Impacts of livelihood assets on livelihood security in drought-prone Gamo lowlands of southwest Ethiopia
文献摘要:
Livelihood assets are a matter of high concern for secured survival. Drought-prone Gamo lowland households have differential access to livelihood resources which indicates the varying capacity of resisting to shocks. The main objective of this study is to explore the impacts of livelihood assets on livelihood security in the drought- prone Gamo lowlands. Multistage sampling procedures were employed to select the study sites and sample re- spondents. Primary data of households' capital assets and livelihood security status were produced from 285 survey households, agricultural experts, key informants, focus group discussants, and field observation through transect walks. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze quantitative data, whereas discussions and annotations were employed for analyzing qualitative data. The Sustainable Livelihoods Framework is used with modifications to schematize the study conceptually. The findings indicated that the study households pos- sessed combinations of livelihood resources differentially. Financial and natural capitals were found to be the most deficient and better-accessed capitals, respectively. The study also showed that lowland residents' access to assets has significant indications of livelihood security. Households' poor access to assets such as financial, information, and social capital demands raised attention of the concerned stakeholders and policy debates in the drought-prone rural setup. Hence, it has been concluded that the more assets are accessed, the stronger the capacity of the households to resist shocks, and better the livelihood security. Accordingly, enhancing people's access to multiple livelihood assets is suggested to sustainably secure livelihoods.
