ผู้นำเสนอ: Joseph Lentunyoi
กิจกรรม: 2nd ECHO East Africa Pastoralist Symposium (03-03-2016)
Session: The session will share knowledge and practices which some pastoralist communities have chosen as alternative livelihoods in pastoralist areas. The ideas come from the local people, and demonstrate ‘people- care’, ‘earth-care’ and ‘fair-share’. Use of natural resources sustainably are highlighted through cob houses, local food production and peace building. Sustainable aloe harvesting from the wild is also promoted. A post-symposium field tour is being arranged to their nearby premises.
