CDCCENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROLKenya AND PREVENTION • KENYA Annual Report 2015 iii CDC Kenya 2015 Annual Report Message from the Director Colleagues and Friends, “Preventing epidemics through our global health security agenda. Making sure that we are not just reacting to something like the Ebola crisis, but that we are systematically putting in place the kinds of global networks and responses that can help countries not only help their own people, but also make sure that … our own people are not put in harm’s way.” (President Obama, during his remarks to the Chief of Missions Conference at the State Department, March 14, 2016.) These comments by President Obama well describe the mission of CDC’s global work and remind us of the President’s historic visit to Kenya in July 2015. I am pleased to share this short report summarizing CDC Kenya’s activities during 2015, the year the world was to have delivered on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). In addition to intense work to initiate activities under the Global Health Security Agenda, CDC Kenya continued productive research on malaria, HIV, tuberculosis, diarrhea, pneumonia, zoonotic diseases and neglected tropical diseases. Our programs supporting the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) focused on working towards the 90:90:90 vision (identify 90% of people living with HIV; ensure 90% of them access antiretroviral therapy; and ensure 90% of those on treatment are virally suppressed) first defined by UNAIDS, and measuring impact.

  • Challenges in the Decentralization of Recruitment and Selection of Teachers in Kenyan Secondary Schools: a Case of Gucha District
    Journal of Education and Practice www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1735 (Paper) ISSN 2222-288X (Online) Vol.8, No.15, 2017 Challenges in the Decentralization of Recruitment and Selection of Teachers in Kenyan Secondary Schools: A Case of Gucha District Samba Serah Moraa* Koske Luciana Chepkoech Mulongo Leonard Simiyu School of Human Resource Development, Moi University, PO box 3900-30100, Eldoret, Kenya Abstract Decentralization of teacher recruitment and selection in Kenya was as a result of World Bank/IMF policies, which support projects that guarantee direct net economic returns by productivity and indirect returns on externalities. The approach has been used as a way of improving service delivery. This strategy that has been successful elsewhere may not necessarily be appropriate for Kenya. Any meaningful interventions in Kenya ought to be based on research data from within the countries education system. This paper is based on a research that was conducted in Gucha district in the year 2010. The study sought to assess decentralized approach process and examined the challenges faced in the application of the approach in secondary teacher recruitment and selection. Arising from the descriptive survey research analysis and interpretation is that despite the crucial role decentralized approach play in Secondary teacher recruitment and selection, there are still some negative aspects that hinder the applicability and implementation of the approach. It was noted that, the approach has led to better staffing in rural remote schools, equity and equality in employment leading to community development and high rate of teacher trainee absorption in the employment sector. However, very little attention is paid to competence of the BOG/PTA, adequate funds, corruption, political interference and teacher performance that challenge the efficiency and effectiveness of the approach.

  • Peri-Urban Development, Livelihood Change and Household Income: a Case Study of Peri-Urban Nyahururu, Kenya
    Journal of Agricultural Extension and Rural Development Vol. 2 (5) pp. 73-83, June, 2010 Available online http:// academicjournals.org/JAERD ISSN- 2141 -2154 ©2010 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Peri-urban development, livelihood change and household income: A case study of peri-urban Nyahururu, Kenya Nicodemus Mandere Mandere1,2*, Barry Ness1 and Stefan Anderberg1 1 Centre for Sustainability Studies (LUCSUS), Lund University P.O. Box 170, SE-221 00, Lund Sweden. 2Department of Physical Geography and Ecosystems Analysis, Lund University, Sweden. Accepted 21 May, 2010 Peri-urban development has attracted increased attention in recent years particularly due to conflict/competition between new (urban) and traditional (rural) land uses as a result of peri-urban expansion. Much of the research in peri-urban development is concentrated in peri-urban concepts and definitions, environmental impacts and also impact on agriculture. Little attention is put in the assessment of the peri-urban development on household livelihood and income. This study was therefore conducted with the objective of assessing the impact of the peri-urban development dynamics to household income using the case study of peri-urban Nyahururu, Kenya. The analysis shows a decline in full time farming households from 90% in the 1960s to 49%; an indication of the declining economic significance of agriculture. The decline in significance of agriculture was mainly due to rapidly shrinking household agricultural land as well as low and fluctuating agricultural output prices which reduced the profitability from agricultural production. The decrease in agricultural land was due to the sale of land for residence/business premises and also land bequests to children.

  • Akiwumi.Rift Valley.Pdf
    CHAPTER ONE TRIBAL CLASHES IN THE RIFT VALLEY PROVINCE Tribal clashes in the Rift Valley Province started on 29th October, 1991, at a farm known as Miteitei, situated in the heart of Tinderet Division, in Nandi District, pitting the Nandi, a Kalenjin tribe, against the Kikuyu, the Kamba, the Luhya, the Kisii, and the Luo. The clashes quickly spread to other farms in the area, among them, Owiro, farm which was wholly occupied by the Luo; and into Kipkelion Division of Kericho District, which had a multi-ethnic composition of people, among them the Kalenjin, the Kisii and the Kikuyu. Later in early 1992, the clashes spread to Molo, Olenguruone, Londiani, and other parts of Kericho, Trans Nzoia, Uasin Gishu and many other parts of the Rift Valley Province. In 1993, the clashes spread to Enoosupukia, Naivasha and parts of Narok, and the Trans Mara Districts which together then formed the greater Narok before the Trans Mara District was hived out of it, and to Gucha District in Nyanza Province. In these areas, the Kipsigis and the Maasai, were pitted against the Kikuyu, the Kisii, the Kamba and the Luhya, among other tribes. The clashes revived in Laikipia and Njoro in 1998, pitting the Samburu and the Pokot against the Kikuyu in Laikipia, and the Kalenjin mainly against the Kikuyu in Njoro. In each clash area, non-Kalenjin or non-Maasai, as the case may be, were suddenly attacked, their houses set on fire, their properties looted and in certain instances, some of them were either killed or severely injured with traditional weapons like bows and arrows, spears, pangas, swords and clubs.
