RATIONALE\u00a0<\/strong>
\nThe capacity of herders, civic organizations, local governments and central government is weak to take cooperative actions for pasture land use, protection and rehabilitation. To fill in this gap, the implementation\u00a0 of “Green Gold” Phase II is required. .
\n“Green Gold” plans to provide large assistance for development and growth of management system in which pasture users plays an important role. It will support the activities of herders and other stakeholders against degradation of pasture lands which provide a livelihood basis for\u00a0800.000people<\/span>. In doing so, Green Gold will harmonize its support with Livestock Project and\u00a0CODEP<\/span>\u00a0funded by\u00a0SDC<\/span>,\u00a0UNDP<\/span>, WB, Mercy Corps and\u00a0IFAD<\/span>.
\nAwareness of herders will be raised as to how well pasture vegetation can be rehabilitated as a result of introducing appropriate technologies\u00a0 regarding what pastures animals should graze for how long and others. In this way, herders will be motivated to improve livestock quality and productivity, process meat and wool to produce added value and diversify their livelihood. As well they will be convinced in keeping the number of livestock in line with pasture carrying capacities.<\/p>\n

OVERALL GOAL<\/strong>
