Summary
The Wildlife and Development series highlights key topics in the field of sustainable wildlife use and is aimed at policy-makers, planners, government extension workers and NGOs. This latest publication is the summary of a three-year programme in the Masai Mara National Reserve, funded by The Darwin Institute for the Survival of the Species and organised by The Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology, University of Kent. The programme trained Kenyans to research and monitor human-wildlife conflict in the Masai Mara ecosystem, focussing on three main areas: the factors affecting the recovery of the black rhino population, the impact of tourism, and human-elephant conflict. At a series of workshops held in Kenya, the findings were discussed and disseminated, and recommendations for further action were developed through debate and consensus. The results of these workshops are reproduced in their entirety.
