Biodiversity

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 425
Book Description
Biodiversity, sometimes simply understood as "diversity of species", is a specific quality of life on our planet, the dimensions and importance of which have just lately been fully realized. Today we know that "biological diversity is a global asset of incalculable value to present and future generations" (Kofi Annan). Biodiversity is spread unequally over the world: in fact, the main share of biological resources worldwide is harboured predominantly by the so-called developing countries in the tropics and sub tropics. Therefore, Biodiversity - A Challenge for Development Research and Policy was chosen as the title for an international conference which was held in Bonn in 1997 as one of the first major events organized by the then newly established North-South Centre for Development Research (ZEF) at Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universitat Bonn (Germany). Since the ZEF, founded by the Senate of the University of Bonn in 1995, has played a central role in turning Bonn into a centre for international cooperation and North-South dialogue. The Centre is a product of the Bonn Berlin agreement of July 1994 which was adopted to offset the effects caused by the Parliament and much of the Government moving to Berlin. It fits in well with the double strategy to strengthen Bonn's position as an interna tional science arena and as an eminent place for development policy and the national and supranational agencies dealing with this issue.

Directrices voluntarias para la conservación a nivel nacional de especies silvestres afines a las plantas cultivadas y plantas silvestres comestibles
Author: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United NationsPublisher: Food & Agriculture Org.
ISBN: 9251300410
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
Los parientes silvestres de cultivos son posibles fuentes de caracteres deseables para la obtención de variedades bien adaptadas, mientras que las plantas silvestres comestibles son componentes importantes de la dieta de muchas personas en todo el mundo. Lamentablemente, sus hábitats silvestres naturales están cada vez más amenazados por las actividades humanas y las catástrofes naturales. La pérdida de hábitat repercute de manera directa y negativa en la diversidad de estos valiosos recursos. Las presentes directrices, concebidas como material de referencia para la elaboración de un Plan nacional para la conservación y el uso sostenible de parientes silvestres de cultivos y plantas silvestres comestibles, contribuirán a frenar esta continua pérdida de diversidad. Las directrices son, por consiguiente, un instrumento útil para profesionales del desarrollo, investigadores, estudiantes y responsables de la formulación de políticas que trabajan en la conservación y el uso sostenible de estos valiosos recursos.
