Impacts of Climate Change and Variability on Pastoralist Women in Sub-Saharan Africa

Published by Fountain Publishers and edited by Munyae M. Mulinge and Melese Getu, this volume examines the far-reaching effects of shifting environmental patterns across Sub-Saharan Africa. The collection focuses directly on pastoralist communities, exploring how changing climates and environmental variability affect the daily lives, responsibilities, and livelihoods of women living within these traditional systems.

Across 348 pages, the contributed papers analyse critical issues at the intersection of climate science, regional pastoralism, and gender relations. By presenting research grounded in African contexts, the book provides important insights into community resilience, pastoral economies, and the uneven burdens brought about by environmental change. It serves as a valuable resource for university students, lecturers, researchers, and development professionals working in environmental studies, social development, and African regional policy.
