Última Grazing game: a learning tool for adaptive management in response to climate variability in semiarid areas of Ghana Ecology and Society Villamor, Grace B; Department of Ecology and Natural Resources Management, Center for Development Research, University of Bonn; gracev@uni-bonn.de; Badmos, Biola K; Kwara State University, Malete, Nigeria; biolakz@yahoo.com. In West Africa, the most extreme predicted effects of climate change are expected to occur in desert and grassland areas. It is crucial for local populations in this region to better understand what such projections signify to them to identify sound adaptation policies and interventions. We developed a game, called the “grazing game,” and conducted trials with local farmers at multiple study sites as a learning tool to better understand their behavior in response to climate variability under semiarid conditions in West Africa and to facilitate social learning. The grazing game was designed to reveal the processes that lead to overgrazing and desertification based on the players’ interactions with environmental conditions and...
