Web resources on Pastoralists in the Horn of Africa.
                Compiled by Resoum Kidane

The Horn of Africa Pastoralists have been the victims of drought and conflict in the last 25 years. As a result of conflicts, land mines and drought, many of them have been displaced from their land resources. This human devastation was mainly caused by the internal instability and climetic variation.
Many local and international organisations have intervened to resolve this disaster, and many of their works have been published in print and electronic media. With the arrival of the internet, many organisations have made their publications accessible on the web in order to share their experience with other researchers, donor organisations, and policy makers. However, it is not an easy task, to find them on the web, as there are billions of documents on the net. This is one of the reasons for compiling some useful web resources on Pastoralists in the Horn of Africa:
 • to help researchers and other policy makers, who are interested in this   subject, and
 • to identify relevant resources on Pastoralists in the Horn of Africa for the use of researchers .

The entry of these web resources are divided by Pastoralists in the Horn of Africa; organisation websites on Pastoralist and other related to climate change.
Most of the resources are research papers of academics and researchers interested in Pastoralist report papers, on-going projects concerning Pastoralists , Report papers of policy-makers, grassroots organizations and NGOs.
