Dzud is the Mongolian term for a winter weather disaster in which deep snow, severe cold, or other conditions render for
high livestock mortality. Dzud is a regular occurrence in Mongolia, and plays an important role in regulating livestock popu
combined with other environmental or socio‐economic stresses and changes, can have a significant impact on household
economies. Mongolia has experienced documented changes in climate in the past 60 years, and extreme events such as d

Item 15: Pastoralism and Development in Africa: Dynamic Change at the Margins
Once again, the Horn of Africa has been in the headlines. And once again the news has been bad: drought, famine, conflic
of blame has been pointed in numerous directions: to the changing climate, to environmental degradation, to overpopula
agency failures, and more. But it is not all disaster and catastrophe. Many successful development efforts at ‘the margins’
illegal; and rarely in line with standard development prescriptions. If we shift our gaze from the capital cities to the region
very different perspective emerges. These are the places where pastoralists live. They have for centuries struggled with dr
resourceful, entrepreneurial and innovative peoples. Yet they have been ignored and marginalised by the states that cont

Horn of Africa, there is much to be learned from development successes, large and small. This book will be of great intere

Long-standing competition and conflict over access to pasture and water resources have been considered as factors that l

process of delineating electoral constituency boundaries and county districts in line with Kenya’s new constitution. The re

Item 21: Small scale livestock keeping – a sustainable future
Livestock keeping is often portrayed as a pathway out of poverty, particularly for the landless poor. However, in recent ye
approaches to poverty alleviation for livestock keepers are failing to produce the promised benefits, with producers facing

organised by the LPP in Bonn, Germany, gave an opportunity for livestock keepers and international experts to share their
