dc.description.abstract ABSTRACT The designing and implementation of effective pastoral sedentarization schemes and measures to improve pastoral household livelihoods in the study area depends on an in-depth understanding of the dimensions, covariates and magnitude of consequences of the program. Therefore, this study was carried out with the objectives of assessing the consequences of pastoralist Sedenterisation schemes in Ber’ano district Shabelle Zone of Ethiopian Somali Regional State. To achieve these objectives, household data on demographic, socio-economic and institutional characteristics were collected from 154 households drawn randomly from three kebeles. In light of this, both primary and secondary data were used. Both Quantitative and qualitative primary data was collected and used through structured interview, key informants’ interview and focus group discussions to generate data. Secondary data was obtained from published and unpublished materials, books, journals, project reports and maps. The main tool of data analysis for this study was descriptive statistical analysis. Descriptive statistics results indicate that there was a significant mean difference at different levels of significance between before and after sedentarization of pastoral households in terms of household size, farmland size (in hectare), TLU holding and annual income. With regard to access to social and institutional services, after sedentarization schemes in the study area, there are improvements of social and institutional services in terms of education, health, water and sanitation, communication, irrigation usage, use of improved agricultural inputs, extension service, credit and market services. The sedenterization scheme has slight effects on the traditional and social aspects of resettled households that contributed consequences in the study area. Finally, based on the findings of the study, some of the key recommendations to improve pastoral household sedenterization schemes in the study area include effective targeting of vulnerable and destitute households by improving the production, productivity and marketing conditions of crop and livestock, provision of basic social services, improved utilization of resources and promoting traditional social structures and networks like clan.
