Tahira Shariff: How do pastoralists cope with shocks and stresses? Alongside interventions like aid insurance, moral economy is important. Our study in Northern Kenya found that mutual forms of support and distribution still thrive and are continuously evolving.

A couple wearing traditional Mexican sombreros stand on a hilltop and look out over a mountainous landscape. The couple have their backs turned to the camera. A sheepdog sits beside them. To their left, there is a tall cactus, and there are a few bushes around them.

A wooden shack with a tin roof, in a small clearing surrounded by trees with overhanging branches. It is night time, and the only light comes from some lamps hanging outside from the roof of the shack, illuminating the scene and casting deep shadows. You can see a small table through the open door of the shack.

A Mexican woman in her forties sits on the ground surrounded by goats on a hillside. She is holding a white cloth carrier bag in front of her. She is wearing a straw sunhat and her face is shaded despite the bright sunshine. She wears a bright pink t-shirt over a long-sleeved teal top, and blue jeans.
