This was a great step towards implementation of the Participatory Rangelands Management (PRM) Project in strengthening the grazing land management institutions for proper governance of the rangelands for improved food security and livelihoods. The legal status of the Livestock associations is facilitating smooth implementation of the Community Rangelands Investment Funds (CRIF) with respect to approved Grazing land Management Plans.
