“…L'inclusività è uno dei principali indicatori impiegati per valutare l'efficienza e l'efficacia di un processo partecipativo, in quanto tale aspetto è strettamente correlato con il potere dei portatori d'interessi di influenzare i risultati finali del processo decisionale (Lecomte et al 2005). Per quanto concerne il questionario adottato nella presente indagine l'inclusività è stata valutata attraverso: la capacità di includere nelle decisioni le conoscenze locali (Q3.11), il livello di coinvolgimento dei singoli portatori d'interessi nel processo decisionale (Q3.6 e Q3.13) e il grado di trasparenza (Q3.10).…”

IntroduzioneLa rete Natura 2000 è una rete ecologica istituita nei paesi dell'Unione Europea (UE) agli inizi degli anni '90 del secolo scorso. La rete ecologica è stata istituita con la Direttiva 92/43/CEE "Habitat" e dalla Direttiva 79/409/CE "Uccelli", quest'ultima recentemente abrogata e sostituita integralmente dalla Direttiva 2009/147/CE, con il fine prioritario di salvaguardare nel lungo periodo la biodiversità mediante la conservazione degli habitat naturali e seminatura- Consequently, each country has adopted a different participatory strategy taking into account the principles of integration approach. The integration approach is based on combining human activities and nature conservation purposes in the same area or, at least, in areas in close proximity. In Italy, the implementation of Natura 2000 network was developed at local level (Regions and Autonomous Provinces) using different approaches and procedures. Starting from these considerations, the aim of the study was to analyse the stakeholders' involvement process during the implementation of Habitats Directive in Italy and the management of Natura 2000 sites. This study was realized using three main criteria with the respective indicators: (1) inclusiveness of participatory process; (2) democracy of participatory process; (3) cooperation and conflicts during the implementation process of Natura 2000 network. The data were collected through the administration by email of a semi-structured questionnaire to 56 stakeholders divided in four main groups of interest (public administrations, universities and research centres, environmental associations, private organizations). The results of the survey show that the participatory process was characterized by a low level of inclusiveness despite the existence of some best practices at local level. In many cases, the decisions were taken by a low number of stakeholders -mostly public administrations -while the individuals of local community were only informed. Conversely, the results highlights as positive aspect the increasing level of trust among stakeholders after the Natura 2000 network implementation process.

“…Cependant, la plupart des recherches ont assez peu analysé les dimensions sociopolitiques des transformations du modèle de gouvernance. Pourtant, les changements récents apportés à la gouvernance des forêts publiques touchent aussi le rôle des divers acteurs à l'échelle locale (LECOMTE, MARTINEAU-DELISLE et NADEAU, 2005) et soulèvent ainsi des questions importantes du point de vue du développement régional.…”

“…These include: commitment and clarity of objectives; timing and group dynamics; representativity and equity; and skills, resources and information. Within the Québec context, Lecomte et al (2005) use similar dimensions: devolution of power; moment of participation, learning and interaction; and procedure.

Aboriginal peoples in Canada present a special case of citizen involvement in forest governance, with rights and status that go beyond those of other stakeholders and individuals. Increasingly, participation processes aimed specifically at Aboriginal representatives are being used to encourage their involvement in forest management. This article asks what would be the characteristics of a distinct process that could respond to Aboriginal rights, needs and expectations. We do so by combining the results of a broad Québec-wide study with those from a case study of forestry participation in a single community. A total of 68 consultation processes are analyzed. These experiences enable the identification of several characteristics of consultation processes used for First Nations. We also note that distinct consultations typically reflect the same practices that are used more generally for public participation in forestry, raising the question of whether or not these consultations truly respond to Aboriginal rights, needs and expectations in Québec.Key words: Aboriginal peoples, Aboriginal forestry, forest management, public participation mechanisms, duty to consult, Canada RÉSUMÉ Étant donné leurs droits et leur statut qui se distinguent de ceux des autres parties prenantes, les Autochtones du Canada présentent un cas particulier en lien avec l'implication des citoyens dans la gouvernance des forêts. Des processus de participation s'adressant spécifiquement aux Autochtones sont progressivement mis en place afin de les impliquer davantage dans la gestion forestière. Cet article se demande en quoi les caractéristiques de processus distincts peuvent rencontrer les besoins et les attentes des Autochtones. Afin de répondre à cette question, nous présentons les résultats combinés d'une étude à grande échelle à travers le Québec et d'une étude approfondie portant sur la participation au sein d'une seule communauté autochtone. Un total de 68 processus participatifs sont analysés. Ces expériences permettent d'identifier des caractéristiques des processus participatifs utilisés avec les peuples autochtones. Elles permettent d' observer que les processus distincts reflètent généralement des pratiques communément admises pour la participation publique dans le secteur forestier. Cela soulève la question de savoir si ces processus répondent aux droits, aux besoins et aux attentes des Autochtones du Québec.
