RESUMO:

freshwater systems represent the most threatened environments in the world, with considerably higher extinction rates than terrestrial environments. These systems can be described as social ecological systems where social, biological and biophysical relationships are complex and reciprocal. A good example of this complexity is in the Amazonian floodplains, where a high biological and ethnic diversity coexists. Establish effective conservation plans for the Amazon floodplains is a Homeric task, since the threats in these environments continues to grow. In the face of government failure in terms of financial and human resources, we argue that the inclusion of local communities in the conservation process can be an effective strategy. These community-based conservation schemes have been implemented in various ecosystems in the world, aimed at decentralization of conservation and empowerment of local communities. However, the global literature lacks studies evaluating the effects of these schemes in the light of the main objectives of the millennium: biodiversity conservation, poverty reduction and improving the quality of life of traditional communities. In this thesis we evaluated two solid community-based conservation systems in the Brazilian Amazon, the community management of the Arapaima and management of the Amazon turtle. Each chapter of this thesis brings a different approach to this problem. Finally, we conclude that Brazilian society is facing two very interesting models of conservation that still need adjustments, but have incredible potential to contribute to the conservation of floodplains and improve the quality of life of local communities.
