Pastoralists move their livestock with the seasons, in search of good pasture across the drylands. Recent droughts in Africa are making decision makers question the viability of pastoralism, particularly in the face of future climate variability and change.

The Self-evaluation and Holistic Assessment of Climate Resilience of Farmers and Pastoralists (SHARP) enables smallholder farmers and pastoralists to assess their own climate resilience. Developed by FAO in collaboration with external partners, it also provides key data to help scientists and policy-makers in their efforts to reduce the risks associated with climate change.

This article looks at the restoration programmes in four cross-border regions of the Great Green Wall: Bankass in Mali; Dori and Djibo in Burkina Faso; and Tera in the Niger. It focuses on the restoration model, with the planting of environmentally well-adapted and economically useful local plant species in agrosylvopastoral systems, including tree, shrub and herbaceous species.

These reports detail evidence and data of long-term changes in the drylands of Eastern Africa and the implications of these for efforts to strengthen resilience within pastoral systems. A new framework and approach - Pastoralist Livelihood Systems Analysis - has been used to analyse the dynamics and impacts of change over time in five pastoral systems in the region: the Somali zone of Ethiopia, the Borana Plateau in southern Ethiopia, the South Rift Valley in Kenya, the Karamoja region of Uganda, and Bahr al Ghazal in South Sudan. The studies are based on a review of over 400 scholarly and grey literature reports, as well as assessment of over 100 data-sets from the region.
