Community Development Resource Network
About
Pastoralists in Africa are some of the poorest and most vulnerable populations in the region. The conflict landscape has intensified due to land grabs, competition for scarce resources, organised crime, tensions between authoritarian regimes and the demand for political participation and poorly conceptualised interventions. This project empowers 27,220 members of marginalised communities: Mbororo (in East, West, North-West and Adamaoua districts, Cameroon), Samburu, Turkana, Rendille, and Borana (in Isiolo and Marsabit counties, Kenya), and Batuku and Basangora (in Rwenzori region, Uganda) directly (and approximately 2 million people indirectly) to prevent violence by creating early warning mechanisms. They will be able to better predict and prevent identity-based conflicts, hold duty-bearers to account, and achieve better well-being and developmental outcomes.
