This document is the third in the Occasional Paper Series of the IUCN/SNV CBNRM Support Programme. The Papers intend to promote CBNRM in Botswana by documenting experiences and lessons learnt during the implementation of the concept by the practitioners in this field. Stakeholders such as Government agencies, NGOs, private sector and CBOs who are involved in CBNRM are often too busy implementing to share experiences on success and failure with others. The CBNRM Series hopes to fill this information gap.
