dc.description.abstractPastoralist systems are heavily dependent on livestock for survival but this has been incessantly threatened by the impact of climate change. in this, regards , there is a need for alternative strategy to socio-economic development of pastoralist women, which can be actualized through education and skill acquisition in order to cope with socio-economic shocks. Emphasis on the pastoralist women's need to diversify their income into non- pastoralist ventures could serve as a means of economic empowerment. this study therefore sought to identify the perception of pastoralist women about skill acquisition, the type of alternative skills that can be acquired for income generation, source of information and the factors limiting skill acquisition for sustainable development of the pastoralist system. the study was carried out in Kwara State using a questionnaire and interview schedule to elicit information from 120 respondents. Pearson product Moment Correlation was used in testing the hypothesis. the result showed that the majority of the pastoralist women engage in livestock-related economic activities but they have a strong i inclination to acquire education and skill in non-pastoralist enterprises. thus the establishment of skill acquisition centers by government for pastoralist women is highly recommended. this promote economic empowerment and sustainable agricultural development.
