EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The emerging signs of drought and the growing humanitarian crisis in Kenya have worsened since mid-2008. Four consecutive failed rains, sustained high food and commodity prices, the economic and social impacts of post-election violence (PEV), livestock diseases, and an ever-increasing level of vulnerability have converged to precipitate a serious food and livelihoods crisis. Since the end of 2008, the estimated number of people requiring food assistance has leapt from 1.4 million to more than 3.8 million. The cycle of drought in Kenya has dramatically accelerated in recent years. Underlying these regular episodes is an ever-increasing level of vulnerability in Arid and Semi-Arid Land (ASAL) areas, and among the poor in cities. The combination of chronic need and acute shocks is mutually reinforcing, requiring an integrated response that seeks to address immediate and structural needs. Pastoralist communities inhabit 80% of Kenya’s land mass and are the custodians of dryland environments. Despite providing such value, pastoralist areas have the highest incidence of poverty and the least access to basic services compared with other areas. There is also an increasing awareness of a Kenya Emergency Humanitarian Response humanitarian crisis developing in urban areas. Plan 2010: Key parameters The proliferation and expansion of informal Duration 12 months settlements reflect ongoing economic migration (January – December 2010) to cities, as well as population growth.

M. Georgiadis Johnson with contributions by Stanley A. Ahler, Herbert Haas, and Georges Bonani SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of “diffusing knowledge” was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: “It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge.” This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to History and Technology Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Museum Conservation Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report on the research and collections of its various museums and bureaus. The Smithsonian Contributions Series are distributed via mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institu- tions throughout the world. Manuscripts submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Scholarly Press from authors with direct affilia- tion with the various Smithsonian museums or bureaus and are subject to peer review and review for compliance with manuscript preparation guidelines.

    Year 3- Kenya

    Year 3- Kenya Term: Autumn 2 Subject focus: Geography and Art Non-Fiction: Report Fiction: Narrative Recount Concepts Geography Art People and Places/Global Citizenship Inspiration/Creativity/Critique Children build on their understanding of the continent of Africa which was explored in Year 1 to now dive deeper into a focussed country. Children can use what they have learn to make comparisons between the different countries explored in Amazing Africa, especially Nigeria, with what they will learn about Kenya. With a large number of West African families in our school community, this topic gives children the opportunity to learn about the country where they, their family or friends descend from. Children are able to develop their geographical skills within this topic, looking at more detailed maps of Africa and the world. They are able to focus their understanding of physical and human features of Africa to one particular country. This units contributes to the children’s understanding of people and places in the world, having learnt about similar and contrasting places in previous years (Africa, Arctic and Antarctica, South America and local places). Later in the year, children will build further upon their knowledge of Africa when they look at the ancient history of the Egyptians, creating a deeper understanding of the continent through time. This topic also helps to prepare children for the topic Europe, where they will consider the effects that Europe has had on the rest of the world, including its role in the Transatlantic Slave Trade. In Year 1, the children learnt about the creative work of Ester Mahlangu- focusing on the use of colour and pattern to create a piece of art.

Economic growth is still Krobust, although below potential and initial expectations. At an estimated 4.3 percent, Kenya’s growth rate will fall short of its 2010 performance, when the economy rebounded strongly at 5.6 percent but will be higher than Kenya’s long-term average rate of 3.7 percent. The ongoing economic crisis underscores Kenya’s structural challenges, especially weak exports, which are the primary cause of Kenya’s recent macroeconomic instability, and contributor to the sharp decline in the Kenyan shilling. For 2012, the Word Bank projects a 5.0 percent growth rate, if the government is able to effectively manage the current crisis, maintain political stability in the run-up to the elections, and address the security challenges arising from the conflict with Somalia. 1.

    Kenya Malaria General Malaria Information: Predominantly P

    Kenya Malaria General malaria information: predominantly P. falciparum. Transmission occurs throughout the year, with extremely high transmission in most counties surrounding Lake Victoria. Some areas with low or no transmission may only be accessible by transiting areas where chemoprophylaxis is recommended. Location-specific recommendations: Chemoprophylaxis is recommended for all travelers: elevations below 2,500 m (8,200 ft), including all coastal resorts and safari itineraries; all cities and towns within these areas (including Nairobi). No preventive measures are necessary (no evidence of transmission exists): elevations above 2,500 m. Preventive measures: Travelers should observe insect precautions from dusk to dawn in areas with any level of transmission. Atovaquone-proguanil (Malarone or generic), doxycycline, mefloquine, and tafenoquine are protective in this country. G6PD testing is required prior to tafenoquine use. 34°E 37°E 40°E 43°E NUMBERED COUNTIES 5°N SOUTH Ilemi 1 - Nairobi 25 - Kakamega 2 - Kajiado SUDAN Triangle ETHIOPIA 26 - Vihiga 3 - Makueni 27 - Nandi Lokichogio 4 - Machakos 28 - Baringo " 5 - Embu 29 - Elgeyo/Marakwet Lake Sibiloi N.P. 6 - Tharaka-Nithi Turkana 30 - Uasin Gishu 7 - Meru 31 - Bungoma " 37 8 - Kirinyaga 32 - Trans Nzoia Moyale Lodwar 9 - Murang'a 33 - West Pokot " 36 El 10 - Kiambu 34 - Turkana Wak " 11 - Nyeri 35 - Samburu T u r Marsabit 12 - Laikipia k 36 - Marsabit w N.P. e Marsabit 13 - Nyandarua 37 - Mandera l " 34 14 - Nakuru 38 - Wajir 2°N m ua M 15 - Narok 39 - Isiolo UGANDA S a Wajir l Losai m " 16 - Bomet 40 - Kitui a N.P. l t 33 e 38 17 - Nyamira 41 - Tana River 35 39 18 - Kisii 42 - Garissa 32 29 SOMALIA 19 - Migori 43 - Lamu 28 Samburu N.P.
