La Amistad Biosphere Reserve: an exercise in environmental planning

Environmental planning techniques were used to produce a Conservation and Development Strategy for La Amistad Biosphere Reserve in Costa Rica. A review of the outstanding natural and cultural resources highlights: biodiversity, hydroelectric potential, pre-hispanic occupation, and contemporary indian cultures. The planning process is described, including problem definition, data collection and analysis, strategy synthesis, implementation, and evaluation. It is suggested that the resulting document (environmental and social analyses, zoning, and action plan) can lead to integrated management of the biosphere reserve. The methodology is presented as a potentially useful technique in developing management strategies for other biospheres.
