| dc.description.abstract | This paper is designed to show how a large group of people whose livelihood is threatened can respond to save themselves. But they must know what the threat is, what the remedy is, and be given adequate leadership and technical guidance to apply the remedy. In brief, the people of the Hbulu District (now Mbulu and Hanang) were increasing beyond the capacity of their country to carry them. This was early appreciated Tjy the Government, as when in 1930 the Bagshawe land Commission recommended that the Oldeani-Karatu- Mbulumbulu area be reserved for the expansion of the overcrowded and rapidly increasing Iraqw. The constraints against expansion were the usual lack of infrastructure in the expansion areas - roads, water supply and social services - but the greatest constraint was the tsetse fly. For all the people of the area are cattle people, Iraqw, Gorowa, Hbugwe and Barabaig (Tatog):the first three are settled cultivators with strongly cattle oriented culture whilst the last named are basically Pastoralists wherry circumstances have forced to practice a limited amount of arable agriculture. | en_US |
