Livelihoods, Natural Resources, and Post-Conflict Peacebuilding

A fundamental challenge for post-conflict recovery is sustaining and strengthening livelihoods. By degrading natural resources essential to livelihoods and by weakening access to those resources, conflict can wreak havoc on the ability of households to survive and recover. This book examines experiences from around the world in supporting post-conflict livelihoods and facilitating peacebuilding through natural resource management. Case studies and analyses identify lessons and opportunities for designing interventions in land management, agriculture, forestry, fisheries, protected areas, ecotourism, and other natural resource-based areas. The book also explores how to structure livelihoods assistance as part of an integrated approach to post-conflict redevelopment. It provides a concise theoretical and practical framework for policymakers, researchers, practitioners, and students. Livelihoods and Natural Resources in Post-Conflict Peacebuilding is part of a global initiative to identify and analyze lessons in post-conflict peacebuilding and natural resource management. The project has generated six volumes of case studies and analyses, with contributions by practitioners, policymakers, and researchers. Other volumes address high-value resources; land; water; restoration, remediation, and reconstruction; and governance.
