  • Community Perceptions and Response to Flood Risks in Nyando District, Western Kenya
    Community perceptions and response to flood risks in Nyando District, Western Kenya Hellen Nyakundi Liaison O#cer, Food Link Nairobi, Kenya [email protected] Stephen Mogere Development Evaluation Expert Nairobi, Kenya [email protected] Isaac Mwanzo Kenyatta University Nairobi, Kenya [email protected] Andre Yitambe Department of Public Health, Kenyatta University Nairobi, Kenya [email protected] ABSTRACT In Kenya, the ability of local people to resist the impact of disasters has not been given adequate attention. A descriptive cross sectional study sought to investigate community perceptions and responses to $ood risks in low and high risk areas of the Nyando District, Western Kenya. A total of 528 households, six government o#cials and %ve project managers of Community Based Organizations (CBOs) and Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) were interviewed. Additionally, seven Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) involving three women, two male and two teacher groups were conducted. Data were analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Program. &e Chi-square test was used to de- termine associations and di'erences between variables. In the study, 83% of the respondents were aware of Traditional Flood Knowledge (TFK) and 80% acknowledged its use. Perception of the risk is in$uenced by several variables, most notably past experience of major $oods and having survived them. Residents in the high risk areas had signi%cantly higher levels of awareness and use of traditional $ood knowledge. &ey were more aware of the nature of the $ood related health risks they were exposed to and appeared better prepared for future $ood risk.

  • Nyando District Kisumu Hub
    Nyando District Kisumu Hub Post-Floods Needs Assessment Report 13-16th January 2013 _________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Kenya meteorological department predictions indicated that the country was expected to experience enhanced rainfall for the period October-December2012, during the short rains with most parts of Kenya experiencing above normal rainfall while most parts of the Rift valley, Nairobi and parts of North Eastern counties experiencing slightly above normal rainfall. West Kenya catchment areas experienced heavy rains between 20th to 28th December 2012, in the upstream areas of the Rift valley-Nandi hills, which were slightly above normal, causing Rivers Nyando, Awach, and Sondu to break their banks in the down stream Kisumu County. This caused flooding with displacement and destruction of property in Nyando, Nyakach and Rachuonyo North Districts from 29th December 2012. At the time of this assessment, the rains have receded and most of the flooding waters are drying up in the affected areas. However, the flooding risk is still at alert level. BACKGROUND ON THE LOCATION: Nyando District is a fairly new district, which broke away from Kisumu District in Nyanza Province in 1998. It is named after the Nyando River, which flows from the Nandi Hills in the Rift Valley Province and empties its waters into Lake Victoria. Nyando district is in Kisumu County, and borders Nyakach, Muhoroni, Rachuonyo and Kisumu East Districts and the Rift Valley Province. The District capital is the town of Awasi, located 30 kilometers east of Kisumu City, the county capital of Kisumu County. The District is affected by perennial floods, usually twice in a year during the short and long rains seasons.
