The journal Global Change, Peace & Security last week published a series of articles on natural resources in Western Sahara.
The series of articles are published in an issue with a special focus on Western Sahara.
The articles are written by the contributors of a conference on Western Sahara natural resources held in Melbourne 19-20 March 2015, co-hosted by Centre for Citizenship, Development and Human Rights at Deakin University and Australia Western Sahara Association.
The publication contains articles such as:
