This case study presents a practical field-based, implementation perspective - that of a Namibian Non-Government Organisation (NGO) providing technical support to more than 30 rural communities to take advantage of new, enabling, community-based natural resource management (CBNRM) legislation in Namibia. More than half of these communities fall within the definition of mobile peoples, as pastoralists or hunter-gatherers.
