Pastoral Mobility for Sustainable Livelihood System

In the paper ”Pastoral Mobility for Sustainable Livelihood System” that was presented at the Info Point Belgium by Ken Otieno (Technical Coordinator, Rangelands Initiative Africa Region)  the importance of pastoral mobility for a sustainable livelihood was stressed. It addresses the lack of quantitative monitoring data on pastoral mobility and herding behavior. The approach to pastoral empowerment which is put forward in this paper is to improve management of rangelands, give recognition to pastoral tradition water and natural resource management, strengthen the pastoralist’s inbuilt capacity and lastly to map pastoral land and its resources.
