Management of the Tapajós-Arapiuns Extractive Reserve: Limits and possibilities in the perception of its counsilors

Abstract

Protected Areas (PAs) are strategic for sociobiodiversity conservation; they strengthen traditional communities and promote sustainable development and their territorial management needs to be inclusive, participative and integrating. This study analyzed the shared management of the Tapajós-Arapiuns Extractive Reserve and how the members of its Deliberative Council perceive its contributions to the PA’s socioeconomic development. Analysis of the results of the semi-structured interviews used content analysis to extract the data and identified discourse patterns that indicate aspects that could be improved to foster the institutional strengthening of the Deliberative Council itself.
