Abstract

Despite an increase in the number and scope of rights enshrined at the international and national levels, States’ obligations vis-à-vis communities are often unfulfilled at the local level. Communities face inherent challenges when engaging with legal and policy frameworks that undermine their ability to ensure their local self-determination. Rights-based approaches to conservation are an attempt to address this issue, but remain a limited response if communities are not empowered to engage with implementing and other agencies as equal partners. By integrating legal empowerment with endogenous development processes, communities are better placed to overcome a variety of challenges associated with engaging with government agencies, researchers, and non-governmental organizations.
