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 research to provide a
better understanding of these interactions. Drawing on data and
information from numerous studies conducted in the last 20 years,
the book presents a comparative analysis of policy changes and
management experiences in the countries concerned. It also
addresses issues of global climate change, since they have an
impact on Miombo ecosystem management and restoration, and provides
future projections based on an assessment of how climate change has
affected the Miombo woodlands in the past.
