ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
International Standards for the Practice of Ecological Restoration represents
the outcome of consultation across many professionals and practitioners
within the Society for Ecological Restoration and their peers in the global
scientific and conservation communities. However, as described in more
detail below, it is intended as the First Edition of a living document that will
improve and expand as the family of restoration practitioners makes use of
and provides feedback on this and future editions.
DOCUMENTS
This document draws upon and joins SER's collection of foundation
documents (see www.ser.org): including the SER International Primer on
Ecological Restoration (SER 2004), Guidelines for Developing and Managing
Restoration Projects (Clewell et al. 2005), Ecological Restoration - a Means
of Conserving Biodiversity and Sustaining Livelihoods (Gann & Lamb 2006),
and the IUCN's (International Union for Conservation of Nature) Ecological
Restoration for Protected Areas: Principles, Guidelines and Best Practices
(Keenleyside et. al. 2012). It also utilizes the editorial Ecosystem Restoration
is Now a Global Priority (Aronson & Alexander 2013), the book Ecological
Restoration: Principles, Values and Structure of an Emerging Profession
(Clewell & Aronson 2013) and specifically draws on interpretations contained
within the National Standards for the Practice of Ecological Restoration in
Australia (McDonald et al. 2016). Many other documents have influenced
the development of this document, and the authors acknowledge a debt to
scores of published and unpublished documents that have influenced our
thinking.
