Abstract
This book is about collaborative learning for participatory rural development with a focus on community-based natural resource management (CBNRM) approaches. The case studies from China, South Asia and Southeast Asia focus on real-life, complex learning situations concerning CBNRM dilemmas. They illustrate the gradual making of novel communities of practice for capacity development, demonstrate both the process and outcome merits of using a variety of learning methods, and include facilitator participation as an integral part of the learning process. The effectiveness of capacity development strategies is increased through solid grounding in the local context.
