Preferred term

curriculum for nomadic populations in the Middle East  

Definition

  • Nomadic populations are commonly defined as peoples who move frequently, generally in support of livestock herding, yet these communities may in fact spend considerable periods (months or even years at times) in a single location. The terms nomads, pastoralists, and (in the case of the Middle East and parts of North Africa) Bedouin (in a general sense or to refer to specific ethnic or tribal affiliation) are sometimes used interchangeably.
