Talk:Community-based management

Ideas for editing

Community-based management (CBM) is a bottom up approach of organization which can be facilitated by an upper government structure but it aims for rural participation in the planning, development, management and policy making for a community as a whole (Mashinya & Balint, 2005; Senyk, 2005). The decentralization of management enables local people to deal with the unique social, political and ecological problems their community might face and find solutions ideal to their situation (Senyk, 2005; Hackel, 1999; Tocconi, 2007). Overwhelming national or local economic, political and/or social pressures can affect the efficiency of CBM as well as its long term application (Hackel, 1999).

(Idea is that CBM lays the groundwork on the style of management, but it does not offer one uniform solution for all communities as they all have different conditions of living… The current definition brings good points, but makes a few false assumptions on the environmental benefits which are not guaranteed and the sustainable angle.

Overwhelming national or local economic, political and/or social pressures can affect the efficiency of CBM as well as its long term application (Hackel, 1999).
