In Brazil, the institutional incentives are focused on the intensive management of wild
animals (captive intensive farming); there are a few extensive management initiatives in
natural environments. The fresh water Podocnemididae turtles are resources of great
importance for the Amazon households. The turtle conservation programs in sustainable
use protected areas increased in the Amazonas since the 1990s and 2000s. The
participatory local management assumes that the administrative decentralization of
conservation actions is an alternative for recovering of the threatened stocks. The Uatumã
chelonian program (PQU) operates in the Uatumã Sustainable Development Reserve
(RDSU) for sixteen years in the reproductive monitoring of turtles in partnership with
riverine villages (communities) and external institutions, along the Uatumã river, in the
municipalities of São Sebastião do Uatumã, Itapiranga and Presidente Figueiredo. This
research was a comparative study case between six PQU partners communities with
different degree of participation to foster the monitoring of turtles reproduction trying to
determine the set of institutional incentives that may encourage voluntary participation by
users of the resource "turtles" in conservation and management actions and under what
conditions these initiatives may turn out to be successful. The results suggest that
successful participation in the management initiatives was higher in communities that
implemented restrictive practices on resource usage with formal and informal collective
agreements, supported by material and monetary incentives received from external
institutions and aware of the need to protect their common use territories (lakes and
beaches). Those actions ensure the exclusive use of those resources by their households,
those that received such benefit by adhering to the PQU proposal compared to other ones.
For the other hand, communities from where turtles resource were less abundant and
breeding sites were rarer, were most dependent from these resources and less participative. |
