Title
Namibia's Black Gold? Charcoal Production, Practices and Implications
Description
The charcoal industry is a fairly new industry in Namibia, being an innovative by-product of clearing invader bush. The industry grew significantly in the 2001–2010 period, and has now become an important economic sector. Its development as a labour-intensive industry has in turn attracted indigent and unskilled labourers who, however, fall outside the usual protection of the labour and health and safety laws because the industry itself remains unregulated.
