  • 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).
