Blog Post by Carolin Hulke, Project C01 “Future in Chains”.

Future Rural Africa Subproject C01 “Future in Chains” studies socio-ecological transformation in cross-border growth corridors, and assesses long-term developments and adaptive capacities connected to emerging (inter-)national value chains in the Zambezi region and along the SACGOT growth corridor.


Researcher Carolin Hulke focused her PhD research on “Development beyond global integration: Livelihood strategies, small-scale agriculture, and regional value chains in Namibian conservation areas”.
