In reality, policymaking and implementation are often irrational, unpredictable and highly political. Many science and knowledge-based institutions undertake rigorous research with the aim of influencing policy, but often their influence is much less than intended. Understanding who influences policy at different levels, and how, is crucial to ensure that science is deployed most effectively so as to have an influence on conservation and natural resource management. <Earthscan conservation and development series.Conservation of natural resources - Africa, Eastern - Citizen participationConservation of natural resources -- Africa, Eastern -- Citizen participationConservation of natural resources - Government policy - Africa, EasternConservation of natural resources -- Government policy -- Africa, EasternSustainable development - Africa, EasternSustainable development -- Africa, EasternConservation of natural resourcesGovernment policyAfrica, EasternConservation of natural resourcesCitizen participationAfrica, EasternSustainable developmentAfrica, EasternAgricultureHILCCEarth & Environmental SciencesHILCCAgriculture - GeneralHILCCConservation of natural resources - Africa, Eastern - Citizen participation.Conservation of natural resources -- Africa, Eastern -- Citizen participation.Conservation of natural resources - Government policy - Africa, Eastern.Conservation of natural resources -- Government policy -- Africa, Eastern.Sustainable development - Africa, Eastern.Sustainable development -- Africa, Eastern.Conservation of natural resourcesGovernment policyConservation of natural resourcesCitizen participationSustainable developmentAgricultureEarth & Environmental SciencesAgriculture - General333.72096875Davies JonathanDr.1522927International Development Research Centre (Canada)AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910818063703321Conservation and sustainable development4112103UNINA
