Pollution of Groundwater in the Coastal Kwale District, Kenya
Sustainability of Water Resources under Increasing Uncertainty (Proceedings of the Rabat Symposium S1, April 1997). IAHS Publ. no. 240, 1997. 287 Pollution of groundwater in the coastal Kwale District, Kenya MWAKIO P. TOLE School of Environmental Studies, Moi University, PO Box 3900, Eldoret, Kenya Abstract Groundwater is a "last-resort" source of domestic water supply at the Kenyan coast because of the scarcity of surface water sources. NGOs, the Kenya Government, and international aid organizations have promoted the drilling of shallow boreholes from which water can be pumped using hand- operated pumps that are easy to maintain and repair. The shallow nature and the location of the boreholes in the midst of dense population settlements have made these boreholes susceptible to contamination from septic tanks and pit latrines. Thirteen percent of boreholes studied were contaminated with E. coli, compared to 30% of natural springs and 69% of open wells. Areas underlain by coral limestones show contamination from greater distances (up to 150 m away) compared to areas underlain by sandstones (up to 120 m). Overpumping of the groundwater has also resulted in encroachment of sea water into the coastal aquifers. The 200 ppm CI iso-line appears to be moving increasingly landwards. Sea level rise is expected to compound this problem. There is therefore an urgent need to formulate strategies to protect coastal aquifers from human and sea water contamination. INTRODUCTION The Government of Kenya and several nongovernmental organizations have long recog nized the need to make water more easily accessible to the people in order to improve sanitary conditions, as well as to reduce the time people spend searching for water, so that time can be freed for other productive economic and leisure activities. -

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.

Country Policy and Information Note Kenya: Female Genital Mutilation (FGM)
Country Policy and Information Note Kenya: Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) Version 1.0 June 2021 Preface Purpose This note provides country of origin information (COI) and analysis of COI for use by Home Office decision makers handling particular types of protection and human rights claims (as set out in the Introduction section). It is not intended to be an exhaustive survey of a particular subject or theme. It is split into two main sections: (1) analysis and assessment of COI and other evidence; and (2) COI. These are explained in more detail below. Assessment This section analyses the evidence relevant to this note – i.e. the COI section; refugee/human rights laws and policies; and applicable caselaw – by describing this and its inter-relationships, and provides an assessment of, in general, whether one or more of the following applies: x A person is reasonably likely to face a real risk of persecution or serious harm x The general humanitarian situation is so severe as to breach Article 15(b) of European Council Directive 2004/83/EC (the Qualification Directive) / Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights as transposed in paragraph 339C and 339CA(iii) of the Immigration Rules x The security situation presents a real risk to a civilian’s life or person such that it would breach Article 15(c) of the Qualification Directive as transposed in paragraph 339C and 339CA(iv) of the Immigration Rules x A person is able to obtain protection from the state (or quasi state bodies) x A person is reasonably able to relocate within a country or territory x A claim is likely to justify granting asylum, humanitarian protection or other form of leave, and x If a claim is refused, it is likely or unlikely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. -
