本文提出，生物多样性保护实践将受益于环境正义成果的评估，特别是在贫困和社会边缘化的背景下。虽然有一个现有的工作机构，含蓄地认为生物多样性保护措施所产生的正义和不公正，我们建议，更明确的正义评估可能会补充这项工作。我们制定了一些一般性的准则，这种评估，借鉴传统的社会和环境正义，强调考虑两种类型的正义结果的重要性：分配和承认。我们注意到这些不同的正义价值观的不对等性，这意味着它们不能相互权衡。我们尝试这些指导方针，通过在乌干达的布温迪坚不可摧的国家公园的案例研究。我们发现，该评估有助于我们确定保护的不可容忍的社会影响，特别是未能充分解决土著巴特瓦人的长期排斥和统治，并为保护如何更好地与环境正义的需要保持一致提供了建设性的见解。
This paper proposes that biodiversity conservation practice will benefit from assessment of environmental justice outcomes, especially in contexts of poverty and social marginalisation. Whilst there is an existing body of work that implicitly considers the justices and injustices arising from biodiversity conservation interventions, we suggest that a more explicit justice assessment might complement this work. We develop some general guidelines for such assessment, drawing on traditions of social and environmental justice, highlighting the importance of considering two types of justice outcome: distribution and recognition. We note the non-equivalence of these different justice values, implying that they cannot be traded-off against each other. We try out these guidelines through a case study of the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in Uganda. We find that the assessment helps us to identify intolerable social impacts of conservation, notably failures to adequately address the long-term impoverishment and domination of the indigenous Batwa people, and offers constructive insight for how conservation can better align with the need for environmental justice.
