AMONGST THE CHALLENGES OF COMPREHENDING and strengthening common property resource management systems in Africa, none seems more pertinent than understanding the factors that make community institutions effective as resource managers. Effective, that is, in terms of elaborating and achieving uses of natural resources that are profitable AND sustainable, managerially robust, reasonably equitable, politically viable, and cost effective. This commentary focuses on the design of community institutions under the community-based natural resource management (CBNRM) programs being launched across the African continent in the wildlife, forestry, and related fields. It reviews guiding principles that have emerged in Southern Africa and especially in the pioneering CAMPFIRE program of Zimbabwe, pointing up several future challenges.
