Este documento da cuenta de cuál es el impacto económico del pastoreo a nivel nacional no solo mediante los ingresos obtenidos a través del mercado sino también del autoconsumo de los hogares. A su vez presenta las principales necesidades y desafíos que enfrentan las familias que llevan a cabo esta práctica en Argentina y destaca la necesidad de que las orga-nizaciones locales de la sociedad civil puedan recopilar y gestionar datos relevantes para el sector.

La vidéo présente une méthode d’analyse des enjeux de la transhumance transfrontalière, mobilisant la réflexion sur le futur : la prospective territoriale. La méthode a été utilisée au cours d’une étude de cas participative conduite par la FAO et ses partenaires (CIRAD, ISRA et organisations locales) au Burkina Faso et au Togo en 2019-2020, pour permettre aux acteurs locaux d’imaginer différents futurs pour leur territoire, et comprendre comment et pourquoi ces futurs peuvent se produire. Deux questions ont été posées: quels pourraient être les futurs du territoire transfrontalier entre Togo et Burkina Faso en 2035? Quels rôles et quelles fonctions pourrait jouer le pastoralisme dans ces futurs ? Les participants identifient et hiérarchisent les forces motrices et construisent des scenarios.

This video presents a way of thinking about the issue of cross-border transhumance by mobilizing a reflection on the future: territorial foresight. The method was implemented during a participative case study conducted by FAO and partners (CIRAD, ISRA, and local organizations) in Burkina Faso and Togo in 2019-2020, with the purpose of enabling local actors to imagine different futures for their territory and to understand how and why these futures may occur. Two main questions were raised: what could be the future of the border territory between Togo and Burkina Faso in 2035? What could then be the roles and functions of pastoralism in these futures? Participants identify and prioritize the driving forces and build scenarios.

The VGGT Popular Version for Communal Land Administration was developed to support the Parliament of Namibia in delivering training to traditional authorities and regional institutions to enhance their capacity to administer communal land within their jurisdictions. This was carried out in line with the Communal Land Reform Act, Act 5 of 2002 and the resolutions of the 2nd National Land Conference. The Popular Version outlines 14 pertinent land governance issues in Namibia’s communal areas. These issues which were validated by the MAWLR are discussed briefly and followed by identifying key messages of the VGGT that are relevant within the context of communal land administration in Namibia.
