Description/Abstract: Ce manuel est offert comme guide pratique pour la mise en oeuvre de l’enquête sur les nécessités de bases (Basic Necessities Survey, BNS) qui a été élaborée à l’origine par Rick Davies (http://mande.co.uk/specialissues/ the-basic-necessities-survey/), puis modifiée et testée sur le terrain par WCS. La BNS modifiée est imparfaite, en ce sens qu’elle ne cherche pas à répondre à toutes les questions qui pourraient être posées sur l’impact des mesures de conservation (ou de développement) sur le bien-être des gens. Mais c’est le noyau parfait d’un programme de suivi des moyens d’existence, parce qu’il fournit des informations essentielles sur le bien-être des gens de leur point de vue au fil du temps, et la mise en oeuvre d’une BNS modifié est assez facile pour ne pas empêcher la collecte d’informations supplémentaires sur les ménages dont un projet de conservation estime avoir besoin pour gérer leurs activités de manière adaptative.

Description/Abstract: This manual is offered as a practical guide to implementing the Basic Necessities Survey (BNS) that was originally developed by Rick Davies (http://mande.co.uk/special-issues/the-basic-necessities-survey/), and was modified and then field-tested by WCS. The modified Basic Necessities Survey is imperfect, in that it does not attempt to answer all questions that could be asked about the impact of conservation (or development) actions on people’s well-being. But it is the perfect core to a livelihood monitoring program, because it provides essential information about people’s well-being from their perspective over time, and implementing a modified BNS is easy enough that it does not preclude gathering additional household information that a conservation project feels they need to adaptively manage their activities.

Description/Abstract: The WCS Gender Assessment Field Guide materials were created by Anne Gordon Williams, WCS’s CAFEC Gender consultant in February-March 2015. The materials were used to conduct a gender assessment and field training for male and female WCS staff in Congo and the DRC. The WCS Gender Assessment Field Guide is intended to help WCS staff to: 1. Conduct a short, focused gender assessment, 2. Integrate gender into work plans and all phases of a project life cycle, 3. Provide guidance for reporting.
