Bimonthly Pastoral Monitoring in the Sahel – No. 31 / February – March 2025 17/06/2025
Summary :
The February–March 2025 Pastoral Monitoring Bulletin, published by Action Against Hunger, highlights key challenges for pastoralism in the Sahel. This transition period between the cold and hot dry seasons is characterized by the drying up of temporary water points and widespread bushfires that have reduced forage availability. Nevertheless, pasture remains generally sufficient. Seasonal transhumance movements are mainly downward, but abnormal or forced movements linked to insecurity are also reported. The body condition of livestock ranges from fair to satisfactory, although suspected disease outbreaks are noted. Cereal and livestock prices are mostly rising, but terms of trade remain unfavorable for herders in many areas. Livestock theft, limited market access, and the arrival of refugees are further complicating conditions in certain regions.

Pastoral Surveillance Bulletin in Burkina Faso – February–March 2025 17/06/2025
Summary :
The pastoral monitoring bulletin for February–March 2025, published by ACF, VSF-B, RBM, and RECOPA, assesses the pastoral situation in Burkina Faso. This period marks the transition between the cold and hot dry seasons, with widespread drying of temporary water points and declining natural pastures, worsened by bushfires. Transhumance movements, especially toward the south, are disrupted due to ongoing insecurity, closure of pastoral corridors, and tensions with crop farmers. The body condition of livestock is fair overall, although some animal diseases have been reported. Market access remains limited in several areas, with rising food prices and deteriorating terms of trade. The security context continues to restrict movement, while the presence of internally displaced persons (IDPs) adds further pressure on already strained resources.

Pastoral Surveillance Bulletin – April–May 2025 10/07/2025
Summary :
The pastoral surveillance bulletin published by Action Against Hunger (ACF) covers April to May 2025 in eight departments of Niger (regions of Tahoua, Tillabéri, Maradi, and Diffa). It aims to monitor pastoral conditions and guide humanitarian action. The report highlights early vegetation degradation in certain areas, unusually low water point levels, and a decline in livestock body condition. Security challenges persist, restricting access to grazing zones. Market access is also disrupted, impacting both livestock and food prices. The bulletin calls for urgent support in livestock feed distribution, secure access to natural resources, and strengthening pastoral resilience strategies.

Vulnerable Groups: Persons Living with Disabilities 24/06/2025
Summary :
In this video interview published on November 18, 2020, Maleine Amadou Niang, Country Director of the International Budget Partnership (IBP) in Senegal, discusses the situation of people living with disabilities. He highlights the lack of reliable data, citing the 2013 ANSD census which recorded 5.9% of Senegal’s population as disabled. Niang emphasizes public policy shortcomings in inclusion, funding, and accessibility. He advocates for strengthening institutional capacities, improving national statistics, and ensuring effective inclusion of persons with disabilities in budgeting processes. He calls for transparent, participatory governance and notes that using this data will help guide national priorities. The talk underscores the importance of official recognition and a budgeting approach that is sensitive to gender and disability.
