Peace Parks Sample Clauses

Peace Parks. The notion of peace parks is a global one, with the World Conservation Union (IUCN) identifying 227 transboundary protected area complexes around the world that incorporate 3 043 individual protected areas or internationally designated sites. The idea was and remains compelling: an opportunity to think beyond political boundaries to accommodate gene pools, water flow, wildlife movement and the propagation of plant species; an opportunity to unlock regional economic development, share the conservation of biodiversity and promote regional peace and stability by demonstrating the benefits of cooperation. The dream of contiguous transfrontier conservation areas (TFCAs) in southern Africa began its realisation in the mid-1990s in the discussions of visionary leaders as they contemplated a new era of regional peace, democracy and development. In the years since, it has been the political will of leaders in southern Africa, and the efforts of an organisation set up to champion the peace parks concept, that has seen the vision of peace parks taking shape on the subcontinent. Spearheaded by Dr Xxxxx Xxxxxx, and with President Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and HRH Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx of the Netherlands as co-founding patrons, Peace Parks Foundation was founded on 1 February 1997 to facilitate the creation of TFCAs throughout southern Africa. The concept of the region’s peace parks is as glorious as it is audacious: vast conservation areas that straddle national borders, of sufficient extent to incorporate entire biomes; of sufficient integrity to restore the ancient patterns of diverse ecological communities, and of sufficient vision to reconnect the shared cultures of tribal peoples, dislocated when colonial rulers arbitrarily imposed Africa’s borders and cut through some 190 culture groups (xxx.xxxxxxxxxx.xxx). Eighteen TFCAs have either been, or are in the process of being established in southern Africa, including Africa’s first marine TFCA, the Ponta do Ouro-Kosi Bay TFCA, which forms part of the larger Lubombo Transfrontier Conservation and Resource Area between Mozambique, South Africa and Swaziland. Figure 16 shows the location of the eighteen TFCAs in southern Africa.
