| Resumo: | The preservation of biodiversity and the provision of ecosystem services increasingly
depend on environmental conservation on private lands. There are many studies
demonstrating the capacity of private protected areas to conserve biodiversity. Private
conservation has been growing globally, but its management characteristics levels of
use and protection differ between countries. Despite these differences, these areas have
in common the role of important actors involved in financing and promoting actions for
environmental protection. Our aim is to understand possible political and social context
factors, in the national and regional scenario, that contributed to the dynamics of
creation of Brazilian Private Natural Heritage Reserves (RPPNs). We applied an online
questionnaire to owners and managers, collected and analysed data focusing on
motivations, difficulties, support received and actors involved in the process of creating
RPPNs. Our results showed that around 70% of the owners' motivations were mainly
conservationist, although not exclusively so. This was a pattern, independent of region
or biome, scope of creation (federal, state or municipal) or type of owner (individual or
company). With regard to difficulties, 58% experienced difficulties, regardless of time,
the majority of which were bureaucratic (75%), differing between region and biome.
Only 57% of landowners received support, 67% from Non-Governmental Organizations
and 31% from state governments. For landowners, technical support was more
significant than financial support. The creation of RPPNs can be attributed not only to
laws or specific policies to encourage it, but also to the altruism of the landowners. The
social interactions existing in a region or within a group of people seem to have
determined the dynamics. Legislation enacted at different levels of government in
combination with socio-economic trends create the conditions for establishing RPPNs.
Projects and public notices encouraging the creation of new RPPNs, with the
predominant participation of NGOs, were crucial to the emergence of new RPPNs. |
