Indique cuáles han sido los resultados/logros obtenidos en el marco de las actividades realizadas:
There has been some good dialogue at the Global level, but the resources have not been committed by major conservation organisations to make this a success.
There have been some slow advances at the local level: e.g. in Kenya in relation to the Ogiek, but the Government's forceful evictions of the Sengwer - including shooting and killing - demonstrate that conservation organisations and international donors must take a firm approach and ally with human rights organisations and communities to ensure the successful securing of community and ecological well-being.
Meanwhile in DRC the only reason for the possible resumption of an effective dialogue in relation to the Batwa appears to be because PNKB/ ICCN has gone as far as killing a Batwa man. That such dialogue is not pursued ad a matter of course here, in Thailand, in Cameroon, etc,. but instead often appears to be sacrificed in order to please governments and other powerful players, is a very disturbing possible conclusion.
¿Qué esfuerzos se están llevando a cabo para superar dichos obstáculos?:
Challenges remain huge: Seeking paradigm change: NOT a question of conflict between communities and conservation, BUT forceful appropriation by powerful forces Lacked financial resources and strong institutional support. The 3 WMs have not always received support from key actors (e.g. ESARO in Kenya, ICCN in DRC)
