Políticas de Conservación de Manglar en el Golfo de Guayaquil Mangrove Conservation Policies in the Gulf of Guayaquil

Abstract:

The present work aims to identify and explain current policies related to mangrove conservation in the Gulf of Guayaquil, which is a coastal region hosting more than 70% of Ecuadors mangroves. The main assumption underlying this effort is the notion that mangrove conservation might be critically linked to subjective measures; these measures would better the welfare for populations that live in this ecosystem and depend on it. Based on the evidence of recent studies an institutional economic analysis was conducted; this analysis used the Situation, Structure and Performance framework. Results support the original assumption. Challenges were also identified for the continuity of current policies and new urgent needs for future research.
