Presented By: Josephine N. Ng’ang’a

Event: 2nd ECHO East Africa Pastoralist Symposium (02-03-2016)

Session: RIPAT- Diversification in Pastoral areas for food security and improved livelihoods Some of the work currently being done in the area of peace-building suggests that economic development and people’s livelihoods are important pieces of the ‘peace puzzle’. Poverty and competition for limited resources are often important factors in violent conflicts, particularly where the underlying causes of conflict are related to the means whereby people make their living. Diversification of livelihood sources is key in ensuring food security in conflict and peace building.
