Last week, for four days, great deliberations happened at Nairobi’s Institute of Monetary Studies, where unique and rare, timely continental conversations unfolded, conversations that placed African indigenous pastoralists at the centre of climate resilience, land stewardship, and sustainable development. 

The participants came from across twelve African countries – Niger, Chad, Tanzania, Uganda, Ethiopia, Sudan, Kenya, Burundi, Rwanda, among others.
