Social–ecological transformations towards sustainability in drylands
Drylands face urgent development challenges that are complex and interconnected, requiring holistic systems-based approaches. Here, we present a social–ecological systems framework to guide research, policy, and action across disciplines and sectors towards sustainability transformations in drylands for improved livelihoods and enhanced ecosystem, livestock, and human health. Our conceptual framework integrates three non-exclusive and complementa…
Unravelling the pastoralist paradox – preferences for land tenure security and flexibility in Kenya
In this paper, we use a discrete choice experiment conducted among pastoralists in four different semi-arid counties in Kenya characterized by different land tenure regimes to analyze how pastoralists make tradeoffs between tenure security and grazing flexibility – the so-called pastoralist paradox. Results show that there is one group of respondents who are desperate for change and seem to prefer either group or private title deeds to their curr…
Natural regeneration offers an effective way for large‐scale restoration of degraded lands in Tigray, Ethiopia
Land rehabilitation through exclosures has been recognized as a promising practice in the restoration of degraded drylands. This study evaluated woody species density, diversity, cover, and biomass production from three regeneration approaches (EMTs): (1) Naturally Regenerated (ENR) exclosures, (2) exclosures with Soil and Water Conservation Structures (ECNR), and (3) those enriched with exotic and local plant species in addition to SWC structure…
Low public participation and weak rules threaten exclosure sustainability in Tigray, Northern Ethiopia
An assessment of tangible community benefits from exclosures in Tigray, northern Ethiopia
Perspectives on enclosures in pastoralist drylands
The Influence of Water Availability on Pastoralist's Resource Use in Mwingi and Kitui Districts in Kenya
Understanding where pastoral livestock grazing takes place and how water availability and distribution influences resource use, is critical in planning and management of arid and semi-arid lands. This study was carried out in Mwingi and Kitui districts in Eastern Kenya. Semi-structured questionnaires were used for data collection for five months. Watering points were established through cluster sampling by considering each administrative sub-loca…
