Communal Areas Management Programme for Indigenous Resources (CAMPFIRE)
CAMPFIRE is an exploration of rural development and conservation in Africa. It seeks to restructure the control of Zimbabwe's countryside, giving people alternative ways of using their natural resources. CAMPFIRE, designed and managed entirely by Africans, emerged in the mid-1980's with the recognition that as long as wildlife remained the property of the state no one would invest in it as a resource.
Campfire WWW has information on the project and its members, and a series of factsheets on the project
A series of booklets on the programme produced by IIED (Wildlife and development series) are available on the WildNet Africa site.
