Book New Frontiers in Natural Resources Management in Africa

Download or read book New Frontiers in Natural Resources Management in Africa written by Elias T. Ayuk and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-07 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses policy strategies for the effective management of natural resources in Africa within the context of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). While natural resource wealth has the potential to lift many out of poverty, sustain economic growth, and foster political stability, it does not guarantee these benefits. The absolute levels of human development in many resource-rich countries remain low, despite their apparent wealth. The challenge is to adopt policies that better harness the potential of natural resources, not only as an opportunity for development, but also to foster policies and institutional innovations that manage resource wealth equitably and boost human capital. To this end, this volume highlights key opportunities and solutions for harnessing natural resources for sustained economic development and explain how such approaches should be incorporated into the SDG agenda. These opportunities are communicated in the form of policy recommendations that in some cases, are country specific but can (and should) be adapted by individual African countries where applicable. With a broad perspective supplied by a diverse group of authors, this book will be useful for graduate students and academicians studying Africa, development economics, economic policy, and resource management, as well as policy makers, NGOs, and IGOs.

Book Platforms for Sustainable Natural Resource Management

Download or read book Platforms for Sustainable Natural Resource Management written by Constant Dangbégnon and published by Kit Pub. This book was released on 2001 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benin, Burkina Faso and other countries in West Africa have faced serious environmental degradation during the last three decades. After the droughts of the 1970s and 1980s, it became clear that resource depletion and human hardship and suffering are inextricably intertwined. The magnitude of the problem is so great that conventional public means and services no longer suffice to prevent further degradation. This study therefore proposes a new approach to resource management. By looking at resource management problems in six sites in Benin and Burkina Faso, it shows how crises in ecosystems are triggers of social learning by stakeholders and intervening agencies. The authors argue that facilitation of change goes beyond the transfer of technology, advisory work, information support and extension. Resource problems in situations of conflict and interdependence can be solved only through collective action and platform development. Facilitation may help, but requires development professionals to play new roles in conflict resolution, mediation and negotiation. Learning from the six case studies in such different ecosystems as a lake, rangeland, watershed and forest, this booklet clarifies the conditions for successful collective action and effective platforms for resource management.
