An End to Unjust Conservation? (commentary)

The San peoples of the Kalahari have suffered as a result
of exclusionary forms of conservation. CC Harry Jonas.  

In September 2014, events took place in three different parts of the world, which together highlight the multifaceted relationship between human rights and conservation, write Dilys Roe and Harry Jonas. First, in New York, the UN General Assembly adopted the Outcome Document of the World Conference on Indigenous Peoples (World Conference). The document reaffirms and recognizes, among other things: a) support for the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples; b) commitments to obtain free and informed consent prior to the approval of any project affecting Indigenous peoples' lands or territories and other resources, c) commitments to acknowledge, advance and adjudicate the rights of Indigenous peoples pertaining to lands, territories and resources; and d) the significant contribution of Indigenous peoples to the promotion of sustainable development and ecosystem management, including their associated knowledge.

Inaugural Conference on Land Policy in Africa Held in Addis Ababa

The inaugural Conference on Land Policy inAfrica concluded on Friday 14 November 2014 after three full days of presentations and discussions at African Union (AU) headquarters in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Themed "The next decade of land policy in Africa: ensuring agricultural development and inclusive growth," the Conference brought together parliamentarians, ministers, practitioners, academics, community representatives and other stakeholders to discuss the issue of land in Africa. The Conference was organized by the Land Policy Initiative, which is a joint programme of the African Union Commission (AUC), the African Development Bank (AfDB) and United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (ECA). Natural Justice attended the Conference with the support of the Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies.

While numerous issues were discussed, from global initiatives to national land policy reform to customary tenure systems, three key themes were raised throughout the Conference: implementation of guidelines and policies; customary tenure; and information dissemination.

Implementation is Crucial

The opening session of the Conference featured representatives of the European Union, the FAO, UN Habitat, the AfDB and the Ethiopian government, among others. Speakers made reference to numerous guidelines and declarations, including the Framework and Guidelines on Land Policy in Africa (link), the Nairobi Action Plan to Promote Land-Based Investments that Benefit Africa (link), and the AU Declaration on Land Issues and Challenges in Africa (link).  The Conference also served as a forum to launch the AU Guiding Principles on Large Scale Land Based Investments in Africa (link). Throughout the Conference, presenters also provided information on new or existing land laws and policies in numerous African countries. There are also global guidelines relevant to land, such as the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure (link). However, again and again, questions were raised by both presenters and participants regarding implementation of guidelines and national policies. Moving from paper to practice is one of the critical issues facing African countries with regard to land.

Customary Systems Must Be Considered in Land Policies

While some countries such as Tanzania have done away entirely with customary systems of land tenure, in many countries such as Ghana, Zambia and Uganda, customary tenure remains an integral part of the land system. Often these customary tenure systems are administered through a Chief system that operates in conjunction with the national system. As countries in Africa draft new policies and revise existing ones, the manner in which customary tenure systems are taken into account will need to be carefully considered.

Information Dissemination is Needed

Throughout the Conference, another recurring theme was the need to disseminate information on various frameworks, guidelines, and national laws to communities. Participants noted that often communities are unaware of relevant national policies and regional frameworks. Many methods are available to raise awareness, and Burkina Faso provided one example. After a new land registration code was drafted in 2004, community theater was used in 696 communities to provide information on using the registration law, with women playing a key role in the process. Community protocols are particularly relevant in this regard, as part of their development involves providing information on relevant guidelines and national laws in the context of the issues that communities face.

Many other issues exist of course, including intra-community conflicts, multiple claims to registered land (for example, in Uganda, 90% of court cases are related to disputes over land), women's land rights, and internally displaced persons. Some issues were also barely discussed, such as the effect of investment treaties on the development of national land policies. If the Conference becomes an annual event, perhaps some of these issues could be taken up next year in more detail.

Communities and Governance of Natural Resources: Natural Justice Works in Turkana

Turkana County, Kenya has been considered amongst the poorest in the country. However, recent oil and water discoveries as well as planned infrastructural developments have brought hope to the citizens of a better life but have also raised a number of critical social, economic and environmental concerns. These were discussed during a Friends of Lake Turkana hosted conference titled 'Towards a Governance Agenda: Harnessing Natural Resources, Communities and Development, which was held in Lodwar, Turkana from the 21-24th of October 2014.

The conference sought to strengthen multi stakeholder participation and engagement in order to ensure local participation in natural resource and infrastructural development. Participants at the meeting included representatives of county and national governments, oil companies, civil society and community representatives. Further information on the conference can be found on the Friends of Lake Turkana website.

Natural Justice is partnering with Friends of Lake Turkana to ensure that legislation and policy positively represent the needs of the citizens of Turkana, in particular its pastoralist communities, so that they are involved in decisions related to their lands, resource and knowledge.

The Heart of Borneo is a transboundary conservation initiative spearheaded by the governments of Malaysia, Indonesia and Brunei Darussalam and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). Holly Jonas (Natural Justice) attended the initiative's sixth annual conference on 10 November 2014 in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia, which focused on the theme "Enhancing Biodiversity towards No Net Loss and Beyond within the Heart of Borneo Landscape".

The conference was opened by Datuk Sam Mannan (Director of Sabah Forestry Department), who underscored the need for political sustainability in decision-making on environmental sustainability, and Datuk Seri G. Palanivel (Minister of Natural Resources and the Environment), who committed to applying for additional funds for the Heart of Borneo under the 11th Malaysia Plan. Dr. Greg Asner (Carnegie Institution for Science) delivered the keynote address on his team's groundbreaking work on remote sensing 3-dimensional mapping using the Carnegie Airborne Observatory.

The first panel, focusing on global perspectives, was chaired by Dr. Michael Kleine (International Union of Forest Research Organisations) and featured presentations by: Dr. Braulio de Souza Dias (Executive Secretary of the Convention on Biological Diversity) on the CBD's perspectives on No Net Loss; Jane Lawton (International Union for Conservation of Nature-Asia) on the critical role of protected areas and on IUCN's Business and Biodiversity Programme; Dato' Dr. Dionysius Sharma (WWF-Malaysia) on the major findings of WWF's recently released 2014 Living Planet Report, which illustrate a 52% decline in global biodiversity between 1970 and 2010; and Michael Crowe on policies and tools for achieving No Net Loss, including the standards of the Business and Biodiversity Offset Programme. The CBD's  2011-2020 Strategic Plan and Aichi Targets, particularly Target 11, were referenced multiple times, along with the need to move beyond quantity towards quality of protected areas in Asia.

The second panel, focusing on practitioner perspectives, was chaired by Datuk Darrel Webber (Secretary General of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil) and featured presentations by: Datuk Dr. Glen Reynolds (Royal Society South East Asia Rainforest Research Programme) on building an evidence base in Sabah for No Net Loss and Payment for Ecosystem Services; Dr. David Cassells (The Nature Conservancy) on translating environmental values into tangible income; Dr. David Brand (New Forests) on future forest plantations and implementation of No Net Loss; Simon Siburat (Wilmar International) on enhancing biodiversity within oil palm plantations; and Glen MacNair (Forest Solutions) on forest owners' perspectives on the role of industrial tree plantations in No Net Loss.

Yangon Conference on Human Rights and Agribusiness

Large-scale agribusiness (particularly monoculture plantations such as oil palm and sugarcane) causes widespread human rights violations and environmental degradation in Southeast Asia. This pervasive industry was the focus of a workshop held from 4-6 November 2014 in Yangon, Myanmar, which was convened by the Myanmar National Human Rights Commission, with the support of the Forest Peoples Programme, RECOFTC-The Center for People and Forests, and the Rights and Resources Initiative.

With 65 participants from the South East Asian National Human Rights Institutions Forum (SEANF) and supporting civil society organisations, including from Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, and Thailand, the workshop addressed interlinked issues such as extraterritorial investments, migrant labour and human trafficking, and food security, and illustrated the range of experiences and modalities of each National Human Rights Institution. In addition to series of panel presentations, the workshop featured engaging break-out groups on transitioning from voluntary to binding standards for transnational and other companies, and on improving, scaling up and innovating upon conflict resolution mechanisms at various levels. On the final day, participants adopted by consensus the Yangon Statement on Human Rights and Agribusiness in Southeast Asia, which calls for (among other things) strengthened regional cooperation with the Association of South Eas Asian Nations (ASEAN) Inter-governmental Commission on Human Rights, establishment of an ASEAN Human Rights Court and effective national-level complaints and redress mechanisms, and active coordination with certification bodies such as the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil.
