背景

肯尼亚的野生动物保护区最初主要是为了保护野生动物和其他自然资源。肯尼亚议会于2013 年通过了《野生动物保护和管理法》,以提供更公平的资源共享,并允许进行替代的、以社 区为基础的管理工作[1].此后,肯尼亚增加了修正案,以解决立法中的差距,为违规者提供 更明确的治理、财政和惩罚[2].

要求

专注于一个大型的游戏保护区,马赛马拉,你的任务是确定其他方法来管理公园当前边界内外 的资源。具体来说,您应该:

考虑并建议当前保护区内不同地区的具体政策和管理策略,这将保护野生动物和其他自 然资源,同时也能平衡生活在该地区的人们的利益。这些政策和战略应有助于减轻居 住在保护区附近的人们失去机会的影响,并尽量减少动物和被保护区吸引的人之间的 负面互动。

开发和描述一种方法,以确定哪些政策和管理策略将产生最好的结果。你的报告应 该讨论如何对你的方法得出的结果进行排名和比较。一定要包括对用于预测动物 和人之间互动的模型的描述和分析,以及在保护区内和周边地区由此产生的经济 影响。

根据你提出的计划,提供关于你的建议将产生的长期趋势的预测。分析并提供对可 能的长期结果的确定性和影响的估计。您还应该描述如何将您的方法应用于其他 野生动物管理领域。

最后,为肯尼亚旅游和野生动物委员会提供一份两页的非技术性报告,讨论你 提出的计划及其对保护区的价值。

的PDF解决方案总共不超过25页,应该包括:

Subab一页总结表。

《沙桂教堂目录》。

你的解决方案。

两页的非技术性报告。

沙痂参考清单。

Problem B: Reimagining Maasai Mara

Background

Kenya’s wildlife preserves were originally created primarily to protect wildlife and other natural

resources. Kenya’s parliament passed the Wildlife Conservation and Management Act, 2013 to

provide more equitable sharing of resources, as well as to allow alternative, community-based

management efforts [1] . Kenya has since added amendments to address gaps in the legislation to

provide more clear governance, finance, and penalties for violators [2] .

Requirement

Focusing on one large game preserve, the Maasai Mara, your task is to determine alternate ways

to manage the resources within and outside the current boundaries of the park. Specifically, you

should:

• Consider and recommend specific policies and management strategies for different areas

within the current preserve that will protect wildlife and other natural resources while

also balancing the interests of the people who live in the area. These policies and

strategies should help mitigate the impacts of lost opportunities experienced by the

people who live near the preserve, as well as minimize negative interactions between

animals and the people attracted to the preserve.

• Develop and describe a methodology to determine which policies and management

strategies will result in the best outcomes. Your report should discuss how to rank and

compare outcomes from your methodology. Be sure to include descriptions and analyses

of the models used to predict the interactions between animals and people, as well as the

resulting economic impacts in the area within and around the preserve.

• Given your proposed plan, provide predictions about the long-term trends that will result

from your recommendations. Analyze and provide estimates of the certainties and

impacts of the possible long-term outcomes. You should also describe how your

approach could be applied to other wildlife management areas.

Finally, provide a two-page non-technical report for the Kenyan Tourism and Wildlife

Committee discussing your proposed plan and its value for the preserve.
