Tensiones y retos para la Gobernanza Ambiental en las áreas naturales protegidas. El caso de la reserva de la biósfera selva el Ocote en Chiapas

Abstract

The biodiversity conservation model in Mexico constantly faces the challenge of working with the population that lives in the buffer zones of the natural protected areas (PNA). Such is the case of the selva el Ocote Biosphere Reserve in the state of Chiapas, where through a qualitative research, the tensions and challenges for the administration of the PNA are identified, facing an environmental governance scheme that could contribute to the construction of power balances between different social actors linked to the purpose of conservation, taking into account the social and environmental dimensions of sustainability.
