Ainsi, entre 1975 et 2013, le Niger a enregistré une régression des terres de pâturage de 15% associée à une augmentation des terres de culture de 94%.

    Community-Led Rangelands Assessment promotes the use of traditional or indigenous knowledge of pastoralists, as the dominant group utilizing rangelands, to guide planning and management of rangelands resources to support and build resilient pastoral livelihoods. Use of traditional knowledge is considered cheaper, easier to use and replicable. It promotes the respect of local communities’ culture and its integration into scientific methods.
