Managing the Miombo Woodlands of Southern Africa: Policies, Incentives and Options for the Rural Poor (2010, positive): “Cavendish (2000), for example, undertook a pioneering, very detailed and innovative case study about woodland income in Zimbabwe, and this has been followed by several others (Campbell et al. 2002; Fisher 2004; See also Technical Annexes 2 and 4 for results from case studies in Zambia and…”
Understanding the relationships between ecosystem services and poverty alleviation: A conceptual framework (2014, positive): “Recent work that demonstrates the displaced impacts of higher consumption lifestyles (e.g. DeFries et al., 2010; Weinzettel et al., 2013), including within rural developing country communities (Cavendish, 2000), have served to challenge this portrayal.”

(1991) conducted respectively in Zimbabwe and India.”
