Abstract
Assessment of Adaptation Strategies and Knowledge on Climate Change among Pastoralists and Agro-Pastoralists in Fafi and Dadaab Ecosystems
The study assessed Adaptation strategies and Knowledge on climate change among pastoralists and agro-pastoralists in Fafi and Dadaab ecosystems. The study area is located Bura to the South, Tana River to the South West, Garissa to the West, Republic of Somalia to the East and Wajir to the North. The area; home to over half a million refugees, falls within arid and semiarid lands (ASALs) and is incredibly vulnerable to climate change and variability.
