ESPA’s Managing Protected Areas framework was developed by the UK government, in response to the findings that gains in human well-being in recent decades have been achieved at the expense of high levels of ecosystem degradation. Despite their good intentions, conservation efforts can often create conflict with local communities, who have little involvement in the governance of protected areas. This animation gives audiences an overview of ESPA’s framework, which aims to mitigate the negative effects, and share the benefits of conservation efforts with local communities.
