The reserve has beautiful scenery, prolific birdlife and camping site in the bush beside Lake Kamnarok.

  • Kajiado County 2020 Short Rains Food and Nutrition Security Assessment Report
    KAJIADO COUNTY 2020 SHORT RAINS FOOD AND NUTRITION SECURITY ASSESSMENT REPORT February 2021 A Joint Report by Kenya Food Security Steering Group (KFSSG) and Kajiado County Steering Group (CSG) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The 2020 Short Rains food security assessment was carried out by the county technical team with technical support from the Kenya Food Security Steering Group (KFSSG). The overall objective of the assessment was to objectively and with evidence provide food security situation in the county in a transparent manner following the 2020 Short Rains taking into account the cumulative effect of the previous seasons. The assessment provides recommendations for possible response options based on the situation analysis upon building consensus. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches were used during assessment including review of the existing data provided through checklists or otherwise and triangulating with field observations as well as both community and key informants interviews. Depressed rainfall was the key driver of food security in the county which resulted in below normal regeneration of pasture, recharge of water sources and crops yields. The COVID-19 epidemic negatively affected patterns of food supply and access as well as health- seeking behaviour in the county. Livestock diseases were also an important food security driver in the county. Since May 2020, livestock prices were sustained above the Long Term Average due to the reduced supply to the markets. Following the off-season rains in early January 2021, domestic water consumption has now normalized. Nutrition status of under-fives was better for the entire year as evidenced by the below long term average risk of malnutrition of 6.8 percent.

  • Addressing Local Needs with Practical Information
    Addressing Local Needs with practical information eaconess Phillip is known widely in DKing’ong’o village as a church social worker with a heart for everyone. She is also a community educator and most new ideas that reach women in this small village in the heart of Mitaboni Division, Eastern Province have a lot to do with her efforts. In February 2005 when AfriAfya began working with a group of Community based organisations (CBOs) in Mitaboni, Philip and several other women were trained as info-mediaries. Their work was to identify and respond to information needs of their community members particularly women. Four years of working with community champions like Philip has yielded positive results by providing practical information that meets local needs. Providing Knowledge for better livelihoods The treeless and dry landscape of Mitaboni n hour of travel, part of it on a bumpy dusty earth road brings you to Mitaboni village, about 70 kms east of Nairobi. The Aregion is semi-arid with scanty vegetation and harsh weather with limited livelihood opportunities especially for the women and youth. It is in this community that AfriAfya, working with a group of CBO’s affilitated to the Mitaboni African Brotherhood Church (ABC), launched a community resource center in February 2005. Getting the information out Engaging with the Mitaboni community offered AfriAfya the unique opportunity of moving information ‘beyond the computer’, that is of relevance and use to local communities. AfriAfya quickly realised that computers, though important, are not enough by themselves. In most rural settings, face to face contact over time works better in passing on knowledge and learning.
