Opportunité ou chimère pour les femmes du Bassin du Congo ?
Cette note thématique rédigée à l’initiative de Fern, a été élaborée dans le cadre de l’initiative CoNGOs (Collaboration d’ONG en faveur de moyens de subsistance durables et équitables dans les forêts du bassin du Congo) qui plaide pour une « foresterie communautaire »1 à travers laquelle les communautés ont le droit de gérer les ressources forestières dont elles dépendent, en vue d’améliorer leurs conditions de vie et en particulier celles des femmes.

For more than five years, the Women’s Land Tenure Security (WOLTS) Project has been investigating the intersection of gender and land relations in mining-affected pastoralist communities in Mongolia and Tanzania. The aim has been to develop a methodology for long-term community engagement and capacity building to protect and support the land rights of all vulnerable people – thus to fully mainstream attention to gender equity in land tenure governance within a framework that would facilitate improvements in community land rights across the board.

The purpose of this paper is to highlight the detrimental impact of land tenure insecurity on deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon. It is related to recent controversies about the detrimental impact of land laws on deforestation, which seem to legitimize land encroachments. The latter is mainly the result of land tenure insecurity which is a key characteristic of this region and results from a long history of interactions between rural social unrest and land reforms or land laws. A simple model is developed where strategic interactions between farmers lead to excessive deforestation.
