Publication

International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) and WWF Southern Africa has released a new joint publication that links climate change adaptation and community based natural resources management (CBNRM). The publication specifically looks at what lessons community based adaptation (CBA) can learn from the experiences of community based natural resources management. It develops and applies an analytical framework on CBNRM case studies in Southern Africa, and also provides guidance to CBNRM stakeholders in southern Africa on how they can integrate CBA in their work. Using case studies from southern Africa, the publication demonstrates the synergies between CBA and CBNRM, most important of which are the adaptation co-benefits between the two.
