Roads, Lines, and Boundary Objects
In 2010, the then President of Tanzania, Jakaya Kikwete, announced an economic development plan to build a highway that spanned northern Tanzania. The map of the plan revealed a transportation network that traversed the Greater Serengeti–Mara ecosystem and bisected the iconic Serengeti National Park. Given the importance of the Serengeti–Mara ecosystem to conservation and savannah ecology, not to mention international tourism, the plan immediatel…
Indigenous Technical Knowledge
Indigenous technical knowledge (ITK) refers to knowledge about the local environment that is produced, held, and used by indigenous peoples and communities. However, complex issues remain – political, ethical, epistemological, methodological, and ontological – regarding how ITK should be defined, accessed, and handled, and how it may be brought into conversation with Western science. While ITK is commonly defined as being ontologically and episte…
Exploring multiple ontologies of drought in agro‐pastoral regions of N orthern T anzania
There has been increased focus within the human dimensions of climate change on understanding the complex and multiple ways of ‘knowing’ climate. While these discussions are important in recognising different ways of knowing the climate and climate change processes already underway, we argue that this epistemological approach is limited and challenging. It begins with an assumption that there is one world (climate) out there that can just be know…
Differentiated livelihoods, local institutions, and the adaptation imperative
Integrated development, risk management and community-based climate change adaptation in a mountain-plains system in Northern Tanzania
This paper presents a preliminary analysis of work conducted along altitudinal gradients in the mountains and plains of northern Tanzania. We find evidence of a high degree of interdependence among groups of people of different language/cultural groups and socio-economic status interacting along environmental gradients from high to low altitude. We call this “socio-geographical adaptation” to climate change. However, our analysis and discussion a…
Développement intégré, gestion des risques et adaptation communautaire au changement climatique dans un système montagne-plaine au nord de la Tanzanie
Cet article présente une analyse préliminaire d’un travail mené le long des pentes des montagnes et dans les plaines du nord de la Tanzanie. Un fort degré d’interdépendance a pu être mis en évidence parmi des groupes d’individus de langues et de cultures différentes, de statuts socio-économiques variés. Leurs interactions se situent le long de gradients environnementaux allant de l’amont à l’aval. On désignera cela « adaptation socio-géographique…
