  • Explaining Resource Use, Management and Productivity Among the Akamba, Orma and Somali in the Former Eastern Statelands of Kenya
    ©Kamla-Raj 2004 Stud. Tribes Tribals, 2(1): 55-63 (2004) Common Range, Different Tribes: Explaining Resource Use, Management and Productivity among the Akamba, Orma and Somali in the former Eastern Statelands of Kenya Dickson Mong’are Nyariki1 and Jan Van den Abeele2 1. Department of Range Management, University of Nairobi P.O. Box 29053, Nairobi, Kenya Email: [email protected] 2. Forestry Development Support Programme, Belgian Technical Cooperation, P.O. Box 30513, Nairobi, Kenya KEYWORDS Common use; range management; resource conflicts; Eastern Statelands; Kenya ABSTRACT This paper describes the major livelihood activities of three ethnic communities who use in common the former Kenyan Eastern Statelands. It also looks at how the livelihoods and the range could be improved while maintaining the common access to resources, so as to avoid potential conflicts. It is suggested that for improvement of range management the unsettled lands should be accessed by all the communities under ranching societies without having to exclude non-members. A number of approaches should be instituted, including bush control and reseeding. Bush control can be achieved through exploitation of trees of low timber value for charcoal production to earn income for households. To increase livestock productivity, it is proposed that proper livestock and grazing management be practised, including the introduction of superior breeds, improved livestock facilities, adequate animal healthcare and rotational grazing through paddocking. INTRODUCTION and improve the living standards of the communities, the stakeholders and development The colonial government in Kenya set aside agents should rethink the use and management the former Eastern Statelands for State of this resource.

  • 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.
