Download or read book The Impact of Pastoral Legislation on Equitable and Sustainable Natural Resource Management in Guinea written by Oussouby Touré and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents the findings of a study of the impact of Guinean pastoral legislation carried out on behalf of IIED as part of its sub-regional "Making Decentralisation Work" programme. Experience in Guinea shows that grassroots ownership of the pastoral legislation is essential if it is to be applied effectively. In order to meet this challenge herders' organisations need to be more aware of and engage with the issues involved in natural resource management and ongoing processes of decentralisation. The evaluation of the experience in Guinea indicates that formulating legislation or translating it into national languages is not enough to ensure its dissemination and appropriation by local communities.

This book was released on 2018-07-26 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of Nature & Faune journal explores the science and innovations (technical, social and policy) that can support the achievement of the African dream of restoring 100 million hectares of its degraded land. Articles in this edition share experiences on challenges, opportunities and successful restoration, including farmer managed natural regeneration, improved management of smallholder woodlots, reforestation, evergreen agriculture with intercropped trees, and associated sustainable land management practices such as water harvesting and erosion control. Africa’s Great Green Wall is presented in this edition as a transformative model for rural communities’ sustainable development. In particular the lessons learned from the “Action Against Desertification” programme funded by the European Union and implemented by FAO with partner countries and organizations, are discussed, paving a way towards the implementation of African Forest Landscape Restoration Initiative. Initiatives to address land degradation and desertification trends in Africa, promote sustainable land management, and restoration of degraded forests and landscapes include Africa’s Great Green Wall initiative, and 2016’s African Forest Landscape Restoration Initiative – AFR100. Most of the articles dwelt on how efforts to this end are being pursued.

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.

Download or read book Planetary Overload written by Anthony J. McMichael and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-10-07 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human species faces many threats to its health - perhaps to its survival. Taking an interesting perspective, Planetary Overload forcefully points out the consequences to human health of ongoing degradation of Earth's ecosystems. In a broad-based, accessible analysis, A. J. McMichael examines ecological disruptions - land degradation, ozone depletion, temperature increases, and loss of genetic diversity through the extinction of species, among others - and compellingly demonstrates their potentially disastrous results, including food shortages, new and intensified disease patterns, rising seas, mass refugee problems, and cancers, blindness, and immune suppression from increased ultraviolet radiation. While other books on the subject analyse only the environmental impact of these problems, McMichael relates each of these insidious processes back to its ultimate impact on human health. He thoroughly considers these problems within a broad evolutionary, biological, social, and economic context, and also explores the underlying problems contributing to environmental breakdown, especially the relations between the world's rich and poor. This book will be of interest to environmentalists, public health professionals, policy makers, environmental studies and human ecology scholars, and anyone wishing a lucid, rational assessment of today's pressing ecological concerns.
Download or read book International Development and the Environment written by Shiro Hori and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the interplay between development and the environment, focusing on how to forge social consensus and practices in the international community. Since the Rio Earth Summit in 1992, sustainable development has increasingly attracted the attention of the international community, and several international agreements have been concluded to combat issues such as climate change. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were introduced as common objectives, and the Paris Agreement was adopted as a subsequent outcome. In light of today’s globalized world, how to best achieve sustainable development—and prioritize climate change in particular—is an issue involving various perspectives on the environment and economic development in the global community. The book provides students, businesspeople and government officials with a concept of sustainable development that is based on using social consensus, social norms, and practices (cooperative global actions) to achieve common goals. It is divided into three parts, the first of which focuses on the goals and development needed to achieve sustainable development. The second part explores measures to promote sustainable development, while the third highlights current climate change issues and aspects related to the effective implementation of international frameworks.
