CELEP (Coalition of European Lobbies for Eastern African Pastoralism), organiser of this Perspectives on Pastoralism Film Festival, contributed to the development of three animated videos used in the MOOC on “Pastoralism in development”.
Pastoral development would benefit greatly from a better understanding of pastoralism by project planners. As an entry point for navigating the available knowledge on pastoralism, including empirical observation, scientific research and theoretical reflection, CELEP member organisation IIED (International Institute for Environment & Development) and Saverio Krätli (editor of Nomadic Peoples) have created a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC), funded by Misereor, Germany. The MOOC on “Pastoralism in development” was launched on 30 January 2023 and is open for self-learning.
The introductory course supports learning through a range of media including videos, photos, audio material, interviews, graphs, animation and presentations. Three of the animated videos used in the course were prepared in collaboration with other CELEP members: Agrecol Association, DITSL (German Institute for Tropical & Subtropical Agriculture) and VSF-B (Vétérinaires Sans Frontières Belgium).
