  • The Code of Practice for Mangrove Harvesting
    The Code of Practice for Mangrove Harvesting March 2011 Owen Bovell Mangrove Specialist Guyana Mangrove Restoration Project 1 This publication has been produced with the assistance from the European Union. The contents of this publication are the sole responsibility of the Guyana Mangrove Restoration Project (GMRP) and can in no way be taken to reflect the views of the European Union. i Code of Practice for Mangrove Harvesting ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A great number of persons and organisations contributed to the development of the Code of Practice for Mangrove Harvesting. I gratefully acknowledge the support of the coastal fishermen, the burnt brick producers of Berbice, the past and present mangrove bark harvesters of Barima, Imbatero, Morrawhanna and Aruka and the honey producers in Region 4. The Code was developed with over two years of inputs from stakeholders, with maximum effort to involve as many interested organisations and individuals as possible. Other codes of forest harvesting and timber harvesting practices from around the world were reviewed during the development of this Code. This includes the FAO Model Code of Forest Harvesting Practice and the ILO Code of Practice on Safety and Health in Forest Work; Code of Practice for Sustainable Use of Mangrove Ecosystems for Aquaculture in Southeast Asia and Code of Practice for Forest Harvesting in Asia-Pacific which were widely consulted. Special thanks! Many local documents were reviewed which contributed greatly in guiding the preparation of this Code. These included: National Mangrove Management Plan 2010; Guyana Forestry Commission Draft Code of Practice for Mangrove Management 2004; Code of Practice for Forest Harvesting 2002; The Socio-Economic Context of the Harvesting and Utilisation of Mangrove Vegetation (Allan et al); The National Mangrove Management Secretariat provided much logistical support for its development.
