Community-based natural resource
management (CBRNM) aims to realize sustainable management of
resources and improvements in livelihood. A central focus is
the empowerment of indigenous and local communities through
customary or devolved rights to common pool resources. Less
attention is given to the extent to which inclusive forms of
governance are realized in CBNRM. Democratic innovations are
institutions designed explicitly to increase and deepen
citizen participation in political decision-making. A number
of exemplary cases around the world provide evidence that it
is possible to empower citizens in ways that are inclusive
and achieve desirable outcomes such as redistribution,
recognition of marginalized groups, and improved
livelihoods. By clarifying elements of the design of
democratic innovations - in particular goods, tasks,
mechanisms, and co-design - it is possible to understand how
effective forms of participatory governance can be crafted.
With careful attention to the endogenous practices of
indigenous and local communities and the governance
structures imposed by public authorities, CBNRM
practitioners can draw on these elements of democratic
design to craft forms of inclusive participatory governance
that promote sustainable management of resources and improve
livelihoods. A program of collaboration between CBNRM and
democratic innovations practitioners will contribute to
improvements amongst both communities of practice and the
communities they serve. |
