  • CONFLICT SNAPSHOT Kenya December 2020 Introduction
    Funded by the European Union CONFLICT SNAPSHOT Kenya December 2020 Introduction Kenya is a large culturally and ethnic diverse country, with over 40 different ethnic groups and numerous superimposed conflicts. Ethnic tensions and clashes coupled with political instability that manifests during the election period have been on the rise in the recent past. Recurrent drought that pushes herders into farmlands in search of pasture has led to violent clashes between herders and farmers in Garissa and Tana River counties. Ethnic group affiliation and highly centralised ethnopolitics are the primary identity of many Kenyans, especially during periods of turmoil. According to the Conflict Analysis of Kenya report, Kenyan Muslims have been marginalised within the Kenyan state and feel like they are treated as second-rate citizens. Data collection and analysis Data for the conflict snapshot COVID-19 series in Kenya was airoi gathered from 21-25 September in the following target zones: arissa This coincided with a period of relative calm in terms of ana iver COVID-19 caseloads and containment measures in Kenya, Kilifi as it fell in between the first and second wave of outbreaks omasa and many people believed there would soon be a return to normalcy. This perception may have influenced certain survey wale responses and we expect to see changes in this in the next round of snapshot reports. This report was prepared by the Search for Common Ground Kenya team, with support from Search’s COVID-19 Response Programming Team and Institutional Learning Team.

  • Youth, Peace and Security in Kenya by Olawale Ismail
    Youth, peace and Security in Kenya by Olawale Ismail Youth, Peace and Security in Kenya Revised Draft 12/12/2017 1 Youth, peace and Security in Kenya by Olawale Ismail 1. Introduction Kenya underscores the spirit and letter of UNSC Resolution 2250 in many ways. Over the last decade, Kenya’s political-security volatility has been well documented by extant research and media reports. Incidence of political and election-related violence, radicalization and violent extremism, inter-ethnic and inter-communal clashes, pastoralist violence, and state-led violence dot Kenya’s peace and security landscape in the last 10 years. While most of these peace and security issues predate the last decade, their scale, spread, intensity and impacts are unprecedented. As in similar contexts, much of research and policy attention have focused mostly on the role of young women and men largely as victims and perpetrators of violence, respectively. However, emerging pointers, as encapsulated in UNSCR 2250, signpost the crucial role and contribution of young people to preventing violence, responding to violence and rebuilding peace, and informed contributions to the security and stability of communities, countries and world at large. Kenya is no different; female and male youth on their own and/or in collaboration with other stakeholders, actively contributes to conflict prevention, reconciliation and peacebuilding in Kenya. Accordingly, this report presents an overview of the contemporary peace and security challenges in Kenya, and the responses of young people in the form of their roles and contributions to peacebuilding efforts. This case-study was commissioned by UNFPA and PBSO for the Progress Study on YPS requested by SCR 2250, with funding support from SIDA.
