FOREWORD The Government of Kenya’s commitment to provide for children out of family care is demonstrated by the various policies and legislative frameworks that have been developed in the recent years. All children are equal rights-holders and deserve to be within families and community as enshrined in the Constitution of Kenya 2010 and the Children Act 2001. The development of this training manual recognizes the role of the family and the community in the care of our children while the accompanying user friendly handbook aims to boost the skills and knowledge of case workers and practioners in the child protection sector. All efforts need to be made to support families to continue to care for their children and, if this is not possible, to place a child in a family-based alternative care arrangement, such as; kinship care, foster care, guardianship, Kafaalah, Supported Independent Living (SIL), or adoption. -

REPUBLIC OF KENYA BARINGO COUNTY GOVERNMENT ANNUAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2016/17 County Treasury and Economic Planning AUGUST 2015 Annual Development Plan-2016-2017 i FOREWORD The 2016/2017 Baringo County Annual Development Plan (ADP) is formulated in the model of the current Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF). The Plan is prepared in line with the requirements of Section 126 of the Public Finance Management Act 2012, and in accordance with Article 220(2) of the Constitution. The Annual Plan contains the strategic priority development programmes and projects that will be implemented during the financial year 2016/2017. The Budget preparation process in the Medium Term, adopted the Programme Based Budgeting approach, where the sector working groups in the county formulated their respective sectors’ budget proposals, policies and programmes with clear outputs, outcomes as well as performance indicators which are related to the achievement of the programme objectives. This annual plan is therefore framed against a broad fiscal policy and reform measures underpinning the budget for the 2016/17 Financial Year, which outlines expenditure per priority programmes as well as allocation of resources to all sectors of the County economy. Significant proportion of the County’s budget shall be financed through National Government funding while it is expected that the County Government and development partners shall bridge the gaps. The preparation of the annual plan made reference to key County and National Government Policy documents particularly the Baringo County Integrated Development Plan (2013– 2017), the Second Medium Term Plan (2013 – 2017) and Vision 2030, the approved County Programme Based and Budget (PBB) 2015/2016. -
Slum Toponymy in Nairobi, Kenya a Case Study Analysis of Kibera
Urban and Regional Planning Review Vol. 4, 2017 | 21 Slum toponymy in Nairobi, Kenya A case study analysis of Kibera, Mathare and Mukuru Melissa Wangui WANJIRU*, Kosuke MATSUBARA** Abstract Urban informality is a reality in cities of the Global South, including Sub-Saharan Africa, which has over half the urban population living in informal settlements (slums). Taking the case of three informal settlements in Nairobi (Kibera, Mathare and Mukuru) this study aimed to show how names play an important role as urban landscape symbols. The study analyses names of sub-settlements (villages) within the slums, their meanings and the socio-political processes behind them based on critical toponymic analysis. Data was collected from archival sources, focus group discussion and interviews, newspaper articles and online geographical sources. A qualitative analysis was applied on the village names and the results presented through tabulations, excerpts and maps. Categorisation of village names was done based on the themes derived from the data. The results revealed that village names represent the issues that slum residents go through including: social injustices of evictions and demolitions, poverty, poor environmental conditions, ethnic groupings among others. Each of the three cases investigated revealed a unique toponymic theme. Kibera’s names reflected a resilient Nubian heritage as well as a diverse ethnic composition. Mathare settlements reflected political struggles with a dominance of political pioneers in the village toponymy. Mukuru on the other hand, being the newest settlement, reflected a more global toponymy-with five large villages in the settlement having foreign names. Ultimately, the study revealed that ethnic heritage and politics, socio-economic inequalities and land injustices as well as globalization are the main factors that influence the toponymy of slums in Nairobi. -

Value Chain Analysis of Grass Seeds in the Drylands of Baringo County
Lugusa et al. Pastoralism: Research, Policy and Practice (2016) 6:6 DOI 10.1186/s13570-016-0053-1 RESEARCH Open Access Value chain analysis of grass seeds in the drylands of Baringo County, Kenya: A producers’ perspective Klerkson Okomboli Lugusa1*, Oliver Vivian Wasonga1, Yazan Ahmed Elhadi1 and Todd Andrew Crane2 Abstract Pastoral households are increasingly practising fodder production in response to forage scarcity associated with land degradation, climate variability and change. Understanding the grass seed value chain is a prerequisite for developing sustainable fodder production and guiding appropriate out-scaling in the drylands. This study investigated the producers’ perspectives on grass seed production, marketing and challenges faced along the grass seed value chain in Marigat Sub- County of Baringo County, Kenya. The results show that the dominant actors were the bulking and processing agents who provided inputs and were a source of grass seed market to the producers. The producers preferred contractual agreements that allowed them to sell their grass seed to markets of their choice. As independent grass seed traders allowed for seed price negotiation, they were popular amongst the producers and thus handled the most volume of seeds marketed. Drought occurrence, inability of existing outlets to purchase grass seed at times, together with low prices offered for producers’ grass seed were found to be among the challenges facing the producers. There is need to strengthen the fodder groups with a possibility of registering them as cooperatives for the purpose of collective bargaining for better grass seed prices. Keywords: Land degradation, Fodder production, Pastoral households Introduction and export demand for livestock products, particularly Livestock plays an important role in many developing meat (Tolera et al. -
