Résumé : | Global drylands comprise over 40% of the earths land surface, support millions of pastoralists and account for half of the worlds livestock. Climate change and socio-economic drivers are rapidly altering dryland social-ecological systems, with the potential to increase vulnerability. This article describes forces of change in drylands and the social changes observed in pastoralist dryland systems, with a focus on Africa. The observed changes point to changes in values, social/gender relations, livelihoods and institutions, all fundamental elements of transformational adaptation. The paper concludes with a discussion of transformational adaptation research and its implications for policy. |
