The charcoal transition
Charcoal is widely used for cooking and heating in developing countries. The consumption of charcoal has been at high level and the demand may keep growing over the next decades, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Some preliminary studies indicate that among commonly used cooking fuels, unsustainably produced charcoal can be the most greenhouse gas intensive fuels and simple measures could deliver high GHG mitigation benefits. Through the Paris Agreement on climate change adopted in 2015, countries set themselves ambitious targets to curb climate change, and forest-related measures have an important role to play in climate change mitigation and adaptation. Over 70% of the countries who have...

Forests for a sustainable future: education modules for primary schools
Designed for primary school children in Grades 3–5 in the United Republic of Tanzania, these education modules are inspired by the principles of the “education for sustainable development” (ESD) approach. The ESD approach is based on learning methods that motivate and empower learners to make informed decisions, change their behaviour and take responsible action for environmental integrity, economic viability and a just society for present and future generations, using a more hands-on and interactive approach than standardized education methods. The modules have been developed in collaboration with the Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism and the Ministry of Education of the United Republic of Tanzania as part of the project, “Forests for a Sustainable Future: Educating Children”, implemented by FAO and funded by the German Federal Ministry for Food and Agriculture (BMEL).
Miombo Woodlands in a Changing Environment: Securing the Resilience and Sustainability of People and Woodlands
Based on work by the Miombo Network in southern Africa, this book helps decision-makers and general readers alike improve their understanding of the socio-ecology of the Miombo woodlands across southern Africa. It also highlights the importance of and the need for further research on the unique Miombo ecology and its link with economic development. One major challenge facing these woodlands is the influence that direct (both natural and anthropogenic) and indirect drivers of change, as well as interactions between these, have had over the centuries. As such the book explores the socio-economic and ecological interactions that occur in these woodlands and discusses the need for further resear...
Operationalizing integrated landscape approaches in the tropics
Poverty, food insecurity, biodiversity and habitat loss are persistent global challenges that are further exacerbated by the impacts of climate change. These challenges are particularly hard felt in the tropical landscapes of the global South where tensions between local socio-economic and international environmental commitments are pervasive. Due to the apparent failure of sectorial approaches to address such challenges, more holistic strategies are being increasingly promoted. Integrated landscape approaches are one such example; essentially a governance strategy that engages multiple stakeholders to reconcile societal and environmental objectives at the landscape scale to identify trade-o...
