Full textAbstract:
Equality of educational opportunities has been an enduring concern of all post-colonial governments in Africa particularly Nigeria since independence in 1960. Huge investments have been made in education in order to reduce inequality of accessing education among different societies and ethnic groups in the country. It is against this background that the government is determined to bring education to every Nigerian child including pastoral nomads and migrant fishermen's children in order to mainstream them into the national affair. This paper therefore examined managing functional nomadic education for values re-orientation and sustainable national development with specific reference to Fulani herdsmen-community crisis. The paper looks at the following areas: the concept of nomads, nomadism, nomadic education, pastoralism, pastoralists, management of nomadic education, National Commission for Nomadic Education (NCNE), functions, objectives and achievements of NCNE, values re-orientation and sustainable national development;. The paper concluded that functional nomadic education is the only veritable tool to achieve values re-orientation among Fulani herdsmen and sustainable national development in Nigeria. It was recommended that nomadic educational programmes such as seminars, conferences, symposium and workshop should be organized for pastoralist teachers as well as Fulani herdsmen on values re-orientation and sustainable national development in order to guarantee peace in the entirety of Nigeria.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the principles of social organization among the nomadic population of modern Mongolia. Regarding the nomadic population of the studied territories, the authors identify two approaches to the formation of territorial communities of nomads. The first approach is associated with the integration of nomadic households into the market system of relations and the achievement of a high level of marketability. This served as a kind of trigger for economic individualization and the formation of nomadic families as separate economic cells. The second is the formation of a territorial community based on the economic and other interaction of specific individual households, representing the nomadic population that migrated from different remote regions. This heterogeneity opposes the tendencies of unification based on the principle of fraternal or kinship ties. And here, the fundamental principle of community is the place of residence.

Introduction. Transformation of a nomadic society is a multifaceted process. The social organization and inner structure of Mongolia’s nomadic society have undergone cardinal changes of the 20th century — only to experience various impulses of further development. Goals. The article aims to reveal the inner substantial side inherent to the transformation process within contemporary Mongolia’s nomadic society. The paper considers the social system of nomads as a self-organizing one that adapts to new market conditions and commodity-money relations to regenerate the institutions of traditional society, strengthen new social orders, and create advanced forms of social alliances and interactions. Materials. The work analyzes literary and field materials for insights into the phenomena of transformation in economic, social and cultural spheres of Mongolia’s nomads. Results. The study shows nomadic households are being gradually involved into market relations to be incorporated in the general division of labor system; defines functions of a contemporary nomadic community, such as protection of pastures in use, sharing of water and other natural resources, etc. Conclusions. The study delineates key characteristics inherent to the observed transformation of nomadic society, namely: commodification and individualization of nomadic livestock breeding and, as a consequence, rationalization of economic behavior, preservation of a mobile (migratory) lifestyle to be accompanied by fixation of nomadic boundaries and distinct localization of seasonal camps, replacement of traditional values by market ones. It is emphasized that kinship ties are being gradually replaced by territorial ones when it comes to identify borders of present-day nomadic social groups. The emergence of a territorial community attests to the overcoming of conservative features typical of nomadic society once largely based on family ties, tribal background, etc.

Abstract Gerontologists have made remarkable strides in understanding the experiences of older adults in various contexts. Yet, amid this progress, some communities remain overlooked, such as older nomads in Mongolia. Notably, Mongolia is one of the last bastions of nomadism in the world. Today, many of the remaining nomads are individuals in their later years. This study aims to illuminate the lived experiences of older nomads in Mongolia. Specifically, we explore how they navigate the duality of being old and nomadic, particularly amid a changing social, political, economic and environmental setup. We interviewed a total of 32 Mongolian nomads whose average age was 65.3 years. Thematic analysis was employed to identify themes related to life as an older nomad. Three themes surfaced: ‘Navigating Health Challenges Arising from Aging Bodies and Climate Change’ (Theme 1), ‘Desire to Preserve a Disappearing Heritage’ (Theme 2) and ‘Experiencing Neglect and Discrimination’ (Theme 3). This study marks an important foray into research on older nomads, airing the voice of a community that is not only under-represented, but also fast vanishing. In today’s context, their nomadic ways stand as an in bulwark against the tide of modernization. Our findings make a compelling case for continued research and policy design to enhance the quality of life of older nomads, even as their cultural heritage is safeguarded.

The issues of kinship in the social self-organization of nomads are considered. The results of field studies in various regions of Mongolia, which unambiguously record the existence of informal family-related groups, united on the basis of, first of all, common economic and household interests are presented. The author notes the functions of the nomadic community: law enforcement, expressed in the collective protection of pasture lands and their joint ownership; cooperative, involving labor cooperation, mainly of a seasonal nature, and spiritual, associated both with the holding of common religious, festive and other events, and with the regulation of conflict relations within the nomadic community on the basis of traditional moral values. It is shown that contradictions in the legal issues of the use of pasture lands, on the one hand, and the temporality and relativity of the territorial settlement inherent in the nomadic way of life, on the other, contribute to the stable existence of the nomadic community. It is concluded that socio-legal regulation in the absence of effective public-state institutions is replaced by traditional ideas about property rights, the carriers of which are represented by family-related groups of nomads. It is emphasized that the role of kinship as a characteristic social resource is also manifested in migration processes in Mongolian society.

<em>The study was carried out to ascertain the perception of nomadic education among nomads, assess the progress achieved so far, and implication of its failure on national security. Three research questions guided the study. The area of the study was northern Nigeria, and the research design adopted was a qualitative research design. Purposive sampling technique was used for selecting the sample for the study. The instrument for data collection was an interview protocol. The interview instrument was titled Perception, Policy Assessment, and National Security Implications of Nomadic Education Interview (PPANSINEI). The research questions were answered using content analysis by reading the transcripts from the transcribed audio data and labelling relevant pieces (coding). The coding enabled the researcher to identify similar information. The entire process of organizing and analysing the qualitative data collected was done with the aid of NVivo version 14. Findings of the study highlights the consensus among participants regarding the perception and practice of nomadic education among nomads: cultural relevance, community engagement, quality of teacher training, and government support. Participants emphasized concerns regarding the limited access to quality education due to the nomadic lifestyle, inadequate infrastructure, and insufficient resources. However, some participants noted positive outcomes, acknowledging that nomadic education has enabled some individuals to acquire basic literacy and numeracy skills, thereby fulfilling its primary goal. Participants also highlighted how the policy's shortcomings have widened the gap between nomadic and non-nomadic populations, increasing existing social and economic inequalities and straining social cohesion. The study therefore recommends among others that comprehensive strategies to combat extremism and promote social cohesion should be implemented, including investments in conflict resolution mechanisms, community dialogue initiatives, and vocational training programs to provide alternative livelihood opportunities for at-risk individuals.</em>

Full textAbstract:
This article examines the place of Nomadic peoples in an international constitutionalism. The article claims that an important element of a Nomadic culture is its sense of law. Such a sense of law differs from a constitutionalism which has privileged fundamental principles aimed to constrain acts of the executive arm of the State. Such a constitutionalism is shared by many contemporary domestic legal orders. Public international law also takes such a constitutionalism for granted. In the focus upon rules to constrain the executive arm of the State, the sense of law in Nomadic communities has slipped through arguments which the jurist might consider inclusive of the protection of such communities. This problem is nested in a legacy which has weighted down the history of European legal thought. The article initially identifies three forms of nomadism. The social phenomenon of nomadism has been the object of juristic commentary since the Greeks and Romans. The image of Nomadic peoples in such a legacy has imagined Nomadic peoples as lawless although the article argues that a sense of law has existed in such communities. Such a sense of law contradicts a State-centric international legal order. Public international law has reserved a special legal space relating to Nomadic peoples. The article identifies four arguments which might be rendered to protect Nomadic peoples in such a State-centric international community. Problems are raised with each such argument

ABSTRACT Background: The recent drop in immunization coverage in Nigeria has left more than 3.25 million children unimmunized and has risen concern over immunization completion among the under-five children. More so among underserved communities of pastoralist nomads and farmers that were isolated from immunization services because of operational and sociocultural factors. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional analytical (comparative analysis) study was carried out among 550 eligible caregivers of under-five children in nomadic and farming communities in Niger State, Nigeria. The mothers and caregivers paired with under-five children were recruited into the study using a multistage sampling technique. Data was collected using a validated interviewer-administered questionnaire. Data was analyzed with the statistical software package (version 23). Results: More than half of the under-five children studied were males in both the nomadic (57.5%) and farming (52.0%) communities. The aggregated score of immunization knowledge was significantly (P < 0.001) better (Good 44.4%; Fair 49.8%) among farmers compared to their nomads’ counterpart (Good 21.1%; Fair 43.6%). Conversely, almost all the respondents (98.2%) in nomadic community significantly had a good overall perception of childhood immunization compared to 77.1% in the farming community. More farmers’ children (99.6%) had received immunization compared to 92.4% of the nomads’ children. About 87.3% of farmers compared to 76% of the nomads’ (76.0%) children reported immunization completion. About 50.5% of the farmers’ and 41.4% of the nomads’ children have achieved immunization on card inspection. Conclusion: This study revealed that average immunization completion reported among under-five children in both farming and nomadic communities is higher than the national average. It is recommended that more strategies are needed to intensify immunization campaigns targeted at populations in Nigeria.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Nomadic populations are frequently isolated and vulnerable to diseases including tuberculosis (TB) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) due to limited access to health-related information and services, poverty, and social exclusion. We designed and implemented community-driven and -based outreach for TB and HIV based on the results of a TB knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP) survey in Adamawa, Nigeria. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study on KAP among nomads using an adapted WHO survey. A TB and HIV community-level active case-finding intervention among nomadic populations was planned and delivered based on the KAP survey results. Results: Among 81 respondents, 26 (32.1%) knew what caused TB. More than 60% reported no health facilities in their community. Radio and healthcare workers were primary sources of information on health. Using community input, we developed and broadcasted radio jingles to sensitize people to TB services. Outreach initiatives led to the verbal screening of 61,891 individuals and 306 were diagnosed with TB. Additionally, 4489 people underwent HIV testing, and 69 were HIV-positive, all of whom were linked to treatment. Conclusions: The results of KAP surveys can inform the design of evidence-based TB and HIV community-driven and -based case-finding interventions in rural Nigeria among nomadic populations.

Full textAbstract:
Providing equal quality inclusive education for all groups is challenging, especially among pastoral Nomads and other vulnerable populations in today’s world. The ethnographic study explores the educational problems that pastoral nomadic children faced in Swat, Pakistan. People depend on child labor, are influenced by customs, often move around, and economically face being isolated due to the remoteness of access to formal schooling. The study aims to understand the difficulties faced by nomadic families, explore their influence on children's learning, and research teaching strategies used around the world that work for these families. Nomadic parents, children, community heads, and representatives from the NGOs were interviewed and discussions were held using focus group interviews. Thematic Analysis found that problems related to gender inequality, using children for work, lack of infrastructure and seasonal migrants were all preventing students from getting an education. Yet, the survey found that most community members are interested in education that can be transported, adjusted for the seasons, and fits their culture. Results suggest that having traditional lessons, leaders from local communities, and flexible education methods are critical parts of educational policy. According to the study, if cycles of poverty and being marginalized are to end in nomadic groups, they need access to education designed for them. Recommendations are provided to policymakers, non-governmental groups, and teachers who create school curricula about giving opportunities to disadvantaged students and joining community-led movements.

The purpose of this paper is to present an analysis and critical reflection on the experience of educational-health operations developed in a nomadic community located in the vicinity of the city of Mongo, Chad. The purpose of these operations was to provide health and educational guidelines, respectful of their customs and culture, that would allow children to develop in a healthy and well being way. The activities, scope, complexities and challenges of the activities carried out in the two components of the operations are analyzed and discussed, as well as a set of interviews with different members of the nomadic clan. The results show an experience positively valued by the community, advances in school motivation and in health-related dimensions; but also difficulties in terms of institutionalization of the initiative, permanent and effective involvement of the nomads, sustainability over time and effective approach to the high expectations created in children and adolescents.

This article investigates the artistic and cultural significance of wooden carts within nomadic transportation. By examining both traditional and modern iterations of these carts, the study traces their design evolution in response to changing environmental, social, and technological factors. The wooden cart, as a key element in nomadic life, reflects not only the practical needs of nomadic peoples but also their cultural expressions and adaptations to diverse landscapes. This paper explores how these carts, as utilitarian objects, have carried rich cultural meanings across generations, becoming symbols of resilience, mobility, and resourcefulness. The study also looks at the broader context in which these carts were developed, analyzing how shifts in natural environments, societal structures, and technological advancements have influenced their design and use. Through an examination of their aesthetic features-such as form, structure, and ornamentation-the article reveals how wooden carts embody both utilitarian function and artistic expression. Additionally, the symbolic meanings attached to these carts, such as their connection to nomadic identity and community, are explored in relation to the ways nomads interact with and adapt to their surroundings. Ultimately, this paper aims to offer a deeper understanding of nomadic culture by focusing on the role of transportation tools like the wooden cart in preserving and transmitting cultural knowledge, while highlighting the ways in which these tools evolve over time to meet the needs of their users.

Background: Poliomyelitis, often called polio is a viral paralytic disease caused by Polioviruses. Although all susceptible individuals are at risk of getting infected, only about 1% become paralyzed. During the 2013 Polio Outbreak in Garissa County in Kenya, 50% of the confirmed cases were from the nomadic population although it comprises of only less than 20% of the total population in the county. Following concerns from the Horn of Africa Polio Technical Advisory Group (TAG) regarding inadequate vaccine coverage of nomadic population, several strategies were put in place to improve coverage and Acute Flaccid Paralysis case reporting among nomads in the rest of the planned 2014 polio vaccination campaigns. We describe strategies initiated from April 2014 by the Ministry of Health and partners to reach children in nomadic settlements in the two sub-counties of Dadaab and Fafi of Garissa County. Methods: The strategies involved improving the mapping and tracking of the nomadic population by establishing lists of nomadic settlements obtained from local clan leaders and government administrators, their <5-year-old populations and focal persons. Focal persons were used to mobilise residents in their respective settlements and guide vaccination teams during campaigns. Settlement leaders were sensitised to report cases of Acute Flaccid Paralysis. In remote hamlets, trained community health volunteers were used as vaccinators. In such places drugs for common illness were also provided during the campaigns. A tracking tool to monitor nomadic population movement and special tally sheets to capture data were created. Training of vaccination personnel and intense social mobilisation activities was done. Results and conclusion About 2,000 additional children, from both nomadic and non-nomadic areas were reached when the new initiatives were started. For the first time, an actual number of nomadic children accessed was documented. Suspected AFP cases continued to be reported from nomadic settlements, and the number of zero dose children among the nonpolio AFP cases dropped. With modification and improvement, these strategies may be used to take health services such as routine immunisation to nomadic communities and reduce their vulnerability to vaccine preventable disease outbreaks.

Gujjars are semi-nomadic tribes of Jammu and Kashmir who have been given Scheduled Tribe (ST) status due to their migratory and backward nature. The Gujjars are primarily nomads who move from plains to the higher altitudes with their cattles as part of their annual season journeys with their livestock. The literacy rate among the Gujjars community is low in comparison to other twelve scheduled tribe communities in the state. The present paper stresses on the status of education among the semi-nomadic Gujjar children in South Kashmir. The study aims to find out the reasons behind educational backwardness among Gujjar tribes. It also seeks to find out the measures taken by the Jammu and Kashmir government to provide education to Gujjar tribes.

Introduction. The problem of the research is the discrepancy between approaches to the use of socio-cultural resources of the modern sparsely populated Arctic region for preschooler’s upbringing with the possibilities of the upbringing space created at the initiative of a nomadic preschool educational organization. Nomads represent a special civilization. Children of nomads are physically developed: they have keen eyesight, good sense of smell and hearing, agility and quick reaction, etc. However, no attention is paid to the traditional indicators of the development, upbringing and socialization of a child, for example, the development of oral speech: the word is not the main means of solving life problems. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the possibility and prospects of creating an upbringing space on the initiative of a preschool educational organization in an Arctic nomadic environment. Methodology and methods of the research. The research is based on the activity-based, anthropological and event-driven approaches. Research methods: study of pedagogical literature and the legislative base of changes in the education system of the Russian Federation, pedagogical observation of children, interviewing nomadic parents and educators. Analysis of the upbringing traditions of indigenous Arctic peoples. A description of some of the practices and results of upbringing a preschool child-northerner in the family, clan community is presented. The sources of the early formation of independence and responsibility for the surrounding area of the indigenous northern peoples are substantiated. Results of the research. A scientific idea has been developed for the creation and implementation in a nomadic region of an algorithm for creating an upbringing space, created at the initiative of a multi-age community of a nomadic preschool educational organization. The algorithm is based on the concept of interaction of special socio-cultural institutions of the Arctic territory. The main directions of activities of communities of different ages for the development of educational space are proposed: creation of conditions for the formation of an ideological level, a respectful attitude to nature as a component of the human environment with living natural objects; realization of the potential of the preserved ethnocultural experience, traditions of leisure and economic management of the nomadic Arctic peoples; mastering the traditions of family life, the role of father, mother, head of the clan. Conclusion. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that in the course of the development and implementation of the algorithm for creating an upbringing space, the characteristics of the personality of a northerner preschooler living in a nomad were systematized; the conditions are determined, the peculiarities of creating an upbringing space on the initiative of a nomadic pre-school educational structure are substantiated; methodological materials have been developed that reveal the features of the reproduction of the proposed algorithm for creating an upbringing space. Prospects for the practical application of the research results. The results can be used in municipalities with similar territorial features for organizing nomadic preschool education and upbringing.

The Nat community, which involves the people of a Madheshi Dalit caste, comprises a nomadic lifestyle and history. The main objective of this study is to investigate the lifestyle, history, citizenship, ownership of property, profession, religion, education and usage of information technology of the nomadic community with permanent residence. In this research, descriptive and explanatory research framework has been adopted. Data were collected through in-depth interviews using qualitative and quantitative methods and household survey methods. Historical and frequency analysis were adopted to analyze data. Information and data were collected through in-depth interviews with 47 respondents using a semi-structured questionnaire. This study reveals that lifestyle and occupation of Nat community were closely related with their poor educational status. Out of 47 participants of this community, 45 had got Nepali citizenship. It was found that 43 of the 47 participants had their own house. It has been found that the main occupations of all 47 respondents were begging. Out of total, 58 percent of school age children were out of school and the school going children scarcely went to school. With their nomadic lifestyle and begging occupation, they appeared be in the primitive hunter-gatherer stage of human social development. Due to the lifestyle of the Nat community, they were found to be illiterate, poor and marginalized.

Full textAbstract:
The article explores the collective unconscious that has become understandable as the basis, which presumably through archetypes determines the specificity of the development of the European mentality. Our discourse as a mechanism is a field continuum where the archetypes of the collective unconscious are primary, and the specific interpretation and modification of the primary to the common meanings, the collective European mentality and the different plan of the semantic communications are secondary. The divergence of the paradigm shift between the epochs of modernity and postmodern quite accurately demonstrates the concept of Michel Maffesoli, penetrated by the institutionalism of romance. Presented in the teachings of nomadism reveals a new social practice, addressed to European culture. Allocating him the archetypal content as a source of social transformation of the new community necessitated the analysis of a number of conceptual ideas of nomadism on a fragmentary level. It should be emphasized that the term “nomads” and its international synonym for “nomads” do not have a unique use, but in psychology it is used to refer to a pathology based on an irrational one. The subject of the study was the phenomenon of nomadism, which is not only a clear way of life, but also an opportunity to search for the basics of further research into the specifics of civilizational development. As conditions for the genesis of this process are analyzed: the field of social life of nomads; the formation of a community in the form of a nomadic form of existence; the transformation of an identity with mobile properties; the process of destruction, understood as a transition from destruction, but not to death, but to rebirth; etc.

Full textAbstract:
Nomadic, de-notified and semi-nomadic tribes are considered to be the earliest inhabitants of any nation. Their sacrifices and sufferings in the past and present have resulted in a developing nation that we are today. Despite that, today, the nomadic tribal communities are the worst sufferers because of the lack of education, livelihood, occupation, fundamental rights, legal rights,etc.; they are considered to be the least developed. Failure in implementing the framework and crooked legislations had harvested their souls for our own selfish needs, and incarcerated the nomadic tribal community without providing them access to free legal aid service endeavouring for due justice. The present study broadly scrutinises these issues, problems and their ill effects because of which these communities are facing a lot of challenges and are unable to secure justice.

BACKGROUND: Nomadic life not only prevents the community from accessing and utilising HIV services but also deters them from obtaining reliable information on HIV.METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study of youth aged 10–24 years from the Kilindi and Ngorongoro Districts in Tanzania to assess knowledge, accessibility and utilisation of HIV/AIDS services among nomadic and agricultural youths.RESULTS: Of 518 youths interviewed, 279 (53.9%) were males, and 276 (53.3%) were from agricultural communities. A significant proportion of youths from agricultural communities had correct knowledge of AIDS (n = 126, 45.8%; P = 0.002), HIV transmission (n = 273, 98.9%; P = 0.001) and comprehensive knowledge of HIV/AIDS (n = 78, 28.5%; P = 0.009) compared to nomads. Youths from agricultural communities were two times (OR 1.8, 95% CI 1.2–2.6) more likely to be aware of the availability of formal HIV services. Awareness of the availability of HIV services was higher among married individuals than in unmarried ones (OR 3.8, 95% CI 2.0–7.4), and significantly higher among youths with secondary/college education than in those who did not have formal education (OR 5.3, 95% CI 2.3–12.4). The uptake of HIV services was lower among nomadic youths.CONCLUSION: Knowledge, awareness and utilisation of HIV/AIDS transmission services were low in general, and even lower among nomadic youths, calling for more targeted interventions.

Full textAbstract:
<em>This study examined the cultural perceptions of Western education among nomadic communities in Sarduna Local Government Area of Taraba State, Nigeria. Using a descriptive survey design, data were collected from 240 respondents across eight nomadic villages through structured questionnaires. The findings revealed that cultural and religious perceptions strongly influence educational attitudes of the nomads. A majority of respondents viewed Western education as alien to their culture (Mean = 3.70), a tool of colonial influence (Mean = 3.67), and a threat to traditional values (Mean = 3.41). Religious factors also played a significant role, with many believing Western education to be anti-Islamic (Mean = 3.55) and preferring Islamic education as sufficient (Mean = 3.58). Despite these reservations, respondents acknowledged the economic value of education, particularly its potential to improve employment opportunities (Mean = 3.68). Participants proposed several culturally appropriate strategies to enhance participation, including the establishment of mobile schools (Mean = 4.08), integration of Islamic content (Mean = 3.99), and the use of culturally sensitive teachers (Mean = 3.84). The study concludes that transforming perceptions and improving participation in Western education among nomadic groups requires culturally responsive, flexible, and community-driven approaches. Recommendations include mobile schooling, curriculum adaptation, religious leader engagement, and sensitization campaigns.</em>

This anthropological study delves into the economic strategies and mechanisms of the nomadic Moor community living alongside the Chenab River. Witnessing the unique economic practices that nomadic communities, such as the Moors, develop due to their cultural and environmental influences is truly captivating. This study aims to explore the Moor community's intricate economic activities in the Chenab River bank area. Ethnographic research methods will be utilized to uncover these complexities, including participant observation, interviews, and historical and contemporary data analysis. This study seeks to understand how the Moor community navigates economic obstacles while maintaining their nomadic way of life. It achieves this by examining their resource utilization patterns, trade networks, and strategies for making a living. Furthermore, this study explores the wider anthropological context of the Chenab River bank region, examining the complex connection between the economic practices of the Moor community and the social, cultural, and environmental dynamics of the area.

Full textAbstract:
This study investigates Himba pastoralists’ perceptions of risks to their livelihoods. Using a semi structured questionnaire, 20 pastoralists from a Himba community were interviewed. The results show that there are multiple perceived risks that are seemingly threatening their livelihoods. Most of the perceived risks are associated with natural resources; primarily the limited sources of water and the lack of adequate pastures. These two are the most important factors to a semi-nomadic 
 lifestyle; hence they pose the greatest threat to their livelihoods. Pressures from both wildlife and the increase in human population have also been recognized as risks to the community. While these perceptions of risks appear to have spurred the community into employing certain management strategies, this has not changed their semi-nomadic way of living as pastoralists. The current management strategies appear to be insufficient in managing the risks. The struggles of farmers in an arid country is expected under the climatic change dynamics, but the provision ofsolutions by the government is limited, especially for human wildlife conflicts. Thus, leaving thesemi-nomadic Himba people to continue being vulnerable to riskswith no feasible solutions at the moment. This begs the question of whether the nomadic way of living has a chance of surviving under the changing climate in dryland countries such as Namibia.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose: Increasing access to information and knowledge for nomadic communities supports sustainable development and improves the community’s livelihood while establishing active, responsible, and inclusive institutions at all levels. However, nomadic communities in arid and semi-arid lands have restricted access to information due to their geographical, economic, and social marginalization. The study aimed to determine the information needs of the nomadic communities in improving their livelihood in Garissa County. Methodology: The study is anchored by the Wilson model with the use of a descriptive survey research design. The target population was 377, including library users, heads of public libraries, and sub-county officers. The library users were sampled using multistage cluster sampling. The six educational officers and the three heads of libraries were chosen by purposeful sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires and interview schedules, which were validated and tested for reliability through per-testing in Tana River County. SPSS version 26 was used for data analysis and descriptive statistics was used to interpret the findings. Results: The findings revealed that nomadic communities in Garissa County have distinct and pressing information needs to enhance their livelihoods. Sustainable farming practices, effective livestock management, and educational opportunities tailored to the nomadic lifestyle were identified as key areas of interest. Public libraries, by providing tailored resources and programs, have addressed these needs to some extent. Conclusion: There is a need for regular information needs assessments to identify and address the specific information requirements of nomadic communities. Furthermore, public libraries should collaborate with community leaders to ensure that their collections and services meet the practical and cultural needs of the nomadic community, fostering greater engagement and livelihood improvement.

Full textAbstract:
Since February 2015, the government has provided tourism as a leading sector in development. It is, however, that this premise needs to be reviewed. As one of the popular destinations in Indonesia, after Bali, Yogyakarta is still dealing with acute poverty problems with an 11,7% poverty rate and disparity index of 0,423 (Gini ratio) by March 2019. This situation showed that tourism has not contributed to its vital role in empowering the community. The primary problem is concerning the lack of participation based-community in developing and managing tourism. Regarding that problem, community-based tourism is present as an alternative tourism model because it is concerned with optimizing local potentiality and local community empowerment. Meanwhile, some aspects, including access, amenities, and attractions, are essential in tourism development. In line with issues, the acceleration of digital technology has encouraged nomad workers and experience-based tourism attraction—both elements then actualized in nomadic tourism. According to the case study method, this research has investigated the potentiality of the nomadic tourism model in the Special Region of Yogyakarta: Bukit Kosakora (Kosakara Hill) in Gunung Kidul, Taman Bambu Air (Water Bamboo Park) in Sermo Reservoir, Kulonprogo, and Bukit Lintang Sewu (Thousand Stars Hill) in the Mangunan, Bantul, Yogyakarta. The three places are potentially pioneers of nomadic tourism in Yogyakarta. The research results highlight that all of these places have amenities, attraction, and access as opportunities to be nomadic tourism. However, they have implemented the basic principles of community-based tourism, but the realization is not yet fully optimal because of the matter in the institutional context.

This paper delves into a comprehensive exploration of the macro-level socio-economic landscape characterizing the Nat community, a de-notified tribe categorized as a scheduled caste in the state of Rajasthan, India. The primary aim is to furnish a nuanced understanding of the life and livelihood dynamics and the contemporary circumstances of the Nat community both at a national level and, more specifically, within the confines of Rajasthan. Historically, the Nat community is a nomadic group of entertainers who performed for Rajput kings and their subjects through dance and acrobatic skills. Drawing upon an amalgamation of existing scholarly works, the most recent datasets, and pertinent information from sources such as the 2011 census and reports issued by the National Commission on Nomadic, Semi-nomadic, and De-Notified Tribes, the paper unfolds across various thematic sections. These segments include an examination of the historical trajectory of the Nat community, an assessment of their social standing across different states, an exploration of the diversities, divisions, and deprivations experienced by the Nat community in Rajasthan, and a macro-level reflection on their demographic, educational, and economic profiles. Through this multi-faceted approach, the paper aspires to contribute valuable insights into the intricate socio-economic fabric that encapsulates the Nat community in the Indian context.

Using a qualitative ethnographic study of early childhood centres and lower primary schools operating in rural areas in a nomadic Turkana community of Kenya, this paper considers the failure of universal education to meet the culturally relevant educational needs of nomadic children. The study explored the extent to which the curriculum of schools in nomadic communities integrates indigenous epistemologies and social cultural lifestyles of the people in science instruction. Drawing from the literature and theories of indigenous people’s education in Canada, New Zealand and the United States of America, the paper discusses the critical role of indigenous epistemologies in science education.

This paper re-conceptualizes the four-seasonal cycling tradition of pre-Soviet Kyrgyz pastoralism, reconsidering the existing archival and oral materials. It argues that the summer quarters (zhailoo) in nomadic cycling were “core contact zones” for whole clan-based Kyrgyz community in pre-Soviet time whereas, the other winter, spring and autumn quarters remained in the margins. In addition, since all small and large nomadic groups from different regions were interacting in summer quarter, practicing the common language, ceremonies and traditions, this quarter also was preventing the emergence of different languages or dialects, social and cultural differences among Kyrgyz nomadic groups.

Full textAbstract:
Nomads are susceptible to TB because of limited access to TB services, inadequate nutrition, high prevalence of bovine TB, intake of unpasteurized milk, and migratory lifestyle, among other factors. Enhancing community knowledge and awareness plays a vital role in aiding prompt identification of TB; a fundamental aspect of the End TB Strategy. Although there have been several studies on knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP) related to TB in Nigeria, no research has specifically focused on KAP towards TB among Nomads. Data from 160 individuals in Nomadic pastoralist communities across 2 LGAs in Adamawa State, were collected as part of a 2-arm randomized controlled trial. This study aimed to assess the KAP of Nomadic pastoralist population, using a multi-stage sampling method. Data were gathered by a validated and pretested, structured questionnaire and analysed using SPSS Version 22. Descriptive variables were summarized using frequency counts, and Chi-square test was employed to examine associations. Gaps in TB knowledge, variation in hygiene practices and beliefs about TB causes and transmission were observed. For instance, 15% of nomads have sound knowledge of TB in the intervention group as against 36.3% in the control group. 17.5% in the intervention group have a positive attitude toward TB compared to 15.0% in the control group. 22.5% of the respondents in the intervention group show adherent practice as against 20.0% in the control group. Community-specific health education programs targeting hygiene promotion campaigns, emphasizing key practices of cough etiquette, and pasteurization of milk should be developed and implemented.

Particular attention is paid to the authors, who put the concept of «community» in the first place, denying the role of kinship as the main feature of nomadic civilization. Nomadic civilization is one of the least studied phenomena in the history of law and the state. The historical analysis of those studies that were carried out by various historians and state experts in Kazakhstan is given. The author pays a special place to the research of the domestic Kazakh historian and state expert Zh.O. Artykbaeva. His point of view forms the basis of this study. On the basis of the Kazakh school of law, the author substantiates the advantages of the generic principle in the study of «nomadic civilization».

Full textAbstract:
Background Onchocerciasis is a neglected tropical disease with 217.5 million people globally at risk of having the infection. In both settled and semi-nomadic communities of Massangam Health District in Cameroon, Sightsavers has been carrying out test-and-treat with doxycycline and twice-yearly ivermectin distribution. This paper focuses on the cost of test-and-treat with doxycycline in the two community contexts of settled and semi-nomadic. Methods For the valuation, a combination of gross or micro-costing was used to identify cost components, as well as bottom-up and top-down approaches. The opportunity costs of vehicle and equipment use were estimated and included. Not included, however, were the opportunity costs of building use and Ministry of Public Health staff salaries. We only captured the incremental costs of implementing test-and-treat activities as part of a functional annual community-directed treatment with the ivermectin programme. Results We estimate the economic cost per person tested and cost per person treated in Massangam to be US$135 and US$667 respectively. Total implementation cost in the settled community was US$79,409, and in the semi-nomadic community US$69,957. Overall, the total economic cost of implementing the doxycycline test-and-treat strategy for onchocerciasis elimination in Massangam came to US$168,345. Financial costs represented 91% of total costs. Conclusions Unit costs of test-and-treat in both settled and semi-nomadic communities are higher than unit costs of community-directed treatment with ivermectin. However, it is critical to note that a two-year implementation shows a significantly larger reduction in infection prevalence than the preceding 20 years of annual community-directed treatment with ivermectin. Test-and-treat with doxycycline may be a cost-effective intervention in places where the prevalence of microfilaria is still high, or in hard-to-reach areas where community-directed treatment with ivermectin and MDA coverage are not high enough to stop transmission or where marginalised populations consistently miss treatment.

Full textAbstract:
This essay is my interpretation of the gender negotiation of the Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho in Finland. I demonstrate, by examining the public's reception of Kaija Saariaho and her own experiences, how the gender negotiation of gender identity and the presentation of a woman composer take place, as ongoing processes, between the realms of conventional otherness (the socially constructed category of women composers) and real-life experiences of the individual. The analysis is done through the theoretical lenses offered by DE LAURETIS (1988) CITRON (1993), FOUCAULT (1984) and the epistemology of nomadic transitions by BRAIDOTTI (1991, 1994). I claimed that Saariaho has negotiated her gender not “within” the male-dominated system but “with” it, defining a new gender subject position: the position of the nomadic subject.

The present research paper is based on Bharaltoo dance of Hattee area of Giripar of Sirmaur district. In earlier time, sheep and goat rearing was a primary occupation in the upper region of Sirmaur. used to live a nomadic life. They used to take their sheep and goats to Churdhar and its surrounding hills in summer and to warmer areas in winter. These nomadic shepherds had their own culture, lifestyle and traditions. An important aspect of their culture is Bharaltoo dance which was performed by these sheep herders of Hattee community. Earlier this dance was a type of Swang dance (dance drama) which gradually took the form of a traditional dance. With the passage of time, people reduced sheep and goat rearing and the nomadic lifestyle also began to fade away. As a result, the traditions of shepherds and this dance slowly became extinct. But in some villages of the Giripar region, people are still performing traditions related to Bharaltoo, among which Bhadhalti Sagarand, Badhale Re Shanol and the winter festival of Maghi are famous.

To identify and define a complex of historical, archaeological and linguistic materials representing information about the population of the Ik-Belaya interfluve in the 13th–14th centuries. Research materials: The article uses materials of archaeological research, as well as written and epigraphic sources from the territory of the Ik-Belaya interfluve of the 13th–14th centuries. Novelty and results of the study: During the period of the Golden Horde (Ulus of Jochi), the agricultural and Muslim population from the Bulgarian ulus began to actively penetrate into the territory of the Ik-Belaya interfluve (Agidel-yurt) while the steppe zone was inhabited by a nomadic population. Earlier, only the Tatar military aristocracy penetrated into the Bulgarian ulus, but nomadic tribes did not do so. Later, the border between the settled agricultural and nomadic populations became dynamic due to the crisis in the Late Golden Horde period. The northern part of the Eastern Kama region remained exclusively developed by the Muslim agricultural population which later became the basis for the formation of the Tatar people.

Full textAbstract:
Over the last 20 years, Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia, has witnessed unprecedented urbanisation. Nomadic families from the rural provinces of the country have been pouring into the city and developing the so-called ‘ger settlements’. The traditional mobile dwelling, the ger (Mongolian for ‘yurt’), forms the nucleus of semi-formal settlement compounds, where yurts and makeshift shelters are surrounded by improvised walls and connected by dusty access lanes. Ger settlements lack essential urban services, such as water and sewage systems, as well as many public services and public spaces. At the same time, ger settlements are dynamic, hybrid spaces in which nomadic/rural and urban lifestyles still merge today, bearing problems but also opportunities for the city, as linkages to former nomadic lifestyles. The paper discusses challenges to community making and empowerment when transforming from nomadic life style to urban life and these are linked to the traditions and daily routines of ger settlement Yarmag.

To fight it, endemic East African countries adopted the World Health Organization’s SAFE Strategy, targeting surgery, antibiotics through mass drug administration (MDA), facial cleanliness and environmental improvement. Trachoma persists among nomadic communities along the Kenya–Uganda and Kenya–Tanzania borders. To address this, Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda launched synchronized MDA campaigns, simultaneously treating populations across borders. Successes included joint planning, community involvement and intergovernmental cooperation, although challenges remained in resourcing MDA cross-border focal points and in addressing coverage and funding. Novel strategies like synchronized joint cross-border MDA with community engagement are vital for sustainable trachoma elimination in these nomadic settings.

"How “Pulaaku” Moral Value Influence Nomadic Fulani Perception and Non-Participation in Educational Community Development in Ikara District, Kaduna, Nigeria." International Journal of Social Science Research 5, no. 1 (2017): 76. http://dx.doi.org/10.5296/ijssr.v5i1.10355.
Full textAbstract:
Pastoral Fulani nomads are among the marginalized and educationally disadvantageous communities in Nigeria, and many African countries. Since education remained the mechanism for individual, community and national developments, such groups need to be given attention for the success of sustainable development goal in African nations. To achieve this, human, as well as sociocultural hindrances associated with their educational development need to be evaluated. Therefore, this study explore how pulaaku moral value influences the understanding and perception of the nomadic Fulani in education as the precipitating factor for non-participation in education in Ikara district. Two themes emerged as the findings; firstly Perception of the pastoral Fulani on education generally. Secondly factors precipitating non-participation, is presented into subthemes; strict adherence to pulaaku moral values, fear of fragmentation of social capital, lack of role model and parent ignorance. Thus, the study concluded that Fulani pastoral communities have positive perception on education, but it was evident that socio-cultural factors such as lacking role model with pulaaku principle, perception in fear of the system as a threat to social capital and ignorance influenced their low participation. Hence, there is the need for policymakers, government agencies and stakeholders to have an in-depth conceptual understanding of the Fulani values through funding ethnographic research project, and possibly integrate its ideas and those factors in the design of an acceptable nomadic education system particularly the pulaaku. Also, integrate community-based volunteer groups, purposively for advocacy and awareness will enhanced the group understanding and participation in educational community development.
