Considering the fact that the devolved county governments will be in charge of the constituencies under them, direct allocations to CDF will amount to duplication and wastage. Indeed the ministry of finance has already established a technical committee known as The Fiscal Decentralisation Kenya which is working out the technical fiscal mo- dalities that may eventually seal the fate of the Constituency Develop- ment Fund as Treasury seeks a new system of funding the grassroots. CDF currently enjoys 2.5 per cent of the national revenue which is transferred to the fund by the central government. Of the money collected, 75 per cent is divided equally among constituencies and 25 per cent shared on the basis of poverty index outlined by the Min- istry of Planning and National De- velopment. The Committee says that Local Authorities Transfer Fund (LATF) is also expected to be phased out.

  • CONFLICT SNAPSHOT Kenya December 2020 Introduction
    Funded by the European Union CONFLICT SNAPSHOT Kenya December 2020 Introduction Kenya is a large culturally and ethnic diverse country, with over 40 different ethnic groups and numerous superimposed conflicts. Ethnic tensions and clashes coupled with political instability that manifests during the election period have been on the rise in the recent past. Recurrent drought that pushes herders into farmlands in search of pasture has led to violent clashes between herders and farmers in Garissa and Tana River counties. Ethnic group affiliation and highly centralised ethnopolitics are the primary identity of many Kenyans, especially during periods of turmoil. According to the Conflict Analysis of Kenya report, Kenyan Muslims have been marginalised within the Kenyan state and feel like they are treated as second-rate citizens. Data collection and analysis Data for the conflict snapshot COVID-19 series in Kenya was airoi gathered from 21-25 September in the following target zones: arissa This coincided with a period of relative calm in terms of ana iver COVID-19 caseloads and containment measures in Kenya, Kilifi as it fell in between the first and second wave of outbreaks omasa and many people believed there would soon be a return to normalcy. This perception may have influenced certain survey wale responses and we expect to see changes in this in the next round of snapshot reports. This report was prepared by the Search for Common Ground Kenya team, with support from Search’s COVID-19 Response Programming Team and Institutional Learning Team. For more information on the data collection methodology and tools used by Search for Common Ground for this research, click here.

More often than not they are subjected to numerous violations ranging from attacks, murders, harassments, and infringement of their fundamental rights among many others. Kenya is not left behind, it is one of the countries that has become extremely unbearable for the EHRDs to survive in. In this regard, CJGEA came up with an initiative to empower EHRDs countrywide to ensure they are protected and feel secure when handling their work. This was also to ensure environmental protection and conservation work continues smoothly. For the past three years, EHRDs drawn from all over the country under the banner of CJGEA have been meeting annually for a workshop to deliberate on the issues that affect them and the work they do so as to better their work in protecting the environment.
