McNeeley, Jeffrey A., ed. Expanding Partnerships in Conservation. This is a collection of papers on conservation partnerships that were presented during the IVth World Congress on National Parks and Protected Areas held in Caracas, Venezuela in February of 1992. While the focus is on partnerships around the world between protected area managers and other public and private sectors of society, the principles discussed are applicable to the United States. The editor suggests several factors, such as shrinking agency budgets and increasing demands on natural resources, that have produced a situation in which protected areas are in need of support from the public, private sector, and government agencies.
Articles draw on international examples, including from the United States.
The second section addresses partnerships involving protected areas and agencies, natural hazards managers, the tourism industry, the energy industry, investors, women's groups, and the military.
