dc.description.abstractThe policy brief describes climate change as it relates to north-central Namibia, providing background information, impacts, and specific strategies for increasing adaptative capacity: diversifying livestock; storage of grain and fodder; using social networks for assistance, and; establishment of credit associations and co-operatives. Cultivating techniques that have worked in similar climates are also suggested: the method and use of planting pits; how to prepare compost; and managing sloped ground by building stone bunds.en
