Abstract

Greening Darfur was funded by Christian Aid and implemented from January 2008 to February 2011. The purpose of the project was to rehabilitate and develop natural resources and natural resource based livelihoods in Darfur (where conflict and drought has led to serious degradation of the natural environment). The on-going conflict in North Darfur meant that a wider approach was needed beyond natural resource management or sustainable livelihoods. This case study illustrates the approach that Practical Action used and the importance of strengthening existing and established networks.
