Change in climate and climate extremes are acknowledged as a vital challenge to pastoral production systems. Alternative systems that are accessible to a household in order to make a living could determine the household’s resilience at a given point in time. This study was conducted in the Southern Afar region in Ethiopia to understand the resilience of pastoralists to climate change and variability.

Pratiqué par des populations vivant sur les parcours et exploitant des troupeaux d’herbivores domestiques, le pastoralisme est une activité agricole de production, une forme d'élevage extensif, qui suppose un rapport étroit entre l'espace pastoral, les hommes qui y vivent et les troupeaux qu'ils exploitent. Quelles que soient les régions du monde le concernant, les animaux conduits sur un mode extensif utilisent les ressources de la végétation naturelle, mais aussi d’autres ressources, fourrages ou aliments concentrés, associées à ce système alimentaire dominant

Mokoro’s Women’s Land Tenure Security Project (WOLTS) in Mongolia is investigating the state of women’s land tenure security in pastoral areas affected by mining. This report discusses possible means to improve gender equity in land tenure governance and secure the land rights of vulnerable people within communities, as well as support to communities to withstand threats to their land and natural resources. The report shares findings from Mongolia – a country that is well-known for both its longstanding traditions of nomadic herding and its mining boom over the past two decades. It concludes with comparative conclusions that shed light on the intersection of gender, land, pastoralism, and mining in Mongolia today.

Based on field research, never publicly-seen-before documents, and an in-depth investigation into Tanzania’s land laws, the report reveals how Tanzania’s Maasai are facing appalling levels of human rights abuses in the name of conservation and the promotion of safari tourism in the Ngorongoro and Loliondo regions. The report specifically exposes the devastating impact of two foreign companies on the lives and livelihoods of the Maasai – Tanzania Conservation Ltd (TCL), a safari business operated by the owners of Boston-based high-end safari outfitter Thomson Safaris and the United Arab Emirates (UAE)-based Ortello Business Corporation, which runs hunting excursions for the country’s royal family and their guests.

A report on a FAO/WFP Crop and Livestock Assessment Mission to Mongolia in 2017, prompted by the prolonged drought from mid-May to end-July that sharply reduced the 2017 crop output and depleted rangeland conditions, raising serious concerns over the impact on livestock ahead of the winter/spring period. It estimates the impact of the dry weather on the 2017 wheat, potatoes and vegetable production; the impact on hay production and fodder supplies for the livestock sector for the forthcoming winter/spring months and; the impact of the drought on households, their coping strategies and contingency plans in view of the coming winter.
