  • Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting in Kenya- Examining Progress Or Lack of Progress at National and Subnational Levels
    Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting in Kenya- Examining Progress or Lack of Progress at National and Subnational Levels Robert P Ndugwa PhD1 and Dr Edward Addai2 1Global Urban Observatory, Research and Capacity Development Branch, United Nations Human Settlements Programme, Nairobi, Kenya. 2UNICEF ESARO, Nairobi, Kenya Abstract Female genital mutilation or cutting (FGM/C) is widely outlawed globally, but continues to be practiced in selected communities across the globe. In Kenya, this practice is common among selected communities, and recent national trends show that the prevalence of the practice is declining. Using Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys data collected in 2011 from 6 counties from the Western region of Kenya, we demonstrate that while national figures conspire to show that the prevalence of FGM has declined but among certain communities the practice remains almost universal. Underlying factors favouring the continuation of the practice within these communities are discussed, including examining the role of cultural traditions, tribe and religion. The study demonstrates the value of collecting data at lower levels, and highlights the need to step up the responses and engagement of communities who continue practicing FGM even after outlawing this practice. Introduction Female genital mutilation or cutting (FGM/C) has continued to dominate the discourse in women’s health and empowerment as well as remaining a dominate subject for human rights violations today. Female genital mutilation or cutting (FGM/C) is a procedure or practice where the parts of the female genitals are removed, and it is practiced in over twenty countries within sub-Saharan Africa. FGM/C practice has been widely documented to interfere with the natural functioning of the body, in addition to causing many short-term and long-term health and psychological consequences (Behrendt et al.

  • CHOLERA COUNTRY PROFILE: KENYA Last Update: 29 April 2010
    WO RLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION Global Task Force on Cholera Control CHOLERA COUNTRY PROFILE: KENYA Last update: 29 April 2010 General Country Information: The Republic of Kenya is located in eastern Africa, and borders Ethiopia, Somalia, Tanzania, Uganda and Sudan with an east coast along the Indian Ocean. Kenya is divided into eight provinces: Central, Coast, Eastern, North Eastern, Nyanza, Rift Valley and Western and Nairobi. The provinces are further subdivided into 69 districts. Nairobi, the capital, is the largest city of Kenya. In 1885, Kenya was made a German protectorate over the Sultan of Zanzibar and coastal areas were progressively taken over by British establishments especially in the costal areas. Hostilities between German military forces and British troops (supported by Indian Army troops) were to end in 1918 as the Armistice of the first World War was signed. Kenya gained its independence from Great Britain in December 1963 when a government was formed by Jomo Kenyatta head of the KANU party (Kenya National African Union). Kenya's economy is highly dependant on tourism and Nairobi is the primary communication and financial hub of East Africa. It enjoys the region's best transportation linkages, communications infrastructure, and trained personnel. Many foreign firms maintain regional branches or representative offices in the city. Since December 2007, following the national elections, Kenya has been affected by political turmoil and violent rampages in several parts of the country leading to economic and humanitarian crisis. Kenya's Human Development Index is 147 over 182. The major cause of mortality and morbidity is malaria. Malnutrition rates are high (around 50'000 malnourished children and women in 27 affected districts in 2006).

The leadership of Betina Gollander-Jensen at the Royal Danish Embassy in Nairobi, Siv Cathrine Moe at the Royal Norwegian Embassy and Peter Kusimba, Kenya’s Commissioner for Refugee Affairs, is especially acknowledged. The team members would also like to recognise the logistical support provided by the agencies working in and around Dadaab, particularly the Department of Refugee Affairs, the Kenya Red Cross Society, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the Norwegian Refugee Council and, above all, the Danish Refugee Council. Finally, the generous participation of leaders and ordinary residents from Fafi, Lagdera and Wajir South in individual interviews and group discussions is the foundation on which the study findings rest, and without their inputs the work would simply not have been possible.

  • I. General Overview II. Humanitarian Situation
    UNITED NATIONS HUMANITARIAN UPDATE vol. 7 February 23-27, 2008 Office of the United Nations Humanitarian Coordinator in Kenya HIGHLIGHTS • African Union mediator suspends talks with mediation teams; negotiations continue with principles from both parties. • Security situation generally calm but localized incidents of violence are reported • UNHCR to begin profiling IDP groups • Nutritional screening of all IDP camps a high priority • Humanitarian agencies begin to prepare IDP camps for the rainy season The information contained in this report has been compiled by OCHA from information received from the field, from national and international humanitarian partners and from other official sources. It does not represent a position from the United Nations. I. General Overview African Union mediator Kofi Annan suspended talks on Tuesday to end Kenya’s political crisis, saying the top leadership of the Party of National Unity and the Orange Democratic Movement must now negotiate directly to break the present lack of progress. Annan, representing Africa’s foremost political body, the African Union, has been trying to broker a peace deal to reconcile the nation over the disputed results of December’s presidential election. The disputed results, buttressed by mutual accusations of cheating, resulted in violence in which some 1,000 people died and an estimated 500,000 displaced. There is concern that the suspended talks, in conjunction with possible IDP fatigue, could trigger new movements or place new burdens on humanitarian operations. While some of the displaced persons have moved to ethnically homogeneous areas, and others have found refuge with host families in areas they consider safe, humanitarian aid personnel say that hundreds of thousands remain in IDP camps awaiting the outcome of the political talks before deciding on either returning to their original areas or relocating.

  • Dadaab Returnee Conflict Assessment August 2017
    DADAAB RETURNEE CONFLICT ASSESSMENT AUGUST 2017 PREPARED FOR DANISH DEMINING GROUP (DDG) BY KEN MENKHAUS Dadaab Returnee Conflict Assessment | i Foreword and Acknowledgements This conflict assessment was implemented as part of the UK Department for International Development (DFID) funded and Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) and Danish Refugee Council (DRC) implemented project: ‘Promoting Durable Solutions through Integrated Return, Reintegration and Resilience Support to Somali Displacement affected Populations’. The project aims to support conditions conducive for safe and dignified return and sustainable reintegration of Somali refugees. The project was implemented between October 2016 and June 2017. The Conflict Assessment was implemented by the Danish Demining Group (DDG), under the supervision of Mads Frilander. The principal investigator and author of the study is Ken Menkhaus, and he alone is responsible for any errors or misinterpretations in the report. He and Ismahan Adawe formed the research team that conducted fieldwork for this study in Mogadishu, Kismayo, Baidoa, and Nairobi in December 2016 and January 2017. The analysis combines existing studies and reports collected in a literature review with over 60 field interviews, as well as a survey carried out in Kismayo. The interviews were semi-structured in format, some held with key informants and others with focus groups of men and women representing host communities, internally displaced persons (IDPs), and returnees. The survey was carried out by the company Researchcare Africa. The research was conducted in challenging security and political conditions, and the research team is deeply indebted to many individuals and organisations who provided essential help to overcome those obstacles. We are also very grateful to the hundreds of Somali stakeholders and international aid officials who volunteered their time to meet with the research team and discuss these issues.
