from Part 5 - Dynamics of Social-Ecological Relations between the 1990s and the Present
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 June 2020
Chapter 11 deals with future trajectories. How will environmental infrastructures in north-western Namibia develop in future? There are very different visions on what will and what should happen. Climate change projections suggest that by the end of the twenty-first century, herding and agriculture may be difficult in the region due to continuous desiccation. Conservationists allege that only conservation-based economic acitivities will be viable and opt for a strengthening of community conservation and advertise the Kaokoveld's nature (which in many visions entails wildlife, landscape, and humans alike) to the global tourism market. Yet others highlight the opportunities mining brings about. The region is extremely rich in different ores and foreign comapnies line up to lay claim to future minining options.
