dc.description.abstract | Land degradation and desertification are continuing problems facing Eritrea and the IGAD region. A study done in western Eritrea has shown that the riverine forest generates more value per capita than any other form of land use, with the largest proportion of households dependent on forest resources for their livelihoods. The inability of the government to enforce laws governing use of, and access to land and/ or natural resources leads to widespread exploitation. New land reform bills can provide the legal framework for implementing decentralized governance of natural resources. This report accounts for policy and structural impediments to sustainability of environmental resources and livelihoods. | en |
