A comprehensive assessment of the population still displaced in Tana River will be completed next week. Across the country, the heavy long rains season from March to May has displaced a total of 291,171 people. Rainfall continues in the Highlands west of the Rift Valley (Kitale, Kericho, Nandi, Eldoret, Kakamega), the Lake Basin (Kisumu, Kisii, Busia), parts of Central Rift Valley (Nakuru, Nyahururu), the border areas of Northwestern Kenya (Lokichoggio, Lokitaung), and the Coastal strip (Mombasa, Mtwapa, Malindi, Msabaha, Kilifi, Lamu). Humanitarian access by road is constrained due to insecurity along the Turkana-West Pokot border and due to poor roads conditions in Isiolo, Samburu, Makueni, Tana River, Kitui, and Garissa.

Oyiengo, Nathan Amunga (1941–2015)
Image not found or type unknown Oyiengo, Nathan Amunga (1941–2015) SELINA OYIENGO Selina Oyiengo Nathan Amunga Oyiengo was a pastor and administrator in Kenya. Early Life Nathan Amunga Oyiengo was born to Jackton Oyiengo and Rispa Asami on December 23, 1941, in Ebulali Sub- location of Khwisero Location in the then Kakamega District (now Butere-Mumias District) in Western Kenya.1 His father, Jackton, was a prison officer while his mother was a housewife and a small scale businesswoman. His was a big family of one brother and five sisters. His formative years were spent with his parents and siblings in Kakamega, but when he began going to school, he went to live with his father in Nairobi. For little Nathan, life in the city was a new experience, and it was not long before he found himself in trouble.2 During an interview with his children Jack and Selina in August 2015, he narrated how one afternoon while roaming around aimlessly he found himself on the shoulders of a stranger being whisked away to some unknown destination. The man who had grabbed him was so fast that Nathan did not find his voice until a neighbor called out his name asking where he was going with the strange man. Sensing danger, the would-be kidnapper dropped his human cargo and hurriedly explained that he was only playing with the boy. After giving that brief and completely unconvincing explanation of his weird behavior, the man hurriedly walked away and melted into the gathering crowd. Thus, Nathan was saved from a kidnapping that would have completely altered the course of his life.3 After completing his studies at class four level, he proceeded to class five, six, and finally class seven where he sat for another exam and excelled.

Raiding the Future – Impacts of Violent Livestock Theft on Development and an Evaluation of Conflict Mitigation Approaches in Northwestern Kenya
Raiding the Future – Impacts of Violent Livestock Theft on Development and an Evaluation of Conflict Mitigation Approaches in Northwestern Kenya Dr. Janpeter Schilling Postdoctoral Research Fellow Department of Geography Colgate University Hamilton, NY Research Associate Research Group Climate Change and Security University of Hamburg Hamburg, Germany and Moses Hillary Akuno Postgraduate Student United Nations University Institute for Sustainability and Peace Tokyo, Japan Entry to the Case Studies in Peacebuilding Competition 2012 United States Institute of Peace Abstract Violent livestock theft has a long history in northwestern Kenya. Yet, in the recent past socio- economic developments in combination with more frequent and prolonged droughts and the availability of small arms have turned raiding into a more frequent, violent and destructive activity. In our case study we analyze the raiding between the Turkana and the Pokot of northwestern Kenya. We identify the key conflict actors and factors, and describe how the dynamics of raiding pose an obstacle to development in the region. In a second step we evaluate three approaches of conflict mitigation: peace meetings, disarmament, and the facilitation of livestock movement. Our analysis is based on extensive field research conducted in 2011. We interviewed the relevant conflict parties, including community members (raiders, pastoralists, elders, chiefs, women) as well as governmental and non-governmental representatives. Further, we draw on insights from the Security in Mobility (SIM) initiative and the European Instrument for Democracy & Human Rights (EIDHR) project. Our preliminary findings suggest that the increasingly violent raiding activities between the Turkana and Pokot create an omnipresent perception of insecurity in both communities. This results in inefficient utilization of resources (pasture, markets, infrastructure) which poses a significant obstacle for development.

Nixon Bwire, age 13, Tana River Climate change is already having a significant effect on children’s well-being in Kenya. The impact on children is likely to increase significantly over time; the extent of the impact depends on how quickly and successfully global greenhouse gas emissions are reduced as well as the ability to adapt to climate change. Climate models show the range of likely future impacts. The projections in this paper use the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the University of Oxford School of Geography and Environment interpretation of scenario A2 from the Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES). They used an ensemble of 15 models to arrive at the figures used here. Scenario A2 posits regionally oriented economic development and has slower and more fragmented economic and technological development than other scenarios.
