This book was released on 2003 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans le pass� r�cent, on a assist� � une acc�l�ration notable des r�formes l�gislatives en mati�re foresti�re dans le monde. Reconnaissant de plus en plus les int�r�ts multiples li�s � la foresterie, le droit forestier est plus attentif aux fonctions sociales et environnementales des for�ts, et il accorde une importance accrue � la durabilit� de leur gestion, avec la participation d'un large �ventail d'acteurs publics et priv�s. Les domaines dans lesquels les lois foresti�res ont �t� g�n�ralement r�orient�es comprennent notamment la gestion foresti�re locale et priv�e, les fonctions �cologiques des for�ts, la planification de l'am�nagement forestier et les contrats d'exploitation des for�ts. Cette �tude l�gislative essaie de d�gager, sur une base r�gionale, les tendances majeures des l�gislations foresti�res contemporaines. La pr�sente publication analyse un �chantillon de lois foresti�res d'Europe et d'Afrique. Un pr�c�dent volume (Etude l�gislative 66) a �t� consacr� aux l�gislations am�ricaines et asiatiques.

Book Gouverner les for  ts Africaines    l     re de la mondialisation

Download or read book Gouverner les for ts Africaines l re de la mondialisation written by Laura A. German and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: De nombreux pays dans le monde sont engagés dans des processus de décentralisation et la plupart des États africains sont confrontés à de graves problèmes de gouvernance forestière, depuis la répartition des avantages à l’illégalité et à la gestion durable des forêts. Ce livre résume les expériences à ce jour concernant l’ampleur et la nature de la décentralisation ainsi que les conséquences de celle-ci, dont la plupart suggèrent une sous-performance des réformes de gouvernance. Il examine également la viabilité des différents instruments de gouvernance dans le contexte d’une faible gouvernance et de pressions commerciales accrues sur les forêts.Les résultats sont regroupés en deux domaines thématiques: d’une part la décentralisation, les moyens de subsistance et la gestion des forêts, d’autre part les échanges internationaux, la finance et les réformes de gouvernance du secteur forestier. Les auteurs examinent les diverses forces qui façonnent le secteur forestier, notamment la théorie et la pratique de la décentralisation, l’usurpation d’autorité, la corruption et l’illégalité, les mécanismes inéquitables de répartition des bénéfices et l’expansion du commerce international du bois et des crédits carbone, puis discutent de leurs effets sur les moyens de subsistance, l’état de la forêt et l’équité. Cet ouvrage se base sur de précédentes publications ayant examiné les différentes dimensions de la décentralisation et les perspectives des autres régions du monde ; il extrait ces dimensions et perspectives des autres régions du monde ainsi que les dimensions de la gouvernance forestière qui sont à la fois uniques à l’Afrique et représentatives de mécanismes mondiaux plus larges. Les auteurs fondent leur analy se sur la théorie pertinente et exposent les implications de leurs résultats en matière de politique et de pratique

Book The domestic market for small scale chainsaw milling in the Democratic Republic of Congo

Download or read book The domestic market for small scale chainsaw milling in the Democratic Republic of Congo written by Guillaume Lescuyer and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2014-09-09 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Besides the business enterprises in Bandundu province that use small-scale logging permits (PCAs) illegally, there is a national artisanal sector composed of individual chainsaw millers who supply the domestic market and certain neighbouring countries. This sector is still essentially informal. Our year-long monitoring of markets and transiting points for chainsaw timber brought out the substantial development of this activity over the last 15 years. At present more than a million cubic meters of chainsaw timber are produced in DRC every year, of which 85% is to meet the national demand. The production in Roundwood Equivalents of chainsaw timber – estimated at 3.4 million cubic metres per annum – is 13 times higher than the total formal production of wood products in DRC. The domestic markets of Kinshasa and eastern DRC generate sales of over 100 millions US dollars per year and yield profits estimated at 25 million dollars. The local populations benefit most from chainsaw milling and receive close to 50 million US dollars per year. As for job creation, the rural and urban artisanal timber production sectors combined offered at least 25 000 direct jobs in the country.

Book Ma  trise de l espace et d  veloppement en Afrique

Download or read book Ma trise de l espace et d veloppement en Afrique written by and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2010 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis les années 1960, suite à la construction progressive de l'Union Européenne et, bien après, à l'émergence du phénomène de la mondialisation, les dimensions spatiales de développement sont devenues multiples. Aux anciens concepts comme le pays, la région, le territoire national... sont venus s'ajouter des espaces d'intégration régionale et de la mondialisation. De même, la démocratisation de l'Etat et de la société, amorcée dans la plupart des pays africains depuis 1990, a entraîné la promotion de tous petits espaces de commandement issus de la décentralisation. Désormais, les espaces de développement deviennent plus complexes. Faut-il aller de " l'Etat-nation aux Etats-régions " ou de la " Région aux territoires " ? Ce sont là autant de questions qui se posent actuellement à la géographie. Ce volume, Maîtrise de l'espace et développement en Afrique : état des lieux, a pour objectif de faire prendre conscience aux géographes africains des nouveaux enjeux et défis auxquels est désormais confrontée leur discipline. Que signifie désormais l'espace de développement ? Quelle est sa portée économique et politique ? Ces questions sont d'autant plus importantes à soulever qu'en Afrique, l'organisation de l'espace dépend de deux logiques : formelle et informelle.

Book An Introduction to the African Convention on the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources

Download or read book An Introduction to the African Convention on the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources written by World Conservation Union and published by IUCN. This book was released on 2009 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The African Convention on the conservation of nature and natural resources was adopted in 1968 in Algiers. Considered the most forward looking regional agreement of the time, it influenced significantly the development of environmental law in Africa. Two and a half decades of intense developments in international environmental law made it necessary to revise this treaty, update its provisions and enlarge its scope. This was undertaken under the auspices of the African Union (previously OAU), and the revision was adopted by its Heads of State and Government in July 2003 in Maputo. The introduction provides an overview of this new international treaty, as well as a commentary to each of its provisions.

Download or read book Illegal Logging written by Luca Tacconi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-04 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This book carefully blends conceptual insights with extensive empirical evidence to navigate the reader through an issue that is still poorly understood [and is] a valuable reference for the development practitioner to understand the fundamental causes of illegal logging, its myriad consequences and the policy choices available to address the problem' Nalin Kishor, Forest Law Enforcement and Governance Coordinator, The World Bank 'An excellent resource for those working to conserve and sustainably manage forests worldwide. It offers an extensive and comprehensive study of illegal logging, bringing together the knowledge and views of experts who examine its roots and social, economic and environmental implications. One of its important contributions is to show that, unless coupled with reform of forestry regulations to take into account local people, law enforcement to curb illegal logging can negatively impact them. Therefore, any effective and fair approach to the problem needs to involve governments, forestry operators and local communities alike' Gonzalo Oviedo, Senior Social Policy Advisor, IUCN In many countries illegal logging now accounts for a large share of the harvest. Once cut, illegal logs feed an insatiable demand for exotic hardwoods in developed and developing countries. The result has been loss of both revenue and biodiversity, and consequently the issue has risen to the top of the global forest policy agenda as one of the major threats to forests, and donors and national governments are starting to develop initiatives to control illegal logging. Yet for such a massive illegal trade, there is surprisingly limited knowledge available as to the major causes of illegal logging and its impacts on biodiversity, people and livelihoods and national economies, and thus plenty of speculation and action without evidence. It is clear that while illegal logging does have negative impacts, it also, controversially, and perhaps paradoxically, benefits many stakeholders, including local communities. This book, written by the world's foremost experts, examines the key issues including law and enforcement, supply and demand, corruption, forest certification, poverty, local livelihoods, international trade and biodiversity conservation. It includes key case studies from forest-rich hotspots in North, South and Central America, equatorial Africa and Indonesia. While there are clearly no easy answers, this book sorts fact from fiction and explores the many dimensions of the causes, impacts and implications for forests, people, livelihoods and forest policy.
