(2021-08) Mahonge, Christopher Paul; Nsenga, Justus Vincent; Itani, Juichi; Kurosaki, Ryugo
Natural resource governance fragmentation across scales can inhibit coordinated action and reduce innovation capacity. The presence of bridging actors who connect relevant stakeholder inside governance networks can aid in the resolution of this problem. In this regard, community organization is crucial for effective resource governance. Within the framework of community-based approaches, and using a case study, this study explores the use of a hybrid institution to organize resource governance in Mfuto village in Momba district, Tanzania. The authors use hierarchical and co-governance modes of interactive governance theory to guide the process of data analysis. By applying content and thematic analyses, our observation suggests that building the capacity of the institution and linking it to the wider range of stakeholders are essential steps towards the attainment of anticipated outcomes. Following this, the study highlights four salient steps of an inverted pyramid model (IPM) and are derived from the resource governance initiatives. The study’s implications and limitations as well as future research directions are presented in the concluding section of the study.
