Abstract

Participatory rangeland management (PRM) is a community-led process for improving the management and governance of rangelands, supported by facilitators and technical advisors. This animated film describes the process, and in particular the use of the 'four legs' goat, to understand the four main pillars of PRM.

These are: 1. Establishment and governance of the rangeland unit, 2. Management of the rangeland unit, 3. Using a landscape approach, and 4. Relations with government and customary institutions.
