  • Description: AbstractThere is a lack of nomadic youth participation in education in Itang District. Thus, the aim of this study was to examine the factors that influence pastoral youth participation in formal education in the study area. This study used a multi-stage sampling technique to choose the participants. Similarly, the primary data was collected through focus group discussions and household interview schedules. Meanwhile, this study applied descriptive data (frequency, percentage, and chi-square), a binary logistic regression model, and thematic analysis methods. The result indicated that 40.8%, 37.6%, and 21.6% of youth have participated in mobile, multi-grade, and basic education, respectively, in the study area. In the same way, the result showed that about 44.8% of respondents have participated in formal education in the study area. Moreover, the binary logit model found that perceptions of education, mobility, parent occupation, parent education, livestock holding size, distance to school, and insecurity significantly influenced participation in education. As a result, many factors influenced the participation of nomadic youth in formal education. Therefore, the concerned organizations should provide capacity-building training, boarding schools, and school feeding programs to improve pastoral youth participation in formal education.
