Avaliação da efetividade de gestão da Reserva de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (RDS) do Tupé, Manaus/AM

Abstract

Before the human pressure on the environment, the conservation of natural resources is of fundamental importance to ensure their proper use and continuity. The creation of Conservation Units it`s a instrument to conservation and/or nature of preservation. However, there s a need to correctly evaluate the reach and effectiveness of management within the Units. With this focus, an effectiveness analysis was done for the Tupé Sustainable Development Reservation (Tupé RDS), Manaus, AM. For this end, a exploratory survey was done, having done four technical visits to the Reservation and ten interviews with a structured questionnaire, based on the methods of ―Management Effectiveness Evaluation‖ and ―RAPPAM.‖ As a result, the effectiveness of reservation management was classified as ―High‖ and ―Satisfactory,‖ observing that the problems linked to their management are related to the lack of a management plan and the inexistence of monitoring and continuity of means of management. This fact originated in the precarious human resources (quantity/qualification), finances (investment) and infrastructure (Amplification/Maintenance), which limit the Reservation implementation. Being as it is, priority actions to be adopted were highlighted by the unit manager to carry out and ensure the environmental conservation effectiveness policy especially created for this location.
