あらすじ・解説
In this episode of the Co-management Commons Podcast, we get to compare and contrast two different co-management systems. Dr. Denis Ndeloh shares his experiences with wildlife management in Nunavut, Canada and Cameroon. He compares top-down wildlife management approaches in Cameroon versus more collaborative co-management systems in Nunavut and Canada. Dr. Ndeloh stresses the importance of understanding and integrating traditional ecological knowledge from indigenous communities and shares his research journey including the challenges and lessons learned while conducting research on traditional ecological knowledge in Cameroon. Dr. Ndeloh also stresses the need to suspend personal beliefs and truly trust indigenous knowledge systems for decision-making. He is a great storyteller. Stay tuned until the end for a transformative story shared by a research participant in Cameroon about a chimpanzee encounter that changed his worldview.
