Jerome Lewis began working with Pygmy hunter-gatherers and former hunter-gatherers in Rwanda in 1993. This led to work on the impact of the genocide on Rwanda’s Twa Pygmies. Since 1994 he has worked with Mbendjele Pygmies in Congo-Brazzaville researching child socialisation, play and religion; egalitarian politics and gender relations; and language, music and dance. Studying the impact of global forces on many Pygmy groups across the Congo Basin has led to research into discrimination, economic and legal marginalisation, human rights abuses, and to applied research supporting conservation efforts by forest people and supporting them to better represent themselves to outsiders. This has resulted in the development of tools (software and hardware) to scientifically describe specific problems (resource damage in logging, illegal logging and poaching) so that ecosystem managers can better take them into account.

Research projects

2011-16: Hunter-Gatherer Resilience Past present and future adaptations to a world in transition. Hunting and gathering have been the major occupation of humans since homo sapiens emerged (200,000 years ago). Although it has been the longest and most diverse bio-cultural adaptation in humanity’s existence, we know very little about the ways in which hunter-gatherers have adapted to pressures and maintained their resilience. While the number of hunter-gatherers that have disappeared is unknown, the consequences of their extinction are evident in humanity’s current low genetic diversity, and in the uneven distribution of languages, where 95% of the world’s languages are spoken by only 6% of the world’s population. Diminishing genetic and linguistic diversity is matched by diminishing biodiversity. Since the remaining hunter-gatherers live in some of the world’s most important biodiversity hotspots this project will explore the relationships between these key areas of diversity for humanity’s general resilience in a period of rapid natural, social and technological change. Leverhulme Trust Resilience Research Programme Grant over 5 years (2011-2016). RP2011-R-045. £1,700,000.

2011-16: ‘Extreme’ Citizen Science (ExCiteS). The core objective of this proposal is the creation and the development of a research group that focuses on ‘Extreme’ Citizen Science (ExCiteS) – the theory, methodologies, techniques and tools that are needed to allow any community to start its own bottom-up citizen science activity, regardless of the level of literacy of the users. The aim is that by the end of the grant, the interdisciplinary ‘Extreme’ Citizen Science research group at UCL will be recognised in the UK and internationally as leading this area. Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, Challenging Engineering Award: (AB)[22729]. £1,000,000.

2013-14: Developing geographic information systems for non-literate users. ESRI will support the ExCiteS group to develop a stand-alone GIS application for use by non-literate users - focusing on hunter-gatherers in the Congo Basin. ESRI. US$150,000

2011-12: The socio-cultural and legal patterns of organisation of indigenous peoples and their impact on the rights of women and children: A case study in the Republic of Congo. UNICEF. ($133,000)

2012: Capturing differentiated experience of change to ensure pro-poor ecosystem service interventions are fit for purpose. Valuing Nature Network/Natural Environment Research Council Grant. (One year 2012).

2008-ongoing: Centre for Social Excellence based in Younde, Cameroon. A centre for the intensive teaching of graduates from the Congo Basin in the social aspects of forestry, including techniques for involving forest people in mapping and management decision-making processes. We also run short courses for employees of forestry companies. With Tropical Forest Trust, Chirac Foundation and Albert II Monaco Foundation. 1.2 million Euros
http://www.tft-forests.org/projects/project.asp?pr=8
http://www.atibt.com/images/stories/telechargements/formation_ces_octobre.pdf

2005-ongoing: Radio Biso na Biso. We have established a community radio station covering over 15,000 square kilometres for forest people, including hunter-gatherers, to discuss and share in their own languages their interests and concerns. It enables them to make their own radio programmes and provide support to health and education services. With the Tropical Forest Trust and Chirac Foundation. 700,000 Euros.

2007-2011: Monitoring illegal logging and mapping key resources of forest people in south eastern Cameroon. We designed software accessible to non-literate people from 15 communities of five different ethnic groups so they can collect the data themselves. With the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, Forest Peoples Programme and Helveta. (See BBC news items and Lewis 2007). £170,000.

2006- 2008: Defining Free, prior and Informed Consent in the Context of Forestry Operations in the Congo Basin. An examination of how Swiss forestry companies achieve free, prior and informed consent from local people living in the forests they exploit has resulted in a practical guide and policy recommendations. With the Swiss Ministry for Economic Affairs, Intercooperation and the Society for Threatened People. £164,000. http://www.intercooperation.ch/offers/download/forest-management-congo/

2005- 2007: Indigenous Voices. With a $300,000 grant from the World Bank and an industrial logging company in Congo-Brazzaville this project pioneered practices, appropriate technologies and institutionalized procedures to ensure the co-management of 1.3 million hectares of forest by local indigenous people and company managers. The project has defined the basic practices and procedures required for achieving free, prior and informed consent from indigenous peoples in the Congo Basin (See Lewis 2006). The project was a Technology Museum Laureate in 2007. With the Tropical Forest Trust.
