Despite all the efforts of development agencies, pastoral
communities in Africa are no less vulnerable to drought, famine and
environmental degradation than they were during the 1950s. Agencies
working with pastoralists have concentrated on technical programmes
to combat the threats but Julian Prior argues that their
initiatives would be more sustainable if they were supported by
social development which strengthened the institutional capacity of
pastoral communities. Improved technologies should make a positive
contribution to the security of pastoral peoples: food security,
political security and the security of rights to land and water.
Community development workers, for whom this book is written, have
a major role to play in this process.
