Sustainability in Natural Resources Management and Land Planning (1st ed. 2021.)

This book includes contributions from scientists and representatives from government and non-governmental organisations working in the field of land management and use and on management of fires.

The book is truly interdisciplinary and has both a research and application-oriented dimension.

The list of topics includes sustainability and water management; sustainability and biodiversity conservation;  the future sustainability of nature-based industries such as agriculture, mining, tourism, fisheries and forestry; sustainability, people and livelihoods; sustainability and landscapes planning; sustainability and land use planning; handling and managing forest fires.

The papers are innovative and cross-cutting, and many have practice-based experiences.

Also, this book, prepared by the Inter-University Sustainable Development Research Programme (IUSDRP) and the World Sustainable Development Research and Transfer Centre (WSD-RTC), reiterates the need to promote a sustainable use of land resources today.
