Abstract:

Internationally there is an increasing focus on involving local communities in natural resource management and monitoring. Monitoring methods which are professionally driven appear to be inadequate to deal with the monitoring of natural resource use and biodiversity conservation, globally. This is especially evident in areas such as South African rural communal land. Two community based natural resource management (CBNRM) programmes in areas which are communally governed in the Eastern Cape, South Africa, namely Nqabara and Machubeni, were used as part of this research study.

Development thinkers and practitioners have been pondering over community participation for the last decades.

The Sangwe Communal Lands is one such area that researchers in the last decades have been pondering over the role of community participation in project sustainability.

In the semi-arid Limari River basin, Region of Coquimbo in northern Chile sixty percent of years receive less than the long-term average annual precipitation, and dry spells tend to be multi-year. Below-normal precipitation is not always associated with ENSO cycles, but shows a high correlation to El Nino 3 region sea surface temperature.Since early during the colonial period, land in Coquimbo was utilized as a source of minerals, meat, wheat, and timber for smelters.

Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 2015.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Rangelands in the semi-arid and arid regions of the world support livelihoods through their provision of multiple goods and services. Livestock production, for example, occurs in rangelands both as extensive ranching under freehold tenure and as collective ranching under communal tenure systems. However, the sustainability of rangelands is threatened and has been a major concern this century, leading to a variety of interventions. Holistic management (HM) is one such example, designed by its proponents as a panacea to halt degra

Abstract:

A great deal of research has demonstrated that Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) play a crucial role in the livelihoods of the rural poor, and are particularly important to the most marginalised people throughout the developing world. However, these livelihood benefits are not without cost to the natural resource base that rural communities depend so heavily upon. The continued dependence on NTFPs as a major livelihood source must be contingent upon the minimisation of the level of disturbance created through this dependency. This study assesses the level of disturbance created through natura

<p>Communal land tenure reform in Zambia is the overarching subject of study in this thesis. It is an important issue across southern Africa, raising questions of governance, livelihood security and conservation. WIldlife is a 'fugitive' and 'mobile' resource that traverses the spatially fixed tenure of communal lands, national parks and public forest reserves. The management of wildlife therefore requires that spatially defined proprietorial rights accommodate wildlife's temporal forage use. Land may bebounded in tenure, but if bounded by fences its utility as wildlife habitat is undermined.

Abstract:

Under what conditions can peace be established after violent communal conflict? This question has received limited research attention to date, despite the fact that communal conflicts kill thousands of people each year and often severely disrupt local livelihoods. This dissertation analyzes how political dynamics affect prospects for peace after communal conflict. It does so by studying the role of the central government, local state and non-state actors, and the interactions between these actors and the communal groups that are engaged in armed conflict. A particular focus is on the role of p

The state's planning system is examined to see what mechanisms it possesses for dealing with communal or any other unconventional development, and what the main planning constraints are. A case study of an actual development application for a rural land sharing community is examined.

Abstract:

There are challenges to be addressed if South Africa is to reach its full potential in exploiting wind energy resources. One of such challenges is communal land ownership, which is used for the development of wind energy in rural areas. Often, communal lands have no formal land structures, ownership or title deeds to support the individuals and communities that claim possession thereof. This challenge of communal land ownership and the associated risks impact upon investments by independent power producers in wind energy infrastructure. Land in South Africa remains a highly sensitive issue giv

Abstract:

Le déferlement urbain des grandes agglomérations sur leur périphérie est remarquable au Bénin, ces dernières décennies suite à l’évolution croissante de leurs populations. Cette nouvelle dynamique spatiale amène un changement des pratiques foncières et à un étalement urbain dans presque toutes les communes périurbaines. La production foncière aujourd’hui est basée sur les règles modernes. Mais le statut des terres dans certaines de ces communes périurbaines notamment celles qui sont à forte tradition Vodoun comme Adjarra et Avrankou suscite une interrogation quant à l’influence de la productio

Abstract:

Thesis (M. Dev.) -- University of Limpopo, 2013<br>Recent changes in the allocation of land through the results of land redistribution have compelled members of communities to form committees, that is, Communal Property Associations (CPAs) that would be responsible for managing the claimed land. The Maruleng Local Municipality was not excluded from this process. Five of the CPAs have been formed under the above mentioned municipality to manage claimed land. The research investigated the impact of performance management on the Moletele CPA’s performance at Maruleng Local Municipality of the Li
