Today, nearly 200 million nomadic
pastoralists throughout the world generate income and create llivelihoods in
remote and harsh environments where conventional farming is limited or not
possible. This number rises sharply when extensive agropastoralists are
included. Despite these figures, and the growing recognition of pastoralism as
a valuable and sustainable natural resource management system, pastoralists
remain socially and politically marginalized.
