Numéro spécial - Les éleveurs du Sahel face à la crise pastorale de 2009
This special issue of AGRIDAPE presents the consolidated results of research on the pastoral crisis that occurred in the Sahel in 2009/2010.
Pastoralism in its diversity plays an active role in providing food security. Some estimates say that the drought of 2009 affected nearly ten million people. The African pastoralist network Billital Maroobe (RBM) conducted a study in four countries in the Sahel on breeders’ perceptions of the crisis and on the performance of public programmes.
This special issue of AGRIDAPE supports this initiative and highlights the resilience of pastoralists that was found in the study.
