  • Kenya's Somali North East: Devolution and Security
    Kenya’s Somali North East: Devolution and Security Crisis Group Africa Briefing N°114 Nairobi/Brussels, 17 November 2015 I. Overview Devolved government in Kenya’s newly formed north-eastern counties, designed to address decades of political marginalisation and underdevelopment, has been un- dermined by dominant clans monopolising power and growing corruption. Violent clan competition and antipathy between elected county elites and the remaining national administrative structures have allowed the violently extremist Al-Shabaab movement to expand and operate with relative impunity across large areas of the North East. Its attacks exposed security-service disarray and caused a sharp reversal of already stretched state services in this vast and poor region that shares a porous 680km border with Somalia. To end the violence and capitalise on devolution’s potential, county elites must be more inclusive of minorities, cooperate across local boundaries for inter-county peace and recognise the continued role for neutral nation- al institutions. National government should recognise where pragmatism can trump convention and back new security approaches that combine national and county responses. Rampant criminality, inter-clan animosities and small-arms proliferation stretch policing and render highly insecure the sprawling refugee camps that host more than 350,000 Somali nationals fleeing the conflict in their country. This is compounded by Al-Shabaab infiltration, radicalisation and recruitment – especially in a border- land region where the

APRIL 4-6, 2018 Introduction The Horn of Africa (HOA) Technical Advisory Group (TAG) meetings noted that the risk of significant WPV outbreaks due to evidence of undetected circulation of WPV among the large number of High-Risk Mobile Populations (HRMP) in the HOA region. The TAG stressed the need for active cross-border health coordinations initiatives as a compelling strategy for polio eradication in the region. The objective of the cross-border coordination meetings is to coordinate efforts to strengthen surveillance, routine immunization, and supplemental immunization activities for polio eradication among bordering areas. Specifically, it aims to improve information sharing between countries on polio eradication, identifying and addressing surveillance and immunity gaps in HRMP along the borders, and planning for synchronized supplementary immunization activities along the borders. This report details April 4-6, 2018 meeting in Wajir county (Kenya). The meeting hosted representation from Kenya National MOH, Kenya border Counties MoH officials (Wajir,Turkana and Garissa), Jubaland State (Somalia), WHO representatives (Kenya & Somalia), UNICEF- Kenya, WHO Horn of Africa office, and CORE GROUP Polio Project (CGPP)-HOA Secretariat and CGPP-HOAS partners (American Refugee Committee(ARC), International Rescue Committee (IRC), World Visio- Kenya and Somali Aid. Objectives of the meeting 1. Review on the status of disease surveillance specifically AFP surveillance/VPDs activities. 2. Institutionalize sharing of information modalities between partners in international border regions 3. Discuss the implementation of the joint action plan for cross border collaborations to strengthen cross border disease AFP surveillance & other diseases, e.g.

  • Isolation of Tick and Mosquito-Borne Arboviruses from Ticks Sampled from Livestock and Wild Animal Hosts in Ijara District, Kenya
    VECTOR-BORNE AND ZOONOTIC DISEASES Volume 13, Number X, 2013 ORIGINAL ARTICLE ª Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. DOI: 10.1089/vbz.2012.1190 Isolation of Tick and Mosquito-Borne Arboviruses from Ticks Sampled from Livestock and Wild Animal Hosts in Ijara District, Kenya Olivia Wesula Lwande,1,2 Joel Lutomiah,3 Vincent Obanda,4 Francis Gakuya,4 James Mutisya,3 Francis Mulwa,1 George Michuki,5 Edith Chepkorir,1 Anne Fischer,6 Marietjie Venter,2 and Rosemary Sang1,3 Abstract Tick-borne viruses infect humans through the bite of infected ticks during opportunistic feeding or through crushing of ticks by hand and, in some instances, through contact with infected viremic animals. The Ijara District, an arid to semiarid region in northern Kenya, is home to a pastoralist community for whom livestock keeping is a way of life. Part of the Ijara District lies within the boundaries of a Kenya Wildlife Service–protected conservation area. Arbovirus activity among mosquitoes, animals, and humans is reported in the region, mainly because prevailing conditions necessitate that people continuously move their animals in search of pasture, bringing them in contact with ongoing arbovirus transmission cycles. To identify the tick-borne viruses circulating among these communities, we analyzed ticks sampled from diverse animal hosts. A total of 10,488 ticks were sampled from both wildlife and livestock hosts and processed in 1520 pools of up to eight ticks per pool. The sampled ticks were classified to species, processed for virus screening by cell culture using Vero cells and RT-PCR (in the case of Hyalomma species), followed by amplicon sequencing.

  • Hydrogeological Assessment of the Merti Aquifer, Kenya
    Hydrogeological Assessment of the Merti Aquifer, Kenya Technical report no 1 of ARIGA. Assessing Risks of Investment in Groundwater Development in Sub-Saharan Africa Summary The Government of Kenya has approached the Dutch investment company ORIO to support the investment in infrastructure for the Habaswein-Wajir Water Supply project. The project proposes to draw water from the Merti Aquifer to supply the city of Wajir with drinking water, through a 120 km pipeline. The proposed well-field is located near Habaswein and will be used for urban water supply for Habaswein as well. This documents reports the outcomes of a hydrogeological assessment that determines the risk of groundwater depletion as a result of the proposed well- field. It is a technical report published in the framework of ARIGA - Assessing Risks of Investment in Groundwater Development in Sub-Saharan Africa. The principles of Applied Information Economics are used to develop a decision model for the water supply intervention. The results of the hydrogeological study are used in that decision model. The hydrogeological study aims to predict the effect of the pipeline project on the groundwater system, while also stating the uncertainty in the predictions. This study focusses on the prediction of drawdown of groundwater levels, ultimately leading to boreholes falling dry, and deteriorating water quality as a result of displacement of saline water in the aquifer in a 30 year time period. Process-based models, that conceptualize the physical processes in the groundwater system, are combined with stochastic methods. This approach provides the probabilistic characteristics of the model outcomes to support decision-making.

  • Making Peace Under the Mango Tree a Study on the Role of Local Institutions in Conflicts Over Natural Resources in Tana Delta, Kenya
    Making peace under the mango tree A study on the role of local institutions in conflicts over natural resources in Tana Delta, Kenya By Joris Cuppen s0613851 Master Thesis Human Geography Globalisation, Migration and Development Supervisor: Marcel Rutten October 2013 Radboud University Nijmegen ii Abstract In this research, conflicts over natural resources in the Tana Delta and the role of local institutions are central, with a special emphasis on the 2012/2013 clashes. In this region, conflicts between the two dominant ethnic groups, the Orma (who are predominantly herders) and the Pokomo (predominantly farmers), are common. Three types of institutions are involved with conflict management and natural resource management, namely the local administration, village elders, and peace committees. As for other regions in Kenya, the authority of elders has diminished in the past decades, whereas the local administration lacks the authority and capacity to govern the region. Therefore, peace committees can play a vital role in conflict management and natural resource management. The main natural resources which are contested in the Tana delta, are water, pasture, and farmland. Although peace committees seem fairly effective with managing cross-communal conflicts and preventing any further escalation, conflict prevention needs further priority. Cross- communal agreements to manage natural resources have been less and less the case, which is one of the main factors causing conflicts. Engagement of communities in making these agreements should be one of the priorities in the post-clashes Tana delta. As for the 2012/2013 clashes, it is likely that outside interference, either prior or during the conflict, has caused the escalation of violence, which has led to the loss of almost 200 human lives, probably because of a favourable outcome of the elections held in March 2013.
