Mobile pastoralist communities are 2 to 10 times more productive than settled ranching alternatives, restoring and enhancing their rangeland environments.
Pastoralists practice shared resource use and mobility, restoring ecosystems and enhancing climate benefits while contributing to sustainable food systems.
But while pastoralists safeguard our planet and provide food security to the communities inhabiting pastoral regions, they rarely have secure rights to land, territory and mobility.
Often politically marginalised, pastoralists commonly live and work within adverse land and resource policy frameworks, frameworks that fail to take the complexities of pastoral land use into account.
We're working with members to promote the rights of pastoralists to ensure healthy and sustainable rangelands and resilient livelihoods. Securing their land rights is not only good for them, it is also good for our planet.
