Dear colleagues,

We are happy to present to you the new FAO-IUCN joint publication titled Crossing Boundaries: Legal and policy arrangements for cross-border pastoralism.

In many countries, pastoralism has historically been practiced in areas that are now partitioned by international boundaries. This is a major barrier to sustainable resource management and to pastoral development. However, there are examples from around the world of efforts to facilitate transboundary movements and transboundary ecosystem management by pastoralists. This publication examines how pastoral mobility has been impacted by the creation of unnatural boundaries within their landscapes and how societies cope with these constraints through legal or informal arrangements.

You can read more about this important publication in the article below.

Please feel free to share through your networks!


Best wishes,
Team of the Pastoralist Knowledge Hub

Mobility is the key strategy of pastoralists to adapt to variable resources and manage uncertainties found in the rangelands. In doing so, they may move within national territories or across borders, following fixed or flexible routes. At the same time, this strategy allows rangelands to regenerate and provides a host of environmental benefits across a large area.
