Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureRégler le conflit entre l'homme et la faune sauvage pour améliorer les moyens d'existence des populations 2021Les conflits homme-faune (CHF) ne sont pas une préoccupation récente. Diverses espèces d’animaux sauvages provoquent d’importants dégâts aux cultures et aux élevages, avec des incidences considérables sur la sécurité alimentaire, la sûreté et le bien-être des hommes. Parmi les causes sous-jacentes, on compte notamment l’augmentation de la population humaine, la hausse de la demande de ressources naturelles et la pression croissante exercée pour l’accès aux terres, en particulier à travers l’extension des voies de transport et l’expansion des activités agricoles et industrielles. Le travail de la FAO sur les CHF fait partie intégrante du programme de gestion de la faune sauvage et des aires protégées zones protégées, et il vise à contribuer à la réalisation de l'ODD 2 sur la faim zéro et de l'ODD 15 sur la vie sur terre. Cette publication fournit une vue d'ensemble visuellement facile à retenir des informations pertinentes sur les CHF afin d'engager et d'informer un large public sur la nature complexe de ce problème, ses causes, ses conséquences, des exemples de pays et des principes de bonne gestion.
