Guidance for the Assessment of Ecosystem Services in African Biosphere Reserves: A Way Forward to Sustainable Development

Paris. (ISBN: 978-92-3-100529-9).

The wellbeing of populations is often directly dependent on ecosystem services. Furthermore, access to the benefits from nature contributes to poverty alleviation. Therefore, a better knowledge and integration of ecosystem services in the management of Biosphere reserves will contribute to their conservation and sustainable development. Developed in the context of the EVAMAB research project, and based on good practices from African biosphere reserves, this manual is a user-friendly ‘package’ or guidance to decision-makers, managers and stakeholders of African biosphere reserves, and beyond, in order to better harness the potential of ecosystem services for conservation and sustainable development
