Description: | The book is a collection of selected chapters, all, except one, of which were presented during the 2011 General Assembly of CODESRIA held in Rabat, Morocco, on the theme ‘Africa and the challenges of the twenty-first century’. The chapters have been brought together under three sub-headings: (environment, agriculture and cross-border migrations). The nine chapters cover the environmental question itself, environmental communication and governance, farmers’ perceptions of and adaptation to climate change, the effects of hydroelectric dams on surrounding communities within the context of climate change, challenges for agricultural development especially in the context of land grabbing which has become a central issue in Africa’s development, social protection for farmers and cross-border migrations. The challenge of bringing several contributors together is to make sense of the interconnectedness of the issues, the background of which is the continent’s development. |
