Dossier "Use and Conservation of Biodiversity", V.5 I.3 (2016)

Biodiversity, or biological diversity, is defined by the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) as the variability among living organisms from all sources, including terrestrial, marine and other aquatic ecosystems, and the ecological complexes of which they are part. It covers the diversity between species, within species, and ecosystems. Biodiversity can be seen in its wild aspect and as domesticated biodiversity, agro-biodiversity. Both have a practically endless range of combinations, organized into highly complex webs, relationships that reflect the diversity in nature and in the interactions between humans and nature, ethnocultural diversity. The biodiversity web is threatened, at all levels, and as without it there is no life or ecological processes, the great challenge is to know how to equate the use and conservation of biodiversity that remains. This dossier is open to articles that discuss this topic of Use and Biodiversity Conservation.
