Sustaining communities livestock and wildlife: a guide to participatory land-use planning

Year of publication 2009
This guide is designed to help communities and policy-makers informed choices regarding land use, business ventures, and public policy in pastoral areas, particularly the Maasai Steppe and other semi-arid parts of East Africa. It intended to help communities, and outside facilitators, through the processes of managing conflicts over land use; developing community-based nature conservancies; and managing livestock health in areas rich in wildlife. The guide features six modules offering suggestions, steps, and experience to other communities facing similar challenges of livelihood change and co-existence with wildlife.
