Hope Takes Root: Community-Based Coastal Resources Management Stories from Southeast Asia

by Elmer M. Ferrer, Lenore P. dela Cruz, and Gary Newkirk (eds.)

"An earlier book of case studies looked at the Philippines as development workers searched for 'Seeds of Hope' in CBCRM. In this second endeavor encompassing not only the Philippines but Cambodia and Viet Nam, the feeling is that those seeds of hope have taken root. As those roots grow in the richness of local communities they not only produce the various stories reported here but they provide a means for people to form a base and reach out to others in search of the freedom of self-determination."
