About Us

Pastoralist Sustainable Initiative

The Pastoralist Sustainable Initiative (PSI) is a dynamic, women-led organization dedicated to promoting sustainable pastoralism and empowering pastoralist communities. Our leadership team, composed entirely of professional women, is passionate about addressing the unique challenges faced by pastoralist societies, particularly those affecting women and children.

At PSI, we believe that when women lead, communities thrive. Together, we are creating a brighter, more sustainable future for pastoralists everywhere, driven by the strength, knowledge, and leadership of women

Core Values

Community Driven Development

PSI adapts the Participatory Integrated Community Development (PICD), a community mobilization process that invokes a conversation with community to enable them point out resources, identify their challenges, and to come up with solutions to the identified challenges.

This holistic approach addresses various aspects of growth and progress simultaneously. It goes beyond isolated initiatives and instead focuses on the interconnected nature of social, economic, environmental, and cultural factors within a community.
