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. -

An economic analysis of grain legumes profitability in Nandi County, Kenya Mercy Onyango¹*, David Jakinda Otieno², Rose Adhiambo Nyikal3 and John Ojiem4 1,2,3 Department of Agricultural Economics, University of Nairobi, Kenya 4Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organization (KALRO) *presenting author: [email protected] A Contributed Paper Submitted for Oral Presentation at the African Association for Agricultural Economists (AAAE) Conference in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia September 23rd – 26th, 2016 Abstract Grain legumes have great potential for improving smallholder farmers’ productivity in Sub- Saharan Africa (SSA) though their potential has not been fully exploited due to critical problems including high insect pests and disease infestation. As part of the process of addressing these challenges, the Collaborative Crop Research Program (CCRP) of the McKnight Foundation in collaboration with Cornell University and Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organization (KALRO) recently introduced crop and soil enhancing strategies in Western Kenya. One of the strategies introduced included use of multipurpose grain legumes species in Nandi County (Koibem, Kapkerer and Kiptaruswo sites). Through this initiative, various legume species including common bean, cowpea, groundnuts, lablab and soybean of different varieties are being promoted at the farm level.
