Methodologies

This paper consists of a review of socio-economic conceptual frameworks, tools and methodologies relevant to HDN, and looks at the different (socio-economic) conceptual frameworks and techniques that could be used to address the key issues of the framework. Case studies are used throughout the paper to illustrate how particular conceptual frameworks and tools have been used to explain socio-economic dimensions of human dependence on nature.
