1933 AD–1936 AD
London Convention on African fauna and flora
Climate & environment · Conservación · Derecho ambiental · Conservación colonial · Fauna silvestre
The 1933 London Convention, in force from 1936, proposed national parks, strict reserves, hunting controls, and trophy-trade regulation to protect fauna and flora, particularly in Africa. Its text expressly contemplated colonies, overseas territories, and mandates. It is therefore also evidence of the colonial framework of part of early international conservation; the treaty organized reserves and species rather than a procedure for community consent or land tenure.
