Although the dugongs of Mozambique's Bazaruto Archipelago are the last known viable subpopulation along the East African coast, they remain threatened by a variety of anthropogenic and natural pressures that must be addressed to ensure their persistence. We aimed to establish recent trends in dugong abundance through a series of aerial surveys carried out between 2017 and 2021 over the Bazaruto seascape. We also assessed hotspots of dugong distribution in this region where targeted conservation measures may prove most effective. Finally, we modeled dugong population growth and mortality rates under varying scenarios to better understand the level of risk to anthropogenic mortality. We derived a total abundance of 325 SD 145 dugongs. While the estimates from this study and those from surveys in 2006–2007 (359 SD 137) suggest that dugong abundance has not changed significantly over the past 15 years, the confidence intervals of these estimates are too wide to detect potentially small changes relative to the subpopulation's size. The distribution of dugong sightings within the Bazaruto seascape over the 5‐year period indicates two core zones, one of which occurs outside the limits of established conservation areas. Population viability analyses demonstrated variability around rates of unnatural mortality that would cause long‐term decline in abundance. Together, these results provide strong motivations for higher level conservation actions such as the expansion and management of formal marine protected areas in the region and the listing of the East African dugong subpopulation within the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Our study also highlights the importance of developing alternative livelihoods and sustainably managing small‐scale fisheries in collaboration with local communities and other stakeholders in order to reduce the prevalence of fishing equipment and anthropogenic activities that directly or indirectly threaten dugongs in the Bazaruto seascape.
This paper identifies and examines leading publications on human rights within the management literature. For that, we used features of a bibliometric analysis -specifically exploring product and impact indicators -in order to identify the leading publications on human rights that were examined aiming to portray how the issue has been addressed within this field. Moreover, by identifying the key articles and concepts adopted by the leading publications, this paper offers an interpretation of the academic context that enabled the emergence of a human rights approach within the management field. Thus, a contribution of this paper is to highlight how the debate on human rights in management has been strengthened, identifying articles and journals that can be a source of reference for future research. Our study has identified a shift in the discussion regarding human rights. During the last decade the topic, which was initially focused on the role of states in guaranteeing human rights, has started to examine the relationship between organizations and society. Such transformation has placed human rights as both, a responsibility and a duty of corporations. It is suggested that the literature on ethics and corporate social responsibility (CSR) was the entrance for a human rights approach within management literature. However, the discipline has already engaged in elaborating different interpretation of human rights. Our research shows the potential of human rights in consolidate a research agenda on corporate impact in our societies.

Para isso, utilizamos características de uma análise bibliométrica -especificamente explorando indicadores de produção e impacto -para identificar as principais publicações sobre direitos humanos que foram examinadas com o objetivo de retratar como o problema foi abordado neste campo. Além disso, ao identificar os principais artigos e conceitos adotados pelas principais publicações, este trabalho oferece uma interpretação do contexto acadêmico que permitiu o surgimento de uma abordagem de direitos humanos no campo da administração. Assim, uma contribuição deste artigo é destacar como o debate sobre os direitos humanos foi fortalecido em administração, identificando artigos e revistas que podem ser uma fonte de referência para futuras pesquisas. Nosso estudo identificou uma mudança na discussão sobre direitos humanos. Durante a última década, o tópico, inicialmente focado no papel dos estados na garantia dos direitos humanos, começou a examinar a relação entre organizações e sociedade. Essa transformação colocou os direitos humanos como ambos, uma responsabilidade e um dever das corporações.
