Fisheries in the drylands of sub-Saharan Africa "Fish come with the rains. Building resilience for fisheries-dependent livelihoods to enhance food security and nutrition in the drylands

The focus of this review has been on both documenting the general resilience of many fish resources to climatic variability and its underestimation in livelihood importance, including in protracted crisis situations, but also on enhancing the potential supply of fish from dryland areas by better use of the available water bodies, and in particular from small reservoirs.
