RESUMO Processos participativos são fundamentais para o êxito de projetos de turismo de base comunitária realizados com comunidades habitantes em unidades de conservação. Os processos formais e legalmente institucionalizados muitas vezes são insuficientes para gerar inclusão e participação social de fato, uma vez que podem deixar escapar questões importantes das complexas relações existentes nesses contextos. Com base na experiência de dois projetos – um na Reserva Extrativista do Rio Unini (AM), e outro na Floresta Nacional do Amapá (AP), buscou-se refletir sobre a importância do diálogo como alicerce na emersão de processos participativos nos projetos realizados com comunidades. O artigo tece uma síntese conceitual de turismo de base comunitária. Além disso, são apresentados os atores sociais do diálogo: as comunidades tradicionais, as organizações não governamentais e as instituições representativas do Estado. Indica-se a necessidade de inovação conceitual e prática no que se refere aos processos ditos participativos realizados com comunidades no campo das unidades de conservação. A metodologia dos projetos consistiu em pesquisa bibliográfica, entrevistas-diálogo, visitas de campo e oficinas. Dialogue and participatory processes in tourism projects with communities in Protected Areas of the Brazilian Amazon ABSTRACT Real participatory processes are fundamental to the success of community-based tourism projects conducted in protected areas. Formal and legally institutionalized processes are insufficient to create the genuine inclusion and participation that they propose, for they miss subtle details of the complex and important relations existent in these contexts. Based on the experience of two projects - one in the Extractive Reserve of River Unini, Amazonas state, and another in the National Forest of Amapá, Amapá state – this research sought to analyze the importance of dialogue as the foundation for the emergence of real participatory process projects with traditional communities. This work briefly synthesizes the concepts of community-based tourism. It also presents the dialogue among the social actors: traditional communities, non-governmental organizations and institutions representing the State. Final thoughts include the need for conceptual innovation and practice with regard to the so-called participatory processes that are recommended when dealing with traditional communities in relation to protected areas, along with possible practical guidance. The methodologies of those projects consisted in bibliography research, dialogue-interview, fieldworks and workshops.

The plant biomass for protected areas was maximum in summer (1221.56 g/m2) and minimum in winter (290.62 g/m2) as against grazed areas having maximum value 590.81 g/m2 in autumn and minimum 183.75 g/m2 in winter. Study revealed that at Protected site (Kanidajan) the above ground biomass ranged was from a minimum (1.11 t ha-1) in the spring season to a maximum (4.58 t ha-1) in the summer season while at Grazed site (Yousmarag), the aboveground biomass varied from a minimum (0.54 t ha-1) in the spring season to a maximum of 1.48 t ha-1 in summer seasonandat Seed sown site (Badipora), the lowest value of aboveground biomass obtained was 4.46 t ha-1 in spring while as the highest (7.98 t ha-1) was obtained in summer.

Most studies of cetacean habitat use do not consider the influence of anthropogenic activities. We investigated the influence of environmental and anthropogenic variables on habitat use by humpback Megaptera novaeangliae and Bryde’s whales Balaenoptera brydei off the coast of the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro. Although there are 2 marine protected areas (MPAs) in this area, few data are available on cetacean habitat use or on the overlap of different cetacean species within these MPAs. Our aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of the MPAs and propose a buffer zone to better protect the biodiversity of the study area. We conducted systematic surveys and developed spatial eigenvector generalized linear models to characterize habitat use by the species in the study area. Habitat use by humpback whales was influenced only by depth, whereas for Bryde’s whales there was the additional influence of anthropogenic variables. For Bryde’s whales, which use the area for feeding, sea surface temperature and the distance to anchorages had a major influence on habitat use. We also showed that neither of the MPAs in the study area adequately protects the hotspots of either whale species. Most of the humpback whale grid cells with high sighting predictions were located within 2 km of the MPAs, while areas of high sighting prediction of Bryde’s whales were located up to 5 km from the MPAs, closer to beaches. Our findings provide important insights for the delimitation of protected areas and zoning of the MPAs.
