People on the Edge in the Horn - Displacement, Land Use and the Environment in the Gedaref Region, Sudan (Paperback)

The author provides evidence to question many common assumptions about land degradation. What impact do displaced people and refugees have on the place where they eke out a living from resources under pressure? Gaim Kibreab questions the degree of impact on land degradation by war-displaced Eritreans on the Gedaref region of the Sudan. Was land degradation on and around the scheme really due to humans and their livestock? North America: Africa World Press/Red Sea Press
