Abstract

The study "Contribution of Security Sector Governance to the Protection of National Parks from the Perspectives of Security, Community Livelihoods, and the Environment: Serra do Divisor, Brazil" is part of an international comparative research project coordinated by the Geneva Centre for Security Sector Governance (DCAF). The project aims to examine how security sector governance and reform can contribute to the protection of national parks through an integrated approach that encompasses security, environmental conservation, and community livelihoods. Serra do Divisor National Park (SDNP), located in the state of Acre, Brazil, constitutes one of the project's three case studies, alongside protected areas in Benin and Nepal. The international comparative study seeks to provide practical guidance for practitioners and policymakers working at the intersection of security, conservation, and the sustainable development of protected areas. The study was carried out within the framework of a partnership with DCAF, with the support of the German Federal Foreign Office, the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands, whose institutional contributions, continued support, and thematic expertise were instrumental to the development and successful implementation of this initiative.
