Abstract

The object of research is biodiversity and humanistic ecology values of the wetlands and the negative impacts of the socio-economic development on wetland ecosystem. Propose practical solutions for the conservation, management and sustainable use of the wetland resources for the sustainable development of Vietnam. Vietnam’s wetland area is about 12 million hectares, accounting for one third of the natural area. The wetland ecosystem in Vietnam contains a high level of biodiversity, contains various important ecological functions and values, directly affects people's livelihoods, and plays a major role in the country’s socio-cultural life. Vietnam has 9 sites designated as Wetlands of International Importance (Ramsar Sites – The Wetlands of International Importance). However, some wetland areas are increasingly degraded in both quality and quantity of species due to over-exploitation and over-use. In this study, utilized various research methods including desk research, secondary analysis, and Participatory Rapid Appraisal (PRA), which is carried out to collect data from decision makers and community in Xuan Thuy National Park (Nam Dinh province) and in Tram Chim National Park (Dong Thap province). As a result of the research shown that the major challenges to wetlands in Vietnam include: unsustainable exploitation; imbalanced utilisation and conservation of wetlands; lack of comprehensive wetlands data to meet the requirements of wetland management and sustainable development. The conservation and use of the wetland areas in Vietnam must be carried out on the principle of approaching the ecosystem, ensuring the maintenance of the entire structure, functions, ecological characteristics and biodiversity of the wetland areas. For which the authors recommend increasing the role and participation of the communities living in and around the wetland areas and stakeholders in the conservation and sustainable use of the wetlands. Ensure a fair and equitable benefit sharing mechanism based on equal rights and obligations among stakeholders in the use of wetland ecosystem services
分析越南湿地的生物多样性和社会经济价值
研究对象是湿地的生物多样性和人文生态价值,以及社会经济发展对湿地生态系统的负面影响。为越南的可持续发展提出保护、管理和可持续利用湿地资源的实际解决方案。越南的湿地面积约为1200万公顷,占自然面积的三分之一。越南的湿地生态系统具有高度的生物多样性,包含各种重要的生态功能和价值,直接影响人们的生计,并在国家的社会文化生活中发挥重要作用。越南有9处湿地被指定为国际重要湿地(拉姆萨尔湿地-国际重要湿地)。然而,由于过度开发和利用,一些湿地地区的物种质量和数量日益退化。在本研究中,采用了多种研究方法,包括桌面研究、二次分析和参与式快速评估(PRA),在南定省轩翠国家公园和东塔省Tram Chim国家公园收集决策者和社区的数据。研究结果表明,越南湿地面临的主要挑战包括:不可持续的开发;湿地的不均衡利用及保育;缺乏全面的湿地数据,无法满足湿地管理和可持续发展的要求。越南湿地的保护和利用必须在接近生态系统的原则下进行,确保维护湿地地区的整体结构、功能、生态特征和生物多样性。为此,作者建议提高生活在湿地地区及其周围的社区和利益相关者在保护和可持续利用湿地方面的作用和参与。确保利益相关者在利用湿地生态系统服务方面权利义务平等的基础上,建立公平公正的利益分享机制
