Dynamic Drylands | "Invisible, yet indispensable": Fulani pastoralist women - in their own words

The life of a pastoralist isn’t easy – and for pastoralist women, who often have little control over resources or decision making, it’s even harder. In this bonus edition episode of Dynamic Drylands, Fulani pastoralist women in northern Nigeria provide their own perspectives on how a locally led research exercise has improved their lives and livelihoods. Through training pastoralist women to be researchers, Nigerian NGO FUDECO (the Fulbe Development and Cultural Organization) has provided women with new skills and income – but also an expanded vision of themselves as valuable and active community members.
