Baird, I. 2000. Integrating community-based fisheries co-management and protected areas management in Laos PDR: Opportunities for advancement and obstacles to implementation. Series Evaluating Eden, EE DP 14. 19 p. London, United Kingdom: International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED). ISSN 15618382. Description: Between 1993 and 1998 several villages in Lao PDR established co-management regulations to manage and conserve inland aquatic resources sustainably. The paper presents detailed information regarding the development of the aquatic resource co-management and its monitoring system. While many of the lessons learned from the co-management experience are applicable to other parts of Laos and the region, unique conditions in different areas will require inventive approaches to meet local needs. Common property regimes can break down in crisis, but experience indicates that they can also be strengthened in response to resource management. It is argued that having the freedom and ability to be flexible with regards to management approaches is one of the biggest advantages of decentralized natural resource management systems. It encourages dynamic adaptive management, keeps regulations relevant, and is at least as critical to understand kinship, religious, linguistic, social, economic, political and cultural factors that affect resource management practices, as it is to understand ecological processes.

London, United Kingdom: International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED). ISSN 15618382. Description: CBNRM activities have increased considerably in both Botswana and Namibia in the last five years, supported by enabling legislation, financial support and 'light touch' facilitation. The paper gives a brief history of this establishment, covering: (1) socio-economic and environmental aspects, together with the policy and legal framework for CBNRM, (2) national level activities, (3) major implementing organizations, and (4) short 'project profiles' detailing the location, activities, and implementing partners of individual local projects. Important issues raised include: forms of participation of wildlife management, community dynamics, the institutional set-up, and indigenous community wildlife management initiatives. It is concluded that if CBNRM is to continue to develop, then a number of issues need to be addressed in each of the countries. The present situation in Botswana relies too much on the good will of the present government and the co-operation and capacity of district institutions. As a result, there is the danger of some marginal groups missing out on the benefits and in some areas issues, such as the resettlement of certain communities, are still seen as the solution to conservation/tourism development problems. In Namibia, though the policy and legislative environment goes further than any other in southern Africa in giving flexible but secure rights over wildlife and tourism directly to local communities, CBNRM has still to address some major issues and problems. Not least of these, is the need for a more secure and exclusive land tenure and the problems of equity in ensuring that those who pay the cost of wildlife conservation obtain the benefits.

Description: AIDS affects both the people whom land reform is intended to benefit, and the people staffing the institutions that support land reform. The most productive age group, 25-45 years old, is hardest hit. The susceptibility of the productive age group means communities that have access to resources are faced with a decline of skills and labor, along with a depletion of financial and reproductive assets. This undermines their ability to make use of natural resources. Keywords: AIDS, HIV, land reform, poverty reduction. [download]

Description: In most of the semi-arid regions of India, inadequate availability of water is the most limiting factor in agricultural and rural development. The NM Sadguru Water and Development Foundation based at Dahod, Gujarat, initiated a community-based innovative experiment in harvesting and utilizing the rain water in the mid seventies in a semi-arid and tribal area in the State of Gujarat. The paper traces the evolution of a community-based resource development and management approach, based on field experience combined with modern technical know-how. This 'Sadguru' model is then presented as an example of NRM with high community involvement which has the potential to become an instrument of sustainable agricultural development in developing countries.

Helsinki, Finland. ISSN 0015-0010. Description: Two key variables, space and gender, are used to examine the hypothesis that development interventions change who has access to, and control over, natural resources in the locality of the intervention. The impacts of development interventions on the natural resource management systems that existed prior to the intervention are examined. Development interventions enter a space within which certain resources are controlled by specific interest groups, and these interventions cause changes in that space. Rural women and men, individually and as communities, develop strategies based on the resources they have access to and control over. Any change in those resources will impact on their ability to control development in their own community. The concept of Specific Interest Space (SIS) was developed to identify the space an individual or a community perceives itself to have control over. The analysis is informed by two case studies: the Bura Fuelwood Plantation Project in Kenya, and the Water Supply and Sanitation Project in Ohangwena Region in Namibia.
"Village by-laws in Tanzania." 1969. Description: Outlines the role of village by-laws in CBNRM in Tanzania. Village by-laws can be a useful mechanism for local communities, through their village councils, to make and enforce rules concerning their natural resources. It is shown, however, that by-laws by themselves do little to safeguard local natural resources if they are not created in a participatory planning process that reflects the interests of the local community. Keywords: assembly, council, institutions, law.
