IIED Issue paper no. 141
Sabrina Beeler
This study was carried out in the context of the Helvetas Mali development programme “Conflict prevention and management in Kaarta and Fuladugu”, whose aim is to improve relations between farmers and herders. This paper presents the result of research conducted in 2003-2004 on natural resource management (NRM) and conflict over the use of natural resources in the regions of Kaarta and Fuladugu.
The objective of this study is to assess the local institutions that regulate common pool resources, identify the causes of conflict and analyse the mechanisms for resolving them.
The Pastoral Charter and other legal frameworks are discussed, as well as mechanisms for conflict resolution and participation.
