Titel   Le nouveau code forestier congolais et les droits des communautés des forêts
Auteur/Redactie Barume, Albert Kwokwo
Editie PDF
Uitgave Kinshasa
Jaar 2004-11-17
Pagina's 23
Samenvatting The paper considers in detail the potential impacts of the new DRC Forest Code on local forest communities, with particular emphasis on the rights and livelihoods of 'pygmy' communities.
The paper finds that there are numerous grounds for concern over the Code's potential effects on Congo's forest people. In particular, there is no specific provision for the particular needs and conditions of 'pygmy' people. The Code's general provisions for community access to, and control over, forest resources are likely to prove problematic.
Paper prep. for the Groupe de Travail Forêts / Rainforest Foundation seminar for DRC civil society on the Forest Code and the norms of application, Kinshasa, 17-19 Nov 2003.
