We analyzed the management, resource use and conservation of the Ankarafantsika National Park (Madagascar) to develop a management plan, which provides a sustainable development strategy of the area while empowering the local residents. Using qualitative methodology we performed interviews with villagers and local organizations to assess the park's successes and failures from local stakeholders' perspectives. People living in a village with a permanent Madagascar National Parks (MNP) agent are more favorable to and supportive of the park conservation. People living in the park are supportive but are more divided. On the other hand, people living on the periphery of the park see conservation as more of a burden. Strategies like more equitable distribution of wealth, environment improvement and decentralization of power are discussed to achieve a more sustainable management plan based on community natural resources management. Short-term, medium, and long-term interventions from park authorities are needed to ensure the cooperation of local people in conservation endeavors.
我们分析了安卡拉凡特希卡国家公园(马达加斯加)的管理、资源利用和保护情况,以制定管理计划,为该地区提供可持续发展战略,同时增强当地居民的能力。我们采用定性方法,对村民和当地组织进行了访谈,从当地利益攸关方的角度评估公园的成功和失败。与常驻马达加斯加国家公园(MNP)代理的村庄的居民更倾向于支持公园的保护。居住在公园里的人是支持的,但意见更为分歧。另一方面,居住在公园周边的人则认为保护是一种负担。我们讨论了更公平的财富分配、环境改善和权力下放等策略,以基于社区自然资源管理实现更可持续的管理计划。公园管理部门需要采取短期、中期和长期干预措施,以确保当地人在保护工作中的合作。
