Ngara (pastoral communities)

Ngara refers to pastoral communities, typically found in regions like East Africa, that depend on herding livestock such as cattle, goats, and sheep for their livelihood. These communities often live in arid or semi-arid environments, where nomadic or semi-nomadic lifestyles allow them to move their herds in search of pasture and water. Their culture is closely tied to cattle, which serve as a source of food, wealth, and social status. Ngara communities traditionally prioritize mobility to adapt to seasonal changes and environmental challenges, ensuring the sustainability of their pastoral way of life.
