Drought resilience is a critical challenge for pastoral communities in the Horn of Africa, including Tanzania. A participatory approach involving interviews with community leaders and focus group discussions was employed to gather insights on existing water management practices. Community members reported a significant preference for the construction of small-scale boreholes (75%) over larger dams (25%). The identified strategies, which include the promotion of borehole construction and community-based water resource management, are likely to improve drought resilience in pastoral areas. Communities should be supported to establish and manage their own small-scale water sources effectively. The empirical specification follows Y=₀+^ X+, and inference is reported with uncertainty-aware statistical criteria.
