Climate change and pastoralism along the Ethiopia-Somaliland border

The ISIR undertook a study focusing on the pastoralists’ responses to climate change. The aim of the research was to determine the ways in which the pastoralist communities living along the Ethiopia-Somaliland border respond to climate change and explore ways in which these responses could be improved. Pastoralist communities’ vulnerability to climate change varies within and between communities and areas. While some of their innovations cannot be scaled to other areas or communities due to their localized nature, they can serve as starting points upon which pastoralists and other stakeholders base their response mechanisms. These stakeholders include researchers, development partners, and government authorities.
