Pastoralism, one of humanity’s oldest livelihoods, is undergoing significant change. This traditional practice involves moving livestock across landscapes in response to seasonal shifts and environmental conditions, relying on freedom of movement and shared rangeland grazing arrangements.
Pastoral communities are currently navigating profound environmental shifts impacting their lands. Tensions influencing their livelihoods include climate change, conflict with wildlife, and challenges related to access to land, water, and traditional migration routes. Despite these pressures, pastoralists are demonstrating adaptation and innovation, sustaining hundreds of millions of people globally.
