Resumen
The principles and guidelines presented in this document respond to WCC Resolution 1.53 on Indigenous Peoples and Protected Areas, adopted at the World Conservation Congress in Montreal, October, 1996. Resolution 1.53 is based on recommendations from the IV World Congress on National Parks and Protected Areas (Caracas, Venezuela, 1992), calling for the development of policies for protected areas that safeguard the interests of indigenous peoples, and take into account customary resource practices and traditional land tenure systems. While the process of developing this document was accelerated after the resolution from Montreal, work began in 1995 between the IUCN Co-ordinator for Indigenous Peoples, the Programme on Protected Areas, and WCPA. In parallel, WWF had been developing their own ideas, building on a series of regional and national workshops with indigenous peoples’ organizations. Noting that many common issues emerged from both the WWF and IUCN consultations on this subject, it was decided to work together in developing a common position, building on the successful development of a WWF/IUCN joint policy on forest conservation.
