over stretched when it came to devoting the resources needed to protect our native orchids and that as a society we could assist in many ways. ; In 2000 the Australasian Native Orchid Society, Victorian Group Inc.

Located at the gradually emerging juncture between the current discourses on the global and art in ecocritical scholarship, this article explores how contemporary works of art such as EARTH Sticker (2005) by the North American artist Philip Krohn and artist residency and exhibition projects such as Human/Nature: Artists Respond to a Changing Planet (2008) parse, represent, and imagine the political, socioeconomic, cultural, and especially ecological implications of globalization. EARTH Sticker and two contributions to Human/Nature, the sculptures Sapukay: Cry for Help and Teko Mbarate: Struggle for Life by the Portuguese artist and current San Francisco Bay Area resident Rigo 23, present different environmental imaginaries that challenge and simultaneously rely on the material contexts and conditions on which the increasingly globalized production of art is always predicated. As Krohn and Rigo 23 demonstrate, even art that is created in an environmentalist context (Human/Nature) or with an ostensible activist purpose (EARTH Sticker) cannot escape this double bind. To identify this dilemma is not to dismiss these works of art as self-contradictory failures, but to highlight precisely Krohn's and Rigo 23's important insights with regard to this embedment for other global environmental imaginaries and particularly for further ecocritical analysis. Emphasizing the material and institutional conditions, current means and sites of cultural production, and technologies for the dissemination of information, these works of art thus foreground and perform what is often erased from the equation and from critical analysis.ResumenSituado en la poco a poco emergente coyuntura entre los discursos sobre lo global y sobre el arte en la ecocrítica, este artículo examina cómo trabajos de arte contemporáneo como EARTH Sticker (2005), del artista norteamericano Philip Krohn, y residencias de artistas y proyectos de exposiciones como Human/Nature: Artists Respond to a Changing Planet (2008) analizan, representan e imaginan las ...

The National System of Nature Conservation Units (SNUC) is a set of regulatory mechanisms for creation and management of protected areas in Brazil based on integrated action of the different political-administrative spheres of the State. Its legal design foresees a series of conservation units that seek to guarantee conservation and environmental preservation. In addition to presenting the structuration of SNUC and its materialization in the Brazilian territory, this paper reflects on its objectives as territorial uses and norms. The main contribution sought is to encourage a comprehensive understanding of protected areas as inherent elements of the dynamics of land use in Brazil. ; El Sistema Nacional de Unidades de Conservación de la Naturaleza (SNUC) constituye un conjunto de mecanismos normativos para la creación y la gestión de áreas protegidas en Brasil a partir de la actuación integrada de las distintas esferas político-administrativas del Estado. Su diseño legal prevé una serie de "unidades de conservación" que buscan garantizar la conservación y la preservación ambiental. Además de presentar la estructura del SNUC y su materialización en el territorio brasileño, este trabajo hace una reflexión sobre sus objetivos como usos del territorio y normas territoriales. El principal aporte pretendido es el desarrollo de una forma de leer la planificación territorial que sea alimentada por el marco teórico propio de la geografía, para así alcanzar una comprensión integral de las áreas protegidas como elementos inherentes a la dinámica del uso del territorio en Brasil.

A central element in multi-scalar and hierarchical environmental governance is the provisional legitimacy of institutional arrangements. This article focuses on the strategies deployed by a sample of protected area managers in Peru in the work with, from, for and sometimes against communities in the search for a negotiated coexistence. Currently, the park-community relationship in Peru is characterized by a strategic approach. Based on interviews and government documents, this text analyzes the strategies and rationalities of environmental governance. An argument is developed about the consolidation of a social contract for conservation understood as the process that allows the establishment of reciprocal recognition between the protected area institution and local organizations. Three elements stand out in the interviews: the legacies of conservation in rural areas, the old and new spaces and mechanisms for participation, and the emergence of new forms of rural organization in relation to protected areas through the formalization of management agreements. It is concluded that each of these elements point to conditions for creating lasting legitimacy in conservation territories; however, these participatory and inclusive mechanisms are also hierarchical institutional spaces due to their emphasis on the creation of incentives.

"Proceedings of the Eighteenth International Conference on Environmental, Cultural, Economic & Social Sustainability, hosted by the University of Granada, January 26 - 28, 2022. The conference featured research addressing the following special focus: "Post-Pandemic Sustainability: Towards a Green Economic Recovery for Nature, People and Planet" and annual themes: Ecological Realities: How do Ecological Realities Necessarily Frame Our Planetary Existence?; Participatory Process: Whose Sustainable Future?; Economic, Social and Cultural Context: What are the Pressing Demands of Our Time?; Education, Assessment, and Policy: Framing Responsibility to Act?"

This work presents several different points of view regarding the role of environmental innovation as the driving force of public policy designed to promote sustainabilityand reduce environmental impacts. Environmental innovation is analyzed byexamining concrete practices such as sustainable design, green branding, eco-labeling, the use of medicinal plants, and improved plant varieties, among other things, and the individual and collective intellectual property rights that protect and promote these kinds of innovations. While this thematic diversity is directly proportional to the complexity of the author's presentation, it does not detract from the conceptual unity of the text. On the contrary, by examining the concepts as applied in a variety of contexts, the author highlights not only the challenges that must be faced in order to protect the general interest, but also proposes alternative solutions that promise to improve the structure, emphases, and priorities of these rights. This work represents the culmination of a valuable research project that benefited from the cumulative experience of the author and will be of great interest to scholars in the field, It is an important theoretical contribution to the formulation of strategies for environmental mitigation, adaptation, and recovery.

El contexto marítimo de los países del "Corredor Marino de Conservación del Pacifico Este Tropical", constituyen un territorio marítimo complejo, diverso y de gran importancia, para el desarrollo sostenible y la preservación ambiental, respecto a los actores que interactúan a nivel gubernamental y no gubernamental, y la relación de los referentes normativos que promueven y regulan el uso de los espacios oceánicos en forma segura y limpia, teniendo en cuenta que la mayor parte de las aguas se han convertido en vías de comunicación indispensables y vitales para el patrón de vida a nivel planetario. Desde esta perspectiva, la presente investigación identifica las características biofísicas que caracterizan esta área marina compartida por los gobiernos de Ecuador, Costa Rica, Colombia y Panamá, y sustentada en sus intereses y prioridades nacionales. Este Corredor es ejemplo a nivel mundial, de preservación de los patrimonios naturales, del cuidado de la biodiversidad y del equilibrio interestatal, en la aplicación del concepto de seguridad integral marítima, través de las potencialidades que representa "el Poder Marítimo del Estado". ; The maritime countries in the context of "Marine Conservation Corridor of the Eastern Tropical Pacific" maritime territory is a complex, diverse and of great importance to sustainable development and environmental preservation, the maritime context of the countries of the "Marine Corridor Eastern Tropical Pacific Conservation "constitute a complex maritime territory, diverse and of great importance to sustainable development and environmental preservation, given that most of the waters have become indispensable and vital way of communication for pattern of life on a planetary scale. From this perspective, this research identifies the biophysical features that characterize this marine area shared by the governments of Ecuador, Costa Rica, Colombia and Panama and based on its national interests and priorities. This Corridor is globally example, preservation of natural heritage, biodiversity care and interstate balance in applying the concept of comprehensive maritime security through the potential it represents "sea power of the state".

A development model, to be such, must consider meeting the needs of the community, ensuring a decent life, in which the goal should be to provide maximum comfort and happiness possible, facilitating the habitability of the territories in healthy living and harmony with nature. This must be the crux of the debate address the socio-environmental problems caused by the so-called locomotive of progress, in the case of Antioquia (Colombia) East, however development plans or solutions show no real expectation of the community.

En este estudio se analizó el esquema de estructura participativa de dos programas gubernamentales de conservación para especies amenazadas en México; se evaluó la organización y operación en red y otras formas de acción colectiva mediante el método de presencia-ausencia, así como del uso redes sociales y de contenido, con base en entrevistas semiestructuradas. Se pudo observar que las redes son descentralizadas, conformadas por diversos grupos de actores, cuya participación es crucial para implementar los programas de investigación científica. También se pudo advertir que en el caso de los actores que colaboran con el gobierno, suelen ocupar roles de liderazgo, con el posible riesgo de que sobrepongan intereses propios a los establecidos por los programas. Se identificó que la operación de estos últimos enfrenta obstáculos tales como la limitación de financiamiento gubernamental y la rigidez de los lineamientos legales internos que afectan la apertura de las redes a nuevos miembros.
