dc.description.abstractSustainable development in the drylands depends not on trying to make the environment predictable, but on enabling people to manage unpredictability. Production practices that promote productivity of the rangelands will directly boost local livelihoods. For example, management of high value indigenous trees increases income that can be reaped from non-timber forest products, while grazing practices that promote biomass can generate income through pastoralism. This newsletter raises awareness for participants of the Member of State Parliamentary Tour, part of a larger project ‘Conservation as Core Assets for Livelihoods in Eastern Africa’ funded by the International Development Research Centre (IDRC).en
