Abstract:
Biodiversity conservation , resource management planning and particularly its implementation, while often constructed on comparatively sound ecological data and information, largely fail to sufficiently take into account the socio-economic processes and status of stakeholder communities. There is considerable local and national demand for data that can be used to support resource management and development goals using locally implementable methods such as SocMon (Socio-economic Monitoring of coral reefs), which require only minimal training and resources. There are many ground level constraints that are faced by most communities and managers in the South Asia region toward sustainable growth and conservation of natural resources. SocMon is a simple sociological field research and application tool/process that has been designed to build capacity in this regard through periodic data collection, sharing and visualization for the benefit of local communities, businesses and resource managers"--Executive summary.
