Part I Eastern Africa -- Tackling child malnutrition by strengthening the linkage between agricultural production, food security and nutrition in rural Rwanda -- Weather Shocks, Gender and Household Consumption: Evidence from Urban Households in the Teso Sub-region, Uganda -- Indigenous and Local Knowledge practices and innovations for enhancing food security under climate change: Examples from Mijikenda communities in coastal Kenya -- Reframing the challenges and opportunities for improved sanitation services in eastern Africa through Sustainability Science -- Part II Southern Africa -- Ethanol as a clean cooking alternative in Sub-Saharan Africa: Insights from sugarcane production and ethanol adoption sites in Malawi and Mozambique -- The effect of introduced Opuntia (Cactaceae) species on landscape connectivity and ecosystem service provision in southern Madagascar -- The Legacy of Mine Closure in Kabwe, Zambia: What can resilience thinking offer to the mining sustainability discourse? -- Knowledge co-production in Sub-Saharan African cities: Building capacity for the Urban Age -- Part III Synthesis -- Harnessing science-policy interface processes to tackle sustainability challenges in Sub-Saharan Africa -- Sustainability challenges in Sub-Saharan Africa: Trade-offs, opportunities and priority areas for Sustainability Science.

The aim of this two-volume book series is to highlight some of the most pervasive sustainability challenges that Sub-Saharan Africa faces. The two volumes contain 20 chapters that illustrate very diverse sustainability challenges throughout the continent, adopting interdisciplinary and problem-oriented research approaches, and methods from the natural and the social sciences. The very diverse case study chapters are put into perspective with chapters that introduce key sustainability challenges using a regional focus. Through this multi-scale and interdisciplinary approach the two volumes provide an authoritative source about the major sustainability challenges in the continent, and how to mobilise such perspectives to develop appropriate solutions. The two volumes have a uniquely broad focus that fills a major gap in the emerging Sustainability Science scholarship. Parts I-II highlight specific case studies on major sustainability challenges from Eastern and Southern Africa. Part III synthesizes the main lessons learnt from the chapters in the two edited volumes.
