L’approche interactionniste pour l’analyse d’un projet d’agroforesterie villageoise sur le plateau des Batéké (République démocratique du Congo)
This article deals with the setting up of a village agroforestry project for the integrated management of natural resources, in the hamlet of Duale Mitterrand (52 households) on the plateau Batéké (Democratic Republic of Congo). It is based on fieldwork conducted between February and May 2012 as part of the end-of-course dissertation study of Master of Science and Environmental Management at the Free University of Brussels (ULB). The main objective of the article is to investigate the hypothesis that the success of an agroforestry project in villages depends on its integration into the local land management standards and integration of all involved in the device. The first part presents the three key concepts of the project discourse : integrated management of natural resources as intervention logic, the "terroir" approach as methodology and local agroforestry as device. The second part analyzes how these concepts have been applied in the field. We use an interactionist perspective to study the integration of the agroforestry project in rural villagers. It allows us to determine spatial planning, production and deforestation from an analysis of the different local actors. The identified typology locates the players according to their access to natural resources, and allows us to reveal the specific operating logic, the link with the dynamics of deforestation and their integration into the agroforestry system.
