| Résumé : |
Africa is home to some of the most diverse fauna found all over the globe. But such diversity comes with a cost for humans who share the habitat with some of the wild fauna species. Some regions in Africa happen to be among the most impacted regions by human-wildlife conflict (HWC) as humans and the wildlife frequently come into contact with each other due to sharing the same space and resources. The overall objective of the project was to understand the drivers behind human-wildlife conflicts (HWC) occurring in Africa. The study aimed to do so by investigating the experiences and perceptions of local communities in relation to human-wildlife conflict. The study also investigated the willingness and ability of local communities to adopt an information and communications (ICT) based HW[...] Africa is home to some of the most diverse fauna found all over the globe. But such diversity comes with a cost for humans who share the habitat with some of the wild fauna species. Some regions in Africa happen to be among the most impacted regions by human-wildlife conflict (HWC) as humans and the wildlife frequently come into contact with each other due to sharing the same space and resources. The overall objective of the project was to understand the drivers behind human-wildlife conflicts (HWC) occurring in Africa. The study aimed to do so by investigating the experiences and perceptions of local communities in relation to human-wildlife conflict. The study also investigated the willingness and ability of local communities to adopt an information and communications (ICT) based HWC Platform. The study found out that the perception of costs and benefits appears to have the most significant effect on wildlife tolerance of local communities. Moreover, it was found out that there is a lack of an efficient HWC mitigation system in place. Overall, the surveyed households were found to be willing and able to support an ICT-based HWC Platform that the SWM project is currently implementing in the study area, though with some issues which can be addressed with appropriate interventions. |
