  • Pollution of Groundwater in the Coastal Kwale District, Kenya
    Sustainability of Water Resources under Increasing Uncertainty (Proceedings of the Rabat Symposium S1, April 1997). IAHS Publ. no. 240, 1997. 287 Pollution of groundwater in the coastal Kwale District, Kenya MWAKIO P. TOLE School of Environmental Studies, Moi University, PO Box 3900, Eldoret, Kenya Abstract Groundwater is a "last-resort" source of domestic water supply at the Kenyan coast because of the scarcity of surface water sources. NGOs, the Kenya Government, and international aid organizations have promoted the drilling of shallow boreholes from which water can be pumped using hand- operated pumps that are easy to maintain and repair. The shallow nature and the location of the boreholes in the midst of dense population settlements have made these boreholes susceptible to contamination from septic tanks and pit latrines. Thirteen percent of boreholes studied were contaminated with E. coli, compared to 30% of natural springs and 69% of open wells. Areas underlain by coral limestones show contamination from greater distances (up to 150 m away) compared to areas underlain by sandstones (up to 120 m). Overpumping of the groundwater has also resulted in encroachment of sea water into the coastal aquifers. The 200 ppm CI iso-line appears to be moving increasingly landwards. Sea level rise is expected to compound this problem. There is therefore an urgent need to formulate strategies to protect coastal aquifers from human and sea water contamination. INTRODUCTION The Government of Kenya and several nongovernmental organizations have long recog­ nized the need to make water more easily accessible to the people in order to improve sanitary conditions, as well as to reduce the time people spend searching for water, so that time can be freed for other productive economic and leisure activities.

  • An Overview of Mental Health Care System in Kilifi, Kenya
    Bitta et al. Int J Ment Health Syst (2017) 11:28 DOI 10.1186/s13033-017-0135-5 International Journal of Mental Health Systems RESEARCH Open Access An overview of mental health care system in Kilif, Kenya: results from an initial assessment using the World Health Organization’s Assessment Instrument for Mental Health Systems Mary A. Bitta1*, Symon M. Kariuki1, Eddie Chengo2 and Charles R. J. C. Newton1,3 Abstract Background: Little is known about the state of mental health systems in Kenya. In 2010, Kenya promulgated a new constitution, which devolved national government and the national health system to 47 counties including Kilif County. There is need to provide evidence from mental health systems research to identify priority areas in Kilif’s men- tal health system for informing county health sector decision making. We conducted an initial assessment of state of mental health systems in Kilif County and documented resources, policy and legislation and spectrum of mental, neurological and substance use disorders. Methods: This was a pilot study that used the brief version of the World Health Organization’s Assessment Instru- ment for Mental Health Systems Version 2.2 to collect data. Data collection was based on the year 2014. Results: Kilif county has two public psychiatric outpatient units that are part of general hospitals. There is no stan- dalone mental hospital in Kilif. There are no inpatients or community based facilities for people with mental health problems. Although the psychiatric facilities in Kilif have an essential drugs list, supply of drugs is erratic with frequent shortages. There is no psychiatrist or psychologist in Kilif with only two psychiatric nurses for a population of approxi- mately 1.2 million people.

  • Sediment Dynamics and Improvised Control Technologies in the Athi River Drainage Basin, Kenya
    Sediment Dynamics in Changing Environments (Proceedings of a symposium held 485 in Christchurch, New Zealand, December 2008). IAHS Publ. 325, 2008. Sediment dynamics and improvised control technologies in the Athi River drainage basin, Kenya SHADRACK MULEI KITHIIA Postgraduate Programme in Hydrology, Department of Geography and Environmental Studies, University of Nairobi, PO Box 30197, 00100 GPO, Nairobi, Kenya [email protected] Abstract In Kenya, the changing of land-use systems from the more traditional systems of the 1960s to the present mechanized status, contributes enormous amounts of sediments due to water inundations. The Athi River drains areas that are subject to intense agricultural, industrial, commercial and population settlement activities. These activities contribute immensely to the processes of soil erosion and sediment transport, a phenomenon more pronounced in the middle and lower reaches of the river where the soils are much more fragile and the river tributaries are seasonal in nature. Total Suspended Sediments (TSS) equivalent to sediment fluxes of 13 457, 131 089 and 2 057 487 t year-1 were recorded in the headwater areas, middle and lower reaches of the river, respectively. These varying trends in sediment transport and amount are mainly due to the chemical composition of the soil coupled with the land-soil conservation measures already in practice, and which started in the 1930s and reached their peak in the early 1980s. This paper examines trends in soil erosion and sediment transport dynamics progressively downstream. The land-use activities and soil conservation, control and management technologies, which focus on minimizing the impacts of overland flow, are examined to assess the economic and environmental sustainability of these areas, communal societal benefits and the country in general.

  • The Children and Youth Empowerment Centre (CYEC), Nyeri
    The Children and Youth Empowerment Centre (CYEC), Nyeri. The Centre is located approximately 175 kilometers north of Nairobi on the outskirts of Nyeri town, the administrative headquarters of both Nyeri East District and Kenya’s Central Province. CYEC is an initiative of the national program for street dwelling persons and is intended to play a central role in the innovation of holistic and sustainable solutions for the population of street dwelling young people in Kenya. The Pennsylvania State University has been involved with the CYEC since 2009. Students from both the Berks and Main campuses of Penn State have focused on areas including bio-medical engineering, architectural engineering, teaching/literacy, and agriculture to help the CYEC. At the Center we have participated in constructing a green house, a drip irrigation center, creating books for the children, conducting various types of research, and much more. In 2010 the CYEC asked if Penn State would focus on the creation of an Eco-Village in Lamuria, a sustainable and eco-friendly village where the street children could go once they have reached adulthood to work and participate in a community environment and economy. Under the direction of Janelle Larson and Sjoerd Duiker, the 497C Agricultural Systems in East Africa class was The undeveloped Eco-Village site created at the Main campus. Our class consisted of only (2010) six students (five of whom were able to travel to Kenya) and met once every other Friday for two hours. This specific course focused on conducting research on agricultural production in semi-arid regions of east Africa, culminating with an opportunity for application through on-site assessment work in Kenya.
