Sustaining communities, livestock and wildlife: A guide to participatory land-use planning

This guide is designed to help communities and policy-makers at local and national levels make informed
choices regarding land use, business ventures, and public policy in pastoral areas, particularly the
Maasai Steppe and other semi-arid parts of East Africa.

This decision support tool, Sustaining communities, livestock and wildlife stems from work by the Food
and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the African Wildlife Foundation (AWF) and International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) and the United Republic of Tanzania on a Global Environmental Fund (GEF)/World Bank project called “Novel forms of livestock and wildlife integration adjacent to protected areas in Africa – Tanzania.”
