Evolving a new approach to biosphere reserves
Biosphere reserves are examined as a mechanism to assist countries in implementing the philosophy of the World Conservation Strategy. The paper discussed integrating conservation with development, in recognition of the dependency of development on conservation, and the important question of "What's in it for me? A re-evaluation of the functions of existing biosphere reserves is recommended and new procedures for establishment of biosphere reserves and their funding are susggested. The value and importance of the biosphere reserve concept are endorsed, provided that current practices are improved.
