This book examines the conditions under which non-governmental organisations (NGOs) may exert influence on policies to conserve and sustainably use natural resources in sub-Saharan Africa. The book is unique in bringing together NGO campaigners in three African countries with academics specialising in development studies, systems and environmental policy.
This volume examines important case-studies such as NGO campaigns for sustainable water management in Zimbabwe, Botswana and Nigeria and opposition to the fencing of rangelands in Botswana.
