Does Adaptive Collaborative Forest Governance Affect Poverty? Participatory Action Research in Nepal's Community Forests
Despite recognition of forests’ roles in rural livelihoods, there has been relatively little empirical exploration of community forestry's contribution to poverty alleviation. Similarly, there has been little study of the interaction of social learning-based approaches to forest governance with poverty alleviation.

Life history analysis of HIV/Aids-affected households in rice and cassava-based farming communities in Northern Malawi
The "New Variant Famine" hypothesis proposed that AIDS offers a major challenge to food security in this part of Africa by impairing the functioning of traditional support systems, leading to the collapse of "social immunity". This study explores the changing perceptions of HIV and AIDS and peoples' responses to its impact by eliciting life history narratives of 30 respondents in Northern Malawi. We classified respondents by means of gender, live…

Appraisal of methods to evaluate farmer field schools
The need to increase agricultural sustainability has induced the government of India to promote the adoption of integrated pest management (IPM). An evaluation of cotton-based conventional and IPM farming systems was conducted in India (2002–2004).

As well as defining the role of women in the population-environment quandary, author Janice Jiggins explains how that role is the key to understanding issues of popul…

How poor women earn income in sub-Saharan Africa and what works against them
Women and Seasonality
Over the last few years, a great deal of evidence has been amassed on the impact of seasonal adversities on women, children and their families. Attempts have been made to differentiate the varying impacts on households and, within households, on women and children in different income classes and to build dynamic models of the 'screws and ratchets' which push manageable seasonal stress toward the breakdown limits of livelihood systems
