Unveiling pervasive assumptions
This paper reflects on the continued persistence of the idea in conservation research and practice that poverty drives biodiversity loss (the poverty-biodiversity loss association [PBLA]). We draw on evidence to show how the PBLA has proven resistant to counter-evidence and is particularly visible at local-level implementation, and is often implicit in conservation strategies. We untangle three underlying reasons that help to explain why the PBLA…
Exploring local ecological knowledge to inform the conservation of the Endangered and understudied Preuss's monkey (Allochrocebus preussi) in Ebo forest, Cameroon
This study explored local ecological knowledge held by local people bordering Cameroon's Ebo forest, in view to evaluate the possible contribution of this set of knowledge to conserve the understudied Preuss's monkey (Allochrocebus preussi). Data were collected through interviews using semi-structured questionnaires, administered to 262 households from 17 villages of permanent settlements purposely selected based on their closeness and dependence…
Health Challenges and Assets of Forest-Dependent Populations in Cameroon
Visions from Local Populations for Livelihood-Based Solutions to Promote Forest Conservation Sustainability in the Congo Basin
Indigenous Peoples' Concerns About Loss of Forest Knowledge
Although indigenous populations' participatory rights are recognised as a worldwide priority in forest management, local practices vary in interpretation, scope, and efficacy. The next generation of sustainable forest policies will require a greater degree of self-determination from indigenous groups (i.e., the ability for use, ownership, management, and control of their traditional lands and resources). Our case study provides insights into how …
Complementarity of two impact assessment tools
Two impact assessment tools, Toro’s recent method and Leopold’s matrix, were used in a complementary manner to predict the impacts of constructing a hydroelectric power plant in eastern Cameroon. We chose these two tools because of their relative simplicity, objectivity and good weighting of environmental indicator values compared to others. While the recent Toro’s method was more effective in terms of predicting impact importance, we found that …
Socio-Economic impacts of protected areas on people living close to the Mount Cameroon National Park
In Africa, many people depend on their surrounding environment as a major source of livelihood, as forests provide important cultural and economic resources for the rural and urban poor Sub-Saharan Africa has been the site of intense conservation planning since the colonial era Under the auspices of wilderness protection, colonial authorities established national parks largely for the purpose of hunting and tourism, while forcibly evicting indige…
