“…To fill both these funding and management gaps, a broad range of instruments have been proposed to finance and manage biodiversity conservation within and outside protected areas, including economic and market instruments (McNeely, 1988;Emerton et al, 2006 (Sandor et al, 2009). The characterization, advantages, limits and applicability of innovative financial mechanisms have been largely discussed (Vatn et al, 2014;Galaz et al, 2016).…”

“…With Option 1, the cooperative program may choose to become an incorporated body to address this issue, as has been achieved by several other landscape--scale collaborations in Australia (Fitzsimons et al 2013). There is no single funding model shown to be 'best' in the literature, but there is a wealth of guidance on how to fund protected areas and access multiple sources of funding (Emerton et al 2006). …”

Clement, S., Moore, S.A., Lockwood, M. and Mitchell, M. (2015)Using insights from pragmatism to develop reforms that strengthen institutional competence for conserving biodiversity.Policy Sciences, 48 (4 Mitchell) AbstractThe poor performance of biodiversity institutions has prompted calls for reform. Adaptive governance has been promoted as a means of supporting improved biodiversity outcomes. However, incorporating adaptive elements into biodiversity governance has been a challenge. In particular, efforts to make institutions more 'adaptive' often fail to account for existing capacity and context--specific factors. Clear guidance on how to move from general, ambitious adaptive governance prescriptions to specific, context--dependent recommendations is needed. This paper demonstrates how insights from pragmatism can inform an approach for designing institutional reforms that address current shortcomings in adaptive governance approaches. This design scaffolds reform options on a platform of existing competency and institutional legacy. Informed by the results of a prior institutional diagnosis, reform development followed a three--stage process: defining plausible reform spaces; identifying reform possibilities within these spaces; and elaborating reform options. Two very different landscapes provided the case studies: a highly modified agricultural landscape, where private landholders are responsible for managing biodiversity as a public good; and a group of national parks, where the state holds primary responsibility. The reforms in the agricultural landscape build on successful landholder and organizational efforts to self--organize and pursue innovative solutions, while those for the protected area enable greater managerial discretion and address the challenges of working across multiple government jurisdictions. This context--driven approach draws on insights from pragmatism to provide guidance on the design of institutional reforms that meet the demands of adaptive governance in a way that is both systematic and realistic.

“…The literatures on financing for conservation point that lack of financial resources has continuously become a main challenge for supporting the conservation activities, particularly in protected areas (PAs) (Emerton et al 2006, Child B., 2013. Sustainable financing is crucial to secure the conservation program's success (Verweij and de Man 2005).…”

Financial incomes in the management of national parks represent one of the essential components in the management of protected areas. Revenues generated through the sustainable use of resources are of great importance, and are essential components financing the activities of national parks (NPs). In the system of financing NPs are determined by the three general methods of financing: the budget of the Republic of Serbia through grants; revenues generated by the organization that manages the NP and donations.The aim of the research is to acquire new knowledge about the economic value of the part of ecosystem services in the territory of NP Kopaonik (NPK). The purpose of the research is part of the economic evaluation of ecosystem services, as well as establishing the importance and possibilities for the development of the NPK by further differentiating sources of income of the national park in comparison to other ecosystem services. The methodological approach refers to a case study in the territory of the NPK. The research objects are: timber (assortments and part of final production) and non-timber forest products (blueberries, porcini, chanterelles, wild berries and herbs), which are commercially important for management of NPK.The assortment structure of timber which the NPK delivers to all customers, participate spruce and fir with 63%, while beech has a share of 37%. Placement of assortments of beech, spruce and fir has linear trend with exponential growth rate of +5.8%. Purchase of beech, fir and spruce decreases according to the linear trend with exponential growth rate of -4.4%, as well as placement on domestic market.
