eco.mont - Vol 8 No 1

The articles of this issue deal with human perceptions on landscapes, indigenous ecological knowledge, conservation con icts, backpacker tourism, effects of climate change, local development and sci- enti c councils, thus mirroring the wide variety of in uence people have on pro- tected areas. Protected areas only work well if the management and the people living around them work together effectively and if decision-making is a joint process.
