The sustainable livelihoods approach improves understanding of the livelihoods of the poor. It organizes the factors that constrain or enhance livelihood opportunities, and shows how they relate. It can help plan development activities and assess the contribution that existing activities have made to sustaining livelihoods. Even so, because "problem solving" can hold back analysis of possibilities, some have argued that the sustainable livelihoods approach can be enriched by appreciative inquiry to create new conversations among people as they work together for renewal. The particular situation this query refers to would seem to invite combined leverage of the sustainable livelihoods approach and appreciate inquiry.

Taddeo - Rusoke This looks to be an interesting topic needing more discussions and deliberations in the emerging context. By integrating best agricultural livelihood practices with the management of national parks, the larger goals of protecting the biodiversity and ecosystem integrity supported by the national parks and other protected areas can be well achieved within the limits of the present generation. What we need is strategies and actions surrounding these areas by the government and other agencies (national and international) with active participation by the local farm communities. Incentive systems can be developed by the agencies for popularising and promoting this idea amongst the local actors, besides the farming communities and other households.
