However, for some informants in Turkana County, often confronted with the harshest drought conditions in the area with dry seasons extending over many years, the assumption that the climate is not changing but is only going through cyclical phases is slowly disappearing. The immediate, short- and long-term effects of climate change have forced pastoralists to consider a number of adaptation mechanisms to drought. These strategies range from environmental action, social support-seeking, planning for drought, and consideration of alternative sources of livelihood. completed ICPAC Data Risk Management Nairobi KEN disaster-risk-management@igad.int originator /static/geonode/img/missing_thumb.png Thumbnail for 'Livelihoods Resilience & Migration In the Context of Slow Onset Climate Change in the IGAD Region' image/png ESRI Shapefile 1.0 Global place license Not Specified: The original author did not specify a license. copyright eng utf8 planningCadastre -180.0 180.0 -90.0 90.0 No information provided https://geoportal.icpac.net/documents/1764 WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Online link to the 'Livelihoods Resilience & Migration In the Context of Slow Onset Climate Change in the IGAD Region' description on GeoNode https://www.icpac.net/documents/778/Livelihood_Resilience_and_Migration.pdf WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Livelihoods Resilience & Migration In the Context of Slow Onset Climate Change in the IGAD Region.pdf Livelihoods Resilience & Migration In the Context of Slow Onset Climate Change in the IGAD Region (External Document Format) dataset
