Experience in Cooperation

The Shushensky Bor National Park of the Krasnoyarsk Territory was one of Russia's national parks to receive a Global Environmental Facility grant to draft and implement a management plan. This project is supported by the Biodiversity Conservation Center.

Work on the project is being done with the local administrations. This approach turns out to be productive as early as the draft stage.

For example, as a result of cooperation between the National Park, the Administration of the Yermakovsky District of the Krasnoyarsk Territory and the Administration of the Sayano-Shushensky State Biosphere Reserve, the Agreement Protocols creating the Yergaki Branch of the Shushensky Bor National Park within this district have already been signed.

The National Park and the Administration of the Yermakovsky District agreed on the following objectives for the Branch park:

  • To reserve parts of the District that are of special recreational and tourist value, as well as its resources;
  • To ensure centralized management of recreational resources of reserved areas in the interests of the district’s socio-economic development;
  • To publicize the reserved areas and resources so as to attract both investment and visitors.

The parties of the Agreement decided that the Branch will cover an overall area of 60,000 hectares. This area includes the Kulumys, Yergaki, and Metugul-Taiga mountain ridges.

The Shushensky Bor National Park assumed responsibility for preparing and coordinating the Branch’s environmental and economic foundation.

The Sayano-Shushensky Biosphere Reserve has joined the Agreement. In particular, both the National Park and the Reserve agreed that they should consider the formation of the Sedyye Sayany Biosphere Yard.

Thus, within the framework of the management plan, the National Park and its planning team succeeded in finding the solution to one of the park’s main problems: improving its own area so as to increase the recreational value of its resources. The solution to this problem was arrived at thanks to constructive cooperation between the Park Administration, other environmental organizations, and local administrations.
