DescriptionOxfam East Africa - Herdsmen Who Fish.jpg |
The Akadeli school for herdsmen is a pilot project developed by Oxfam that was conceived as a resource to allow herdsmen of Turkana to regroup in the face of the crisis created by the drought. At their meetings, the herdsmen share their knowledge and their experiences, which range from techniques for treating illnesses to making decisions about the best time to sell livestock. Given the seriousness of the crisis, the group works to disseminate this information to their fellow herdsmen. But the majority of them have lost all of their animals, and so, with the help of a system of community microcredit, they try to find new solutions. One of these, supported by Oxfam, is the development of fishing in Lake Turkana. Thanks to these fish, which are usually dried and sold, the herdsmen have found new sources of income and have diversified the nutrients in their own diet as well. Photo: Irina Fuhrmann/Oxfam |
