geography > national parks

  • National parks are protected areas of natural beauty (example: Heathland).
  • National parks are not fenced off and people live and work in them.
  • Each national park is managed by a national park authority (NPA), which works to balance the sides to conflicts.
Aims of national parks:
  • To protect and enhance the natural beauty and wildlife.
  • To promote (make known) the understanding and enjoyment of the parks.
  • To foster the social and economic well-being of the communities living in the national parks.
​Conflicts in national parks:
  • A conflict arises when people do something that aggrevates somebody else; in a national park, conflict may arise between the main users.
  • For example: Fishermen might conflict with canoers because the canoers scare away the fish but canoers might conflict because they just want to have some fun.
  • In national parks, conflict can be managed in many different ways. To manage the fishermen and canoers conflict, the NPA could say that fishermen are aloud to fish at one time of the year and the canoers are aloud to go canoeing at the other time of the year. They could also manage conflict through different times of the day, zoning, giving priorities to certain groups of through rule enforcement.
