Restocking pastoralists: a manual of best practice
Prior research has demonstrated that restocking has had little long-term impact on the lives and livelihood of poor pastoralists. Given the forces of change impacting pastoralist communities, restocking projects need to account for shifting community values, aspirations, norms and behaviour regarding livestock-keeping. The objective of this study was to develop...

Interventions to improve the sustainability and nutrition of food can be misdirected when based on assumptions about people’s priorities and level of knowledge. When citizens have the capacity to act on their own priorities — in other words when they have agency — there is the potential to achieve better...

Strategies for improved soil and water conservation practices in hillside production systems
The use of live-barriers has been shown to both increase productivity and control soil erosion at an individual plot or field level. This is especially useful in the more intensive cropping systems of Andean Bolivia, where live barriers may encourage further intensification. Cover crops, such as Phalaris, can play a...
