Située dans la partie orientale du Niger, la région de Diffa est une vaste étendue semi-aride dont l'équilibre entre les activités agricoles et pastorales est rompu par une nouvelle concurrence pour l'accès aux ressources naturelles, mais aussi par des conflits entre éleveurs autochtones et pasteurs transhumants. Ce rapport de synthèse présente les principales conclusions de l'analyse des conflits en trois parties: (i) dresse un état des lieux des conflits liés à la transhumance; (ii) identifie les initiatives de prévention et de gestion des conflits; et (iii) formule des propositions pour améliorer l'efficacité des mécanismes de prévention et de gestion des conflits.

IFAD’s second Biodiversity Advantage report showcases five IFAD projects which highlight the integral importance of biodiversity in agriculture. These projects show how promoting biodiversity improves human and ecosystem health, and the roles of small-scale agricultural producers in preserving and restoring biodiversity and schemes that reward them for their stewardship of healthy natural environments.

This report warns that the dominant picture of livestock’s impacts on climate change has been distorted by faulty assumptions that focus on intensive, industrial farming in rich countries. Millions of people worldwide who depend on extensive livestock production, with relatively lower climate impacts, are being ignored by debates on the future of food.

The FAO-CARE- CGIAR joint technical working paper will contribute to developing an FAO position and improved understanding of the links between, and risks of, climate change and various kinds of conflict as related to FAO’s mandate, with particular attention to crisis contexts in dryland forests and agrosilvopastoral areas. This working paper will unpack how combined climate shocks, environmental degradation, and conflict exacerbate people’s vulnerability and reflect how responses should adapt to tackle these compounding challenges and bolster resilience. The joint study will gather and analyse examples of strategies and interventions that help communities identify and mitigate combined climate, environmental and conflict risks. The joint study will be based on the premise that humanitarian, development and peace efforts are complementary and mutually-reinforcing and provide evidence that integrated responses offer the most effective way to tackle the root causes of people's vulnerability in crises contexts.

Aux confins de l’Afrique de l’est, quatre pays – l’Ethiopie, le Kenya, le Soudan du Sud et l’Ouganda – se rejoignent dans une intersection appelée le Karamoja cluster. Là-bas, la terre est dure, le climat rude et les ressources rares. Depuis longtemps, les habitants de la région de Karamoja, dépendent de l’élevage de bétail et de l’agriculture pour subvenir à leurs besoins. Mais ces dernières décennies, leur mode de vie s’en est trouvé menacé face à une variabilité climatique qui a intensifié les conflits existants autour des ressources naturelles.

In mountain socioecological systems, the interaction between nature and people is at the core of planning local long-term sustainable development strategies. The aim of this work is to characterize the traditional pastoralist system of the Puna (northwest Argentina) in a framework that highlights its diverse values and valuations within nature–people coproductions. We use the conceptual framework of the Intergovernmental Science–Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services as a tool to analyze and understand these socioecological systems.
