Bio :

Silas Alashi lives and works in Nigeria where he has seen community conservation and development projects at first hand. He argues that local communities have their own ideas about empowerment and participation, which differ from those of interested outsiders as park management, government and donors. He suggests that this difference, and management's lack of information about community agendas, is a major reason why participatory management is not succeeding at present.
