Beschreibung
Efforts to implement Integrated Water Resource Management are often hampered by inefficient political and institutional environments in Sub-Saharan Africa. As a result, Sio River basin in Kenya has experienced land use and land cover changes which have exerted negative ecological impacts on local livelihoods. This is despite the existence of a decentralized governance system constitutionally mandated to ensure water and soil resource management for sustainable food security. This book examines the status of watershed governance and its implications on food security at a river basin under a multi-level governance system in Kenya. Watershed governance, adaptive capacity, adaptive governance, adaptive co-management and food security principles guided data collection and analysis. This is a must read!!
