Laws, rights, and obligations cannot be understood in isolation. Take, for example, a village bordered by a forest on one side and a protected area on the other; community members hunt, fish from a nearby river, farm rice, and keep various livestock. They will find that their lives are contingent on a number of laws that dissect their interrelated understanding of their territories, natural resources, and local production systems. Thus, Natural Justice works on a number of cross-cutting themes that together constitute the core of our approach to supporting communities, advising government agencies, and working at the international level. Specifically, we work on common property resources, community conservation, access and benefit sharing, biotrade, reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD), and farmers’ and livestock keepers’ rights.
