  1. Preparation for Break out working Group Kenneth Angu CARPE Program Manager

  2. Working Group 1: Minimum Standards for Stakeholders Involvement in Land Use Planning • This working group session will focus on; • producing a concrete output in the form of a list of minimum standards required for engaging stakeholders in the land use planning process; • This list should distinguish, where appropriate, between landscape-wide planning and macro zone planning;

  3. These minimum standards should be generic enough to apply across landscapes, should strive to be realistic in terms of time and financial constraints and take into account an adaptive management approach.

  4. Working Group 2: Role and Strategies for Alternative Livelihoods in Conservation Programs • This working group session will focus on producing a concrete output in the form of a list of the roles of alternative livelihoods as they relate to conservation; • Based on this list of the roles of alternative livelihoods, the working group will also produce a list of criteria for choosing what livelihood activities should be prioritized.

  5. Working Group 3: CARPE’s Contribution to Forest Concession Management Plans • Note: • A key constraint involving USAID funding is that it cannot be used for activities associated with tropical timber extraction - even if it is intended to promote reduced impact logging; • Furthermore, it is not clear that CARPE partners have a comparative advantage relative to direct timber extraction activities;

  6. On the other hand, CARPE partners have strengths in overall natural resource management planning including bushmeat hunting, agriculture, non-timber tree products, fishing etc.; • CARPE partners also have an ability to engage local communities and stakeholders for developing a social plan for involving local actors in NRM; • The working group session should discuss the above observations and focus on producing a list of recommendations concerning the comparative advantages and specific roles of CARPE partners in forest concession management plans.

  7. Working Group 4: Institutional Collaboration: Consortium Management and Other Collaborations Key Challenges and Proposed Solutions • This working group session will focus on producing a concrete output in the form of; • a list of the principal challenges associated with landscape consortium collaboration and other forms of needed collaboration; and • a list of accompanying proposed solutions.
