Using a cross-sectional mixed-methods case study, data were collected from 158 value-chain actors and eight key informants through surveys, int…
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.
