In a time of global climate urgency, innovative ecological practices are emerging across the world, but how effective are they in the realities of the Global South? This groundbreaking study explores six ecological innovations in Senegal, from Nubian vaults and compressed earth blocks to wind farms, biochar, micro-gardening, and biofertilizers. Using a geographical and field-based approach, the book analyzes the practical, cultural, and economic challenges facing these technologies on the ground. A must-read for researchers, development practitioners, and policy-makers, this work highlights the importance of local context, adaptation, and critical assessment when implementing sustainable solutions in the Global South.
