For effective participatory protected area management in five conservation landscapes in Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela and Brazil; development of protocols for assessing the effectiveness of management in protecting biodiversity and forest cover; and development of a new approach to environmental impact assessments focusing on the cumulative impacts of infrastructure development on ecological processes. Funding will be used to finalize management plans, build capacity for local communities to implement and monitor management plans, secure alternative sources of funding for protected area management, adapt conservation strategies to emerging threats from climate change and infrastructure, and develop web-based tools for the assessment of infrastructure impacts on basin-wide fish migration processes.
