Community Capacity for Implementing Clean Development Mechanism Projects Within Community Forests in Cameroon 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
There is a growing assumption that payments for environmental services including carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas emission
reduction provide an opportunity for poverty reduction and the enhancement of sustainable development within integrated natural
resource management approaches. Yet in experiential terms, community-based natural resource management implementation falls
short of expectations in many cases. In this paper, we investigate the asymmetry between community capacity and the Land Use
Land Use Change Forestry (LULUCF) provisions of the Clean Development Mechanism within community forests in Cameroon. We use
relevant aspects of the Clean Development Mechanism criteria and notions of “community capacity” to elucidate determinants
of community capacity needed for CDM implementation within community forests. The main requirements are for community capacity
to handle issues of additionality, acceptability, externalities, certification, and community organisation. These community
capacity requirements are further used to interpret empirically derived insights on two community forestry cases in Cameroon.
While local variations were observed for capacity requirements in each case, community capacity was generally found to be
insufficient for meaningful uptake and implementation of Clean Development Mechanism projects. Implications for understanding
factors that could inhibit or enhance community capacity for project development are discussed. We also include recommendations
for the wider Clean Development Mechanism/Kyoto capacity building framework. 相似文献

This paper addresses the challenge of appropriate governance of complexity and diversity in the Dutch national park of Alde Feanen. The issue is how to enhance ecosystem resilience. Our focus relates to a navigable waterway within the park that affects the natural values of the area. The governance assessment tool is used to assess the governance context of the waterway and ecosystem resilience in the area. The study shows that a lack of a long-term integrated vision makes the governance context less supportive. Such a vision could maximize the focus on the resilience of the park's nature and motivate actors to work towards a common future for a concerned area. However, institutional complexity, combined with institutional inertia, is revealed as a hindrance to the quality of governance and shapes a weak ability to adapt the current situation to move towards resilience. 相似文献

Building with Nature is a new approach to designing water infrastructure, one that seeks to realize socioeconomic project goals in harmony with the environment. The Dutch dredging industry is promoting its application in the Netherlands, but similar concepts are emerging internationally. The Working with Nature concept has been developed under the auspices of the World Association for Waterborne Transport Infrastructure, Engineering with Nature by the US Army Corps of Engineers, and Flanders Bays 2100 by a group of Belgian dredging companies and international consultants. The research discussed in this article focuses on the feasibility of implementing the Building with Nature approach in the context of EU Natura 2000 governance. The initial expectation of the industry was that Natura 2000 regulations would obstruct innovative Building with Nature attempts. The empirical evidence points to a shift toward Building with Nature have taken place on the governance and project levels, and the goals of Natura 2000 and Building with Nature converging in practice. Using specific project-level variables identified by researchers, guidance for project development in Natura 2000 areas was proposed. We conclude by discussing the implications of the research results for the dredging industry dealing with Natura 2000 regulations in Europe and similar overarching nature regulations elsewhere. 相似文献
