Shaping forest safety nets with markets: adaptation to climate change under changing roles of tropical forests in Congo Basin
Vulnerability of forest ecosystems in West Africa is likely to be aggravated with current and projected climate and human stresses with implications for adaptation and REDD regimes. This is because vulnerability of the forest ecosystems affects economic sectors and millions of people that depend ...

Dealing with reducing trends in forest ecosystem services through a vulnerability assessment and planned adaptation actions
Many studies have suggested various kinds of forest policies, management planning and practices to help forests adapt to climate change. These recommendations are often generic, based mostly on case studies from temperate countries and rarely from Africa. We argue that policy and management recom...

Politiques forestieres et utilisation des ressources au Burkina Faso, au Ghana et au Mali: sont-elles compatibles avec l'adaptation au changement climatique
Under natural resource ecosystems shared across communities and nations, the distribution among stakeholders of risks and vulnerability to climate change is likely to be uneven on account of the nature of their stakes in the ecosystems, the degree of their dependence and the extent of degradation...
