The Pastoralist Assistance aims to provide a positive picture of pastoralists and pastoralism to both the public and to all those working with pastoralists. The pastoralists that we work with are proud and knowledgeable people and in many areas of the drylands of the horn pastoralists are actively pursuing a productive livelihood. They do not want to be constantly viewed as victims and believe that the media generally portrays them as poor, vulnerable and dependant on food aid. We therefore concentrate our news and events on positive work and events and stories concerning pastoralists.
