支持各社区利用科学上可接受的方法分享和应用其关于当地环境状况的知识，可以改善环境治理和社会环境正义。在本文中，我们讨论我们的项目，旨在使Mbendjele狩猎采集者在刚果盆地雨林监测和地图的商业偷猎者在他们的地区的活动。这样做的目的是为了更有效地控制偷猎者，此外，还可以遏制腐败的“生态卫士”对姆本杰莱人的骚扰。事实上，用户是文盲的威尔斯作为恶劣的热带雨林条件构成了重大挑战，我们正在处理我们的“反偷猎”数据收集平台，其中我们描述的第一个原型。
Supporting communities to share and apply their knowledge of local environmental conditions using scientifically accepted methods can lead to improvements in environmental governance and social-environmental justice. In this paper we discuss our project that seeks to enable the Mbendjele hunter-gatherers in the Congo basin rainforests to monitor and map the activities of commercial poachers in their area. The goal is to allow more effective control over poachers, and, moreover, to curb the harassment the Mbendjele suffer at the hands of corrupt “eco-guards”. The fact that the users are non-literate as wells as the harsh rainforest conditions pose significant challenges that we are tackling with our “Anti-Poaching” data collection platform, of which we describe the first prototype.
