2010 KENYA EMERGENCY HUMANITARIAN RESPONSE PLAN

1. 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 humanitarian crisis developing in urban areas. The proliferation and expansion of informal settlements reflect ongoing economic migration to cities, as well as population growth. According to projections made in 2003 by the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN HABITAT), 42.9% of the population will live in urban areas by 2010. Populations living in slum areas endure deplorable living conditions and are at high risk due to exposure to poor sanitation and hygiene, and a lack of access to potable water. This will ultimately result in a declining health and nutrition status. High youth unemployment levels, market dependence and sustained high commodity prices have also fuelled the ongoing rise in criminality, and other negative and high-risk coping strategies.

While there has been a steady return of those displaced by post-election violence, an estimated 35,000 people remain in transit sites, and 25,000 are in self-help groups that require support to establish sustainable living conditions and livelihoods. The continued delays in pursing the reforms and commitments laid out in the National Accord and Reconciliation Act (NARA), and the need for widespread peace and reconciliation efforts have also raised concern over the possibility of violence leading up to the elections in 2012. Upcoming political processes, such as constitutional reform, Mau Forest evictions and ongoing discussions around perpetrators of post-election violence, could potentially trigger renewed tensions. The growing number of refugees arriving from Somalia is an additional major area of need. The crisis precipitated by persistent insecurity and drought has seen an average of 250 people crossing into Kenya each day, despite the continued closure of the Kenya/Somalia border. The growing number of refugees has far exceeded the available capacity to assist them. This is particularly relevant to the three Dadaab camps, where more than 283,000 refugees are accommodated in facilities designed to assist a maximum of 90,000 people.

The escalation in needs in ASAL areas and among the refugee population necessitated a scale-up of activities during 2009. The original appeal had requested US$1389 million, which was later revised to $576 million to respond to increased needs. With donors’ generous support, the 2009 appeal has, to date, received $370 million (64%) of the total funds requested. Funding shortfalls have constrained response, particularly in sectors such as Coordination, Education, Health, Early Recovery and Food Security, each of which has received less than 35% of requirements. Four allocations from the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) have provided $25.85 million for rapid-response activities and in support of under-funded sectors. Due to the continued increase in humanitarian need, the Kenya Humanitarian Partnership Team has unanimously agreed on the ongoing necessity for an Emergency Humanitarian Response Plan (EHRP) in 2010. The EHRP presents strategic response plans in 11 key sectors and requirements for 37 organizations, including eight United Nations agencies and 29 non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The total amount requested under the appeal is $508.5 million. Some basic humanitarian and development facts about Kenya

2. 2009 IN REVIEW

2.1 The EHRP in 2009 Emergency operations throughout Kenya in 2009 have addressed substantial humanitarian needs caused by multiple and intersecting challenges. The failure of four consecutive rainy seasons, combined with below-average crop production and high commodity prices have contributed to growing levels of humanitarian need, a continued erosion of livelihoods and heightened vulnerability. The ASALs, urban populations and some parts of Eastern Province and Coast have been particularly hard hit. In addition, the ongoing refugee influx from neighbouring Somalia and a lack of durable solutions for many IDPs were priority concerns throughout 2009. In November 2008, humanitarian partners launched the 2009 EHRP, requesting $389 million. The strategy and appeal focused on the ongoing needs, from post-election violence, emerging drought and assistance to refugees. In March 2009, the EHRP was revised to reflect the growing needs related to drought and food insecurity, and the continued increase in the number of refugees from Somalia. The appeal’s revised total was $576 million for projects covering 10 sectors.2 The EHRP identified four strategic priorities: • Timely, coordinated humanitarian assistance and protection is provided to highly vulnerable

populations affected by natural and man-made disasters in accordance with internationally accepted norms and standards.

• Early-recovery initiatives are linked with longer-term programming to reduce vulnerability and strengthen resilience among vulnerable populations.

• Strong linkages with conflict mitigation, peace-building and reconciliation initiatives are integrated within humanitarian action.

• The capacity of national institutions and networks is strengthened to enhance coordination, undertake humanitarian policy development, and promote emergency preparedness and disaster risk reduction.

According to donor and agency information conveyed to the Financial Tracking Service (FTS)3, $408.2 million has been committed to humanitarian action in Kenya to date (inside and outside the appeal’s framework). This has exceeded 2008 funding levels. Of this amount, 90% ($370 million) has been allocated through the EHRP. To date, the EHRP has received 64% of the $581 million requested, including $85.4 million in carry-over funding. These significant contributions have provided substantial assistance to affected populations. However, shortfalls in some areas have constrained the ability to meet escalating needs. During the 2009 appeal cycle, the number of food aid beneficiaries has almost tripled, from the 1.4 million planned for at the end of 2008 to 3.8 million as of August 2009.. In addition to the relatively low-level coverage of needs, large disparities persist in the coverage of sectors, with five of the sectors receiving less than 35% of funds requested (Coordination, Early Recovery and Food Security, Education, and Health). Funding gaps, particularly for non-food sectors, have limited a comprehensive drought response. To date, Kenya has received more than $25.8 million in CERF funding through three rapid-response grants and one allocation from the under-funded emergencies window. These funds have been prioritized to address needs related to drought, including food insecurity, malnutrition, and water and sanitation. They have also addressed cholera response and assistance for refugees.

Progress towards sustainable coordination mechanisms has continued throughout the year. The 11 clusters that were formed in response to the post-election crisis have transitioned into sector working groups, with joint leadership from the Government of Kenya and United Nations agencies. A new coordination structure for crisis response was presented in September 2009. It comprises a National Crisis Response Steering Committee formed by the cabinet sub-committee on Food Security and chaired by the Prime Minister, and a Crisis Response Centre formed by the different line ministries and coordinated by the Ministry of State for Special Programmes (MoSSP). The Kenya Meteorological Department predicted a period of increased rainfall with severe flooding expected in north-eastern Kenya and the Lake Victoria Basin throughout the end of the year. In reaction to this, the Crisis Response Centre in the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) led an inter-agency contingency planning process in August 2009. In that same month, the Government of Kenya launched an extensive campaign, through which it deployed its own resources worth 21 billion Kenyan shillings (Ksh) (equivalent to $280 million) to address emergency food needs and provide water for the most severely affected. Nevertheless, there is a shortfall of almost Ksh 25 billion ($333 million). In 2009, 2.2 million people in the ASALs have received food assistance. More than 420,000 schoolchildren in coastal districts are receiving emergency school feeding. Following the Long Rains Assessment (LRA), the numbers of people targeted for food assistance increased to 3.8 million, and an additional 1.5 million through WFP programmes and the home-grown school feeding programme. More than 100,000 people in PEV-affected areas received basic needs assistance including improved access to safe water and food assistance. In addition, 20,000 IDP shelters have been constructed to date, with a further 10,000 expected towards the end of the year. Health sector partners have responded to cholera outbreaks in 38 districts in five provinces and kala azar outbreaks in three districts of the Rift Valley and north-eastern provinces. As of July 2009, approximately 51,300 children under five had been admitted into supplementary feeding programmes and 8,400 into therapeutic feeding programmes. This represents a significant increase from last year, during which 7,400 children were admitted in therapeutic feeding programmes for the whole of 2008. Detailed breakdowns of achievements in each sector are provided in the logframe below.

As humanitarian needs in Kenya have grown throughout 2009, a lack of resources has limited the response in several sectors. This has highlighted the need to clearly define humanitarian action in

7


urban areas that, along with pastoral and rural areas, have been severely affected by the humanitarian crisis. In addition to drought conditions, rising food prices and growing vulnerabilities and needs, the Somalia crisis has had multiple effects on Kenya. Insecurity has hampered the response in parts of north-eastern Kenya, where humanitarian needs are among the country’s highest, restricting access and suspending a number of programmes. The situation in Somalia has caused a steady stream of refugees into overcrowded camps in Dadaab, with more than 50,000 refugees entering Kenya in 2009. A solution to this forgotten crisis is additional land for new camps. However, this land is yet to be found. In addition, 60,000 people displaced by the PEV of 2008 still reside in temporary and semi-permanent settlements. Even 20 months after the crisis, many still live in tents.

• 60,000 vulnerable households provided with production-enhancing inputs such seeds, fertilizers, pesticides and farm implements through the voucher system in North Rift Valley for the long rain 2009 planting.

• 3,000 households supported to construct soil and water conservation structures and issued with drought tolerant seeds and fruit seedlings for planting in the marginal agricultural areas of eastern Kenya.

• Sensitization meeting on crop diversification and use of drought tolerant crops conducted for agriculture extension workers including Government of Kenya and NGO staff in 12 districts in the marginal agricultural areas of eastern Kenya.

• Supported the revival of Ahero Rice Irrigation Schemes through provision of seeds, fertilizers and pesticides enough to plant 2,200 acres of land.

The main constrains during the year were: • Drought caused by

below average rainfall even in the medium and high rainfall areas. In ASAL areas, over 90% crop failures were realized in most locations.

• Limited funding is also a major constraint.

To harmonize disaster preparedness and disaster response plans, particularly at the community-level.

• Not done. • Financial constraints. • Capacity constraints. • Planning delays.

10


Education Objective Status Constraints To ensure access and retention of ECD and primary school-aged children in quality and protective learning environment, during emergency situation.

• 19 schools were constructed in Rift Valley Province. School-feeding programmes (supported by WFP and the Government of Kenya’s Home-Grown School Feeding programme) supported 1.3 million children stay in school. UNICEF provided essential education supplies to ensure continued education to more than 40,000 children. Support was provided to the ECD and primary school-aged children through sensitization and social communication drives among religious leaders from focused districts (11 ASALs) on the importance of ECD and primary education.

Most of the ASAL areas which are also affected by emergency show low enrolments even during normal situations. Policies and interventions have been designed such as the Nomadic Education and policy for Alternative provision of Basic Education and Training. They are yet to be implemented.

To provide appropriate learning opportunities to the secondary school-aged children and young people.

• Learning opportunities provided as the Government of Kenya encouraged the schools to allow children without uniforms and waived fees for learners participating in Kenya Certificate of Secondary Examination (KCSE) exams during the heightened emergency situation. UNICEF supported and finalized a SiTAN on out-of-schoolchildren (a study on marketable and vocational skills with findings informing youth choices for acquisition of marketable skills) and is finalizing preparation for initiating a pilot talent academy.

To ensure equity and inclusiveness for marginalized, vulnerable and excluded children affected by the emergency.

• Overall, school enrolment reflects the population make-up of marginalized, orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) and excluded children. Through strengthening systems capacities of the MoE in improving the quality of education- where child-friendly school principles are being applied to improve the learning environment of children in the ASAL districts and urban informal settlements.

• The lack of funding in this area hampers implementation.

To strengthen the capacity of key education stakeholders at all levels in emergency preparedness planning and management.

• In efforts to build better systems for preparedness and disaster risk reduction, the development of a national preparedness plan has been initiated with the Ministry of Education (MoE) and orientation on emergency preparedness and response was provided for key 30 officers at national and provincial levels. It will be rolled out to the districts, where 255 officers will receive orientation on education in emergencies for an effective emergency management.

• The education sector coordination mechanism still needs to be strengthened so that it can meet on a regular monthly basis and include key education partners.

To ensure psycho-social and emotional well-being of children and young people through peace education, conflict management, and psycho-social support.

• The Peace Education Programme, developed in the aftermath of the post-election violence, continues to be rolled out with 4,000 teachers trained to date and making the curriculum available to 100,000 children.

11


Food and Nutrition Objective Status Constraints Address moderate acute malnutrition in children under five and prevent further deterioration of nutritional status of food-insecure populations in targeted districts.

• Some 2.2 million people benefited from general food distributions in arid districts of Kenya through August and September distributions. A scale-up to 3.8 million recommended by the LRA started in October.

• Mobilizing sufficient funds to ensure food pipeline. Operational requirements very high. National grain market offers no possibility for local purchase.

Enhance communities’ resilience to shocks through safety nets or asset creation.

• Through food-for-asset projects, WFP managed to restore or create the following: - 366 soil/water conservations projects. - 441,000 ha irrigated/protected. - 186 km roads built. - Some 420,000 people are currently benefiting from these projects (410,000 drought-stricken Kenyans and some 10,000 refugees).

• Identifying partners with adequate technical expertise and knowledge on communities; ensuring sufficient technical supervision from Government of Kenya line ministries; ensuring food-for-asset (FFA) is in line ministries’ budgets

Support and re-establish livelihoods and food and nutrition security aftershocks.

• Emergency school meals programme provided to some 422,000 children to prevent drop-outs from school and as an additional safety net for drought-affected households in semi-arid districts.

• 937,000 schoolchildren fed during August in arid and semi-arid districts to prevent migration of households and ensure attendance in September term.

• Rapid expansion of emergency school meals; capacity of schools to receive food, run the programme.

Ensure that essential nutrition services are delivered to affected populations.

• Technical and logistical support as well as essential supplies provided to Ministry of Public Health /Ministry of Medical Services (MoPH/MoMS), provided by UNICEF, WFP, ARLMP and partners (i.e. Samaritan Purse, World Vision, IMC, MERLIN, Action Against Hunger (AAH), Concern Worldwide, Mercy, USA, Family Health International [FHI], Islamic Relief [IR]). As a result, key nutrition services, including integrated management of acute malnutrition, have scaled-up in 24 larger districts.

• As of July 2009 about 51,300 children under five have been admitted into supplementary feeding programmes and about 8,400 into therapeutic feeding programmes. This represents a significant increase from last year, where the total number of children admitted in therapeutic feeding programs was about 7,400 for the whole 2008.

• Scale-up of infant and young child feeding capacity of government and partners in five provinces (Nyanza, Rift Valley, Coast, Eastern and Central) for improved prenatal and postnatal counselling on infant feeding with high intensity in emergency areas and urban areas.

• Finalization and dissemination of national guideline for management of acute malnutrition. • Operational research started in Mandera to assess impact of blanket supplementary feeding and

utilization of other nutrition products.

• Limited funding available for NGO partners to scale-up interventions, especially at the beginning of the year.

• Limited capacity of MoPHS/MoMS, especially human resources and logistic which affect scale-up of nutrition response as well as integration of services.

• Insecurity in north-eastern Province

12


Objective Status Constraints (NEP) interrupting support to nutrition services, especially in Mandera.

• Difficult road conditions in northern Kenya affecting outreach activities from rural health facilities.

Ensure that efficient coordination mechanisms are in place at national and sub-national levels.

• Effective coordination of nutrition sector activities at national level with three functional working groups, i.e. urban, information and capacity development. This has contributed to improved planning, preparedness, harmonization of approaches and advocacy.

• Limited capacity within current systems at sub-national level to support efficient coordination mechanisms.

Maintain efficient nutrition surveillance systems.

• 18 nutrition surveys conducted in ASAL areas - supported by a number of partners, i.e. ACF, SC, Samaritan’s Purse (SP), Islamic Relief (IR), MERLIN, Oxfam, Concern, WV as well as UNICEF.

• Sentinel Surveillance established in ASAL (Mandera and Garisa) and urban poor areas (Nairobi) – supported by ACF.

• Strengthening of routine reporting, especially for management of acute malnutrition, with programme reports sent on quarterly basis.

• Key nutrition indicators not included in routine database e.g. Health Integrated Management System.

• Limited capacity within Government systems to support efficient surveillance system.

13


Health Objective Status Constraints Improve case management and infection control in targeted health facilities including partnering NGOs.

• WHO and Ministry of Public Health and Sanitation (MoPH&S) conducted orientation for health facility staff for ten districts in Eastern Province (Laisamis, Garbatula, Merti, Isiolo, Marsabit, Moyale, Turkana, Wajir central, south and north) , districts in Nyanza and Coast on management of acute watery diarrhoea, cholera and dysentery and infection control. Efforts were also complemented by MoPH&S, MoMS, UNICEF, Médecins sans Frontières (MSF) and MERLIN. Similarly, Wajir central, north and south districts also had orientation in diagnosis and management of kala azar. The efforts were also complemented by MERLIN.

• WHO hired 10 nurses and clinical officers in the Eastern province and recruited another 30 for the districts in north-eastern province.

• A total of 7,200 cases have so far been reported with case fatality rate of 2.3%. By August 2009, the outbreak had been contained in 33 districts but there is re-emergency as a result of the drought, acute water shortage, and poor hygiene practices.

• UNICEF has supported Government and partners in response to cholera through the provision of assorted medical supplies sufficient for the treatment of 300,000 people in twenty-three districts and supporting the strengthening of treatment of cholera at health facility and community levels using oral rehydration therapy (ORT).

• There is an acute shortage of health workers in these areas.

Improve the emergency early warning systems, outbreak investigation control and outbreak information management for the affected districts.

• At least 30 district health teams in Coast, north-eastern and Eastern provinces had orientation in disease surveillance, disease outbreak investigation, and response. Even though this was an emergency intervention, the general weekly reporting rate of the districts has improved from 60 to 75%. The orientation also improved the prompt confirmation of cases and response reaction time.

• Most of the radios for communication have broken down especially in the north-eastern province.

• The district hospitals lack the capacity to diagnose. Laboratory equipment is not used and expertise to use laboratory facility is lacking.

Ensure availability of basic and essential drugs, reagents, personal protection kits, and detergents for the diagnosis, management, and control of these diseases.

• Essential drugs for cholera control were procured locally and made available to the affected districts and partners in time. Large consignments of the essential drugs, infusions, antibiotics etc. and other items were made available to Nyanza, Eastern, Coast, and north eastern provinces district hospitals. These were the first to arrive before government supplements.

• UNICEF has supported Government and partners in response to cholera by providing assorted medical supplies sufficient for the treatment of 300,000 people in twenty-three districts. Using ORT, UNICEF has also helped enhance treatment of cholera at health facility and community levels using ORT.

• Difficult road networks and at times shortage of storage facilities in some of the weak districts.

To facilitate coordinated approach for diseases outbreak response in affected districts.

• The local authorities and district disaster committees were engaged by WHO in establishing Health Sector coordination mechanisms in the affected districts and provinces. The meetings are still held regularly.

• Poor logistical support from some of the newly created districts.

Ensure cross border collaboration for effective response using international partners in the area.

• WHO Kenya collaborated with WHO Ethiopia to establish joint cholera and acute watery diarrhoea coordination mechanisms in Moyale. MSF from countries, district health teams, Moyale hospital team and local authorities from both communities also participated.

• Both areas in Kenya and Somalia are difficult to access.

• Inadequate budgetary space for shelter (particularly in view of 7,000 monthly new arrivals in Dadaab and 600 in Kakuma on average).

• Few qualified masons available in the camps and surrounding host community thus raising cost of hiring masons and ultimately construction costs.

• Logistical bottle necks due to limited number of vehicles with UNHCR and UNHCR partners.

NFIs: All refugees were provided with sufficient NFIs to enable them to live with dignity.

• 6,750 metric tons (MTs) of firewood were to be distributed and 5,400 rocket stoves produced and distributed across the three camps in Dadaab. In Kakuma 3,000 rocket stoves distributed.

• Distributed 33,396 sanitary towels in Dadaab and 9,450 in Kakuma to women.

upon arrival. • Long waiting periods for RSD interviews after registration

and general lack of awareness on RSD procedures. • Limited awareness of protection services. • Shortage of female staff to deal with sexual and gender-

based violence (SGBV) cases. • High turnover of security forces hinders continuity in

effective maintenance of law and order and handling of refugees.

• Selective implementation of the Refugees Act mainly due to Department of Refugee Affairs’ lack of adequate staff resources.

16


Protection Objective Status Constraints UNHCR-led cluster is transformed into a National Protection Forum.

• An effective transition has been completed with the Protection Cluster being transformed into the National Protection Working Group on Internally Displaced People (IDPs) – chaired by the Ministry of Justice and co-chaired by the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights. At a regional level, the North Rift Protection Working Group is now chaired by the District Children’s Officer for Uasin Gishu and the South Rift Protection Working Group is now chaired by the National Council of Churches in Kenya. The Sub-Working Group on Child Protection is now chaired by the Dept. of Children’s Services and the GBV Sub -Working Group is now chaired by the Gender Commission. The sub-working group on Legal Aid is chaired by the Children’s Legal Aid Network.

To enhance the accuracy of knowledge of environmental protection of people affected by conflict and displacement.

• A protection monitoring programme has been established in the Rift Valley providing up-to-date information on the IDP environment and complementary analysis on protection trends, inter- communal relationships, human security, and early warning on new displacement threats.

• Improved information sharing in protection fora has led to more influential lobbying to improve IDP conditions. • A national IDP Stakeholders’ Forum was held in July bringing together IDPs, Government, donors, civil society, the

United Nations and academic experts. A strong consensus was achieved in regards to Kenya developing a national IDP Policy.

Create conditions conducive to durable solutions for people affected by conflict and displacement.

• Nearly 20,000 houses have been constructed, allowing IDPs to return to their home areas complemented by cash grants allowing displaced people to build houses and purchase land. Emergency shelter provision for IDPs in the Rift Valley has been extended as a result of humanitarian lobbying.

• Investment in peace and reconciliation and conflict resolution processes in the Rift Valley has in some districts enhanced IDP integration and reduced the threat of new conflict.

To ensure that child protection and response mechanisms are established in areas of conflict and displacement.

• A Child Protection in Emergencies coordination mechanism was established at the national level under the leadership of the Department of Children's Services. Integration of the Collaborative Programme on the Reunification of Separated Children (developed during the PEV) into a national systems development effort to be used in both emergency and development environments; continued reunification of children separated as a result of the 2008 PEV.

• In Dadaab refugee camp, continued legal support to children before the mobile and khadi courts and completed construction of four new child-friendly spaces.

• As of August 2009, more than 5,700 of the 8,000 children identified as separate due to the post-election violence have been re-unified with their parents or legal guardians.

Deliver a set of interventions to prevent and respond to GBV in line with the IASC Guidelines for GBV Interventions in Humanitarian Settings and other international and national policies, resources and guidelines in areas affected by natural disasters and conflict including IDP and refugee populations with specific focus on capacity-building and multi-sector systems development.

• Medical-legal camps facilitated in Kibera, Mathare and Naivasha. The three areas were mapped because they had experienced most GBV cases during the PEV and most of the survivors had not received medical care and psycho-social support or legal attention.

• In June 2009, an in-house, two-day training for new members of the sub-cluster, who had not been trained on GBV/sexual exploitation and abuse (SEA), was conducted by the National GBV Coordinator. The training covered key concepts in understanding GBV, linking GBV to human rights, statistics on gender inequality, myths and facts related to GBV, GBV prevention, consequences of GBV, good referral networks, guiding principles on GBV, multi-sectoral framework, and coordination. Some of the areas covered in SEA training included SEA concepts, six core principles, and protection from SEA.

• The medical-legal camps targeted everyone to avoid stigmatizing the survivors. The survivors were, however, targeted through mobilization by the implementing partners. During this period there was a lot of information shared on GBV prevention and response especially in the legal and health pillars. IEC materials were distributed.

17


Shelter and Camp Coordination and Camp Management Objective Status Constraints Ensure access to adequate physical protection, decent living conditions, and proper shelter.

• Construction of nearly 20,000 houses for an estimated population of 100,000 people in the South and North Rift.

• Effective transition of the Shelter Cluster, which is now chaired by the MoSSP.

• The number of people in need of assistance outweighed the number of houses in place.

• According to the MoSP, over 78,000 houses were destroyed during the political crisis of January/February 2008. Under current plans, only 50,000 houses will be built.

• The mushrooming of the self-help groups across the South Rift has increased demands on shelter, as many of these groups did not have sufficient money after land purchases to build a decent house. The majority of these people are still in tents.

Provide sufficient basic domestic hygiene items (NFI) and emergency shelter to IDPs and other affected people.

• UNHCR has continued to provide NFIs, particularly in the areas of return. A relatively small population is benefiting.

• Insufficient stocks of NFIs have been a significant constraint as many of the tents being occupied by IDPs in the Rift Valley are in a very poor condition.

Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH)

Objective Status Constraints Effective leadership is set-up for WASH Inter-Agency Coordination, including for provision of children and women’s special needs regarding WASH.

• UNICEF in collaboration with Ministry of Water & Irrigation, have provided effective leadership as WASH Cluster Coordinator through the WASH Cluster/Inter Agency Coordination including the development of the Sector EHRP & El Niño flood emergency preparedness & response planning.

• WASH Cluster/ Water and Environmental Sanitation Coordination Committee (WESCOORD) Coordination mechanism has provided guidance to all partners on common approaches and standards; ensured that all critical WASH gaps and vulnerabilities are identified, and provides information on who is doing what, where, when, how, to ensure that all gaps are addressed without duplication.

• UNICEF supported coordination in response to cholera outbreak in 22 districts supporting the District Water Officers & Public Health Officers in facilitating district WESCOORDs and coordinating responses.

• UNICEF facilitated Cholera Emergency Preparedness & Response training for 25 District Water & Public Health Officers from affected districts.

• UNICEF facilitated training on water quality testing & surveillance programmes for 50 district water & public health officers.

• Human resource capacity of WESCOORD/WASH Cluster has been a major constraint.

Affected population including children and women have safe and reliable access to sufficient water of appropriate quality for drinking, cooking, and maintaining good hygiene.

• 343 water points constructed or rehabilitated in IDP areas and drought-affected districts. • Estimated 1,260,800 children and women in IDP areas and drought- affected districts have improved

access to safe drinking water. • In total an estimated 1,637,389 people in IDP areas and drought- affected districts have improved

access to safe drinking water. • Support to Government of Kenya in drought, Cholera, & affected IDP districts in terms of the supply of

water treatment chemicals for disinfection of community water sources and municipal supplies.

• Funding has been a major constraint.

18


Objective Status Constraints • 13 portable water quality testing kits provided to Ministry of Water and Irrigation (MoWI) & MoPH&S – 50

district water offices and District Public Health Officers (DPHOs) trained in their use and how to set up and monitor water quality surveillance programmes.

• 25 district officers trained in cholera emergency preparedness and response techniques. Affected population including children and women have easy access to toilets and washing facilities, both day and night that are secure, sanitary and are user- and gender-friendly.

• 58,770 people including 45,300 children and women benefited from access to improved sanitation facilities in IDP return areas and drought-affected districts.


Affected population including children and women and child caregivers receive critical WASH- related information on how to protect health and well being, especially prevention of diarrhoeal disease among young children.

• 241,280 children and women in IDP returnee areas and drought- affected districts received critical WASH messages.

• In total 312,950 people in IDP returnee areas and drought-affected districts received critical WASH messages.

• An estimated 2.5 million people in 22 cholera-affected districts benefited from Government of Kenya support to respond to cholera outbreaks in terms of emergency WASH supplies, coordination, training in response and water quality testing and surveillance. This includes an estimated 1,927,500 children and women.


Children in their learning environments have access to safe WASH facilities that are secure, sanitary, and user- and gender-friendly.

• An estimated 29,950 children in their learning environments have improved access to safe water, sanitation, and hygiene facilities that are secure, sanitary, and user and gender-friendly.

3. Context and humanitarian consequences

Drought, floods and other climatic hazards Food and non-food needs have increased during the course of the year. This is due to the continuation and intensification of drought conditions throughout 2009 due to four consecutive poor rains seasons, combined with sustained high food prices and below-normal crop production. In March, following the Short Rains Assessment (SRA), an estimated 3.4 million people were identified as needing assistance. This number increased to 3.8 million in August 2009 following the Long Rains Assessment (LRA). These people are predominately pastoralists, agro-pastoralists and marginal agricultural farm households. The absence of rains has also affected parts of the Rift Valley, which is traditionally an important food production area. Returning IDPs have struggled to establish their livelihoods because of crop failures. These groups have experienced an erosion of their livelihoods due to reduced access to water and pasture, declining livestock, health conditions and a deterioration in trade. An estimated 1.5 million schoolchildren in drought-affected areas also require food assistance.

Due to the drought’s impact, a rise in acute malnutrition has been noted in most districts in Kenya. Recent nutritional survey findings indicate critical GAM levels in Turkana, Mandera, Marsabit and Samburu, where rates are above 20%. In addition, there are disquieting GAM levels in Baringo and in districts that do not usually exhibit high levels of acute malnutrition. This includes Kajiado and Kinango, where rates are now above 10%. Consequently, there are rising numbers of malnourished patients who need to be treated with adequate supplies at community and health facilities, placing additional stress on the limited resources of the MoMS and MoPHS. It is estimated that approximately 242,000 children under five are affected by moderate acute malnutrition. Approximately 39,000 are affected by severe acute malnutrition and consequently at significantly higher risk of death. As of July 2009, approximately 51,300 children under five were newly admitted into supplementary

feeding programmes and 8,400 into therapeutic feeding programmes. This represents a significant increase from last year, during which 7,400 children were admitted into therapeutic feeding programmes for the whole of 2008. However, the coverage of nutrition interventions remain below the minimum standard of 50% required to provide a demonstrable public-health impact. As of July, the ongoing supplementary feeding programme for moderately malnourished children under five and pregnant/nursing women was rolled out in semi-arid areas. Prior to the long-rains failure in 2009, the programme was active mainly in arid districts with malnutrition rates above emergency level.

Drought conditions Aug 09

In 2009, 1.3 million children benefited from WFP’s “Expanded School Meals” and the Government’s “Home-Grown School Feeding” programmes. These programmes have ensured continuity and contributed to increased school enrolment. Despite this, school dropout rates remain high in most pastoral livelihood zones. It is estimated that 10% to 20% of schoolchildren in drought-affected districts (up to 100,000 children) drop out of primary education. Poor sanitation and diminishing access to clean water continue to exacerbate the situation. Reports from humanitarian agencies indicate that some families trek up to 40 kilometres in search of water. A high concentration of animals at water points also increases the risk of livestock disease transmission. Human disease outbreaks are among the priority concerns. In northern Kenya, polio, cholera and measles outbreaks are ongoing with increasing morbidity reported, particularly among children under five. As of mid-October, 8,363 cholera cases and 188 deaths have been reported since the beginning of the year in 38 districts, with a case fatality rate of 2%. The outbreak was contained in 26 districts, but 12 districts are reporting a re-emergence. Between mid-September and mid-October, more than 4,000 cases were reported. Additional disease outbreaks would be expected with the onset of the upcoming rain season. The scarcity of water and pasture has also contributed to frequent conflict outbreaks between communities. As of September 2009, there were 242 deaths in pastoral areas as a result of resource-based conflict and cattle rustling. In some cases, large numbers of livestock are stolen and the cycle of reprisal attacks further contributes to vulnerability in these areas. At the same time, a strong likelihood of El Niño-related heightened rainfall is expected to result in flooding in some parts of the country. Cyclical episodes of localized flooding are a constant risk in Kenya, with flood-prone areas of the country experiencing regular flooding. El Niño rains are expected to lead to some displacement, loss of livelihoods, infrastructure damage, potential disease outbreaks and increased levels of malnutrition. Up to 750,000 people could be affected and require assistance, including 100,000 people possibly displaced. Furthermore, additional numbers of current beneficiaries of food assistance may become inaccessible by road in north-eastern and coastal districts. However, the increased rainfall could provide some relief in the most drought-affected parts of the country. It could also provide favourable opportunities for crop production, and pasture and browse in pastoral areas.

Flood-prone areas of Kenya

The cumulative effect of poor rain performance on vulnerable populations is expected to continue into 2010. Drought-related needs and vulnerabilities are expected to remain, despite the prospect of enhanced rainfall at the end of 2009 and the expectation of some recovery.

21


Urban vulnerability In addition to a high level of need in rural areas, the LRA also concluded that 2.5 million people in urban areas cannot meet 50% of the daily food requirements. Urban informal settlements are characterized by extremely poor living conditions and a lack or absence of basic services. The urban poor face limited opportunities for income generation and basic needs can only be met through the marketplace. Large numbers of people in informal settlements cannot afford to buy the food and essentials they need to survive. The use of harmful coping mechanisms, such as scavenging, sex work and crime is widespread. More than one-third of the urban population live in absolute poverty and there are estimates that 1.4 million people in Nairobi live below the poverty level of $2 per day. In addition, urban residents are almost twice as likely to be infected with HIV as their rural counterparts. Recent studies have shown substantial evidence of diet stress in urban informal settlements, including the reduction of meal size and frequency and a decline in dietary diversity. Public health risks, such as poor water and sanitation and environmental hazards, also affect the urban poor. Informal settlements are conducive to the rapid spread of disease, and the lack of solid waste management poses the risk of water and soil contamination. Latrine coverage in informal settlements typically is as low as one pit latrine per 150 people. The risk of insecurity is also pronounced in informal settlements, with 76% of youth unemployed and a growing presence of gangs and other powerful elements. Kenya’s rapidly growing urban population has been fuelled by the lack of sufficient land and livelihood security in rural areas. The PEV also saw a large influx of people into towns and cities. The challenge for humanitarian organizations will be to triage these needs caused by extreme urban poverty and accumulating stresses, and identify those that require an emergency response. Internal displacement The issue of internal displacement was bought to international attention by the insecurity that followed the December 2007 presidential elections. According to Government figures, 1,100 people died and more than 664,000 people were displaced in the violence. However, it is estimated that up to 300,000 people were displaced following previous political and security crises between 1992 and 2007. Of those affected by PEV, 347,418 people had resettled as of June 2009, according to MoSSP. MoSSP also states that 35,000 people remained in transit and 25,000 people have moved to land purchased by IDP self-help groups, as of the beginning of October. An unknown number of people remain displaced in urban areas. The provision of shelter assistance and compensation has contributed to the return of many IDPs. A total of 20,000 shelters have been built, which could rise to 30,000 by the end of the year. Peace and reconciliation efforts have also served to partly facilitate sustainable returns in some areas. However, outstanding problems remain. Those living in the transit sites and self-help groups await cash payments, and continue to live in poor conditions with inadequate shelter and poor access to basic services. There are also many serious legal obstacles to face in the self-help groups, where land purchases have been rushed. Protection problems including GBV and child-protection violations have also been noted in these settings. In late September, the President issued a decree requesting the MoSSP, the Ministry of Lands and the Rift Valley Provincial Administration to resettle 6,800 households who are currently living in 19 self-groups. The plan is for the Government to purchase 13,000 acres of land in the south Rift to allow each household two acres of land. This would mean that some people in the current self-help groups would move to new sites where the land is more productive. The decree allowed for a two-week planning period. In addition to those displaced by the PEV, it is estimated that up to 300,000 people may have been displaced prior to December 2007 due to previous crises since the advent of multi-party elections in 1992. These groups are almost completely unassisted. Furthermore, new threats including the Mau

22


Forest evictions and the potential for a resurgence of tensions surrounding continuing political and judicial processes threaten to trigger new displacement. This would be the result of insecurity or as a pre-emptive measure where the threat of violence is high. Past experience of emergencies in Kenya show that conflict, displacement, drought and flooding place children at a higher risk of violence, exploitation and separation,. The latter often results in the placement of children in Charitable Children’s Institutions or living as child-headed households. Therefore, directly addressing affected children’s needs, and building local and national systems to protect children remains a priority. In the search for durable solutions, many factors are outstanding. These include the need for continuing and additional peace and reconciliation initiatives, and support for re-establishing livelihoods. Peace, security and reconciliation The slow pace of progress towards national reconciliation and peace-building continue to contribute to tensions and the risk of a resurgence of violence. Fears of insecurity have continued to hamper durable solutions for some IDPs and led to pre-emptive displacement, whereby families move in anticipation of violence. However, community-level peace and reconciliation efforts are continuing with the support of community and faith-based organizations, and development organizations. These initiatives have yielded positive results in some areas and contributed to IDP return. In addition to the impacts of PEV, Kenya is also experiencing frequent outbreaks of resource-based conflict in ASAL areas. Conflicts in pastoralist areas have risen sharply, partly due to the current drought and a regular supply of weapons. Turkana, Samburu, Isiolo, Laikipia, Baringo, West Pokot, Mandera, Moyale, Marakwet and Kuria districts have been particularly affected by violent attacks, killings and cattle raids, with incidents in Turkana and West Pokot taking on a cross-border nature. Raids have led to internal displacements and contributed to the increasing number of food-insecure pastoral populations on the verge of losing their livelihoods, or forced to drop out from pastoralism.

The Somalia crisis has had multiple effects on Kenya beyond the refugee influx. Cross-border incursions by Islamic groups from Somalia and the kidnapping of three humanitarian staff in Mandera in July have hampered the humanitarian response in north-eastern Kenya. This is where humanitarian needs are among the country’s highest. The kidnapping incident led to the suspension of a number of programmes and the restriction of access to the region. Refugees During 2009, Kenya’s refugee population (including stateless people) increased from 355,600 to more than 481,738 as of October 2009. Continued arrivals could mean this number rises to more than

23


500,000 by the end of 2010. The increased numbers are largely attributable to ongoing arrivals as a result of the conflict and severe humanitarian crisis in Somalia. The population of the Dadaab camps in north-eastern Kenya has increased by 20% this year and currently stands at more than 283,400. This is three times more than the intended population of these camps. The severe overcrowding and poor conditions of the Dadaab camps are concerning humanitarian partners. With daily arrivals averaging 250 people and no prospects of an improvement in the humanitarian situation in Somalia, greater strain is expected on Dadaab’s insufficient resources. Large influxes of refugees directly increases health hazards and threaten the health and nutrition status of the populations. (The total population of Kakuma camp has been more stable in 2009 and is currently 52,600.)

Twenty years of refugee hosting has had a profound impact on areas where the camps are located. The strain of meeting the emergency demands, shelter construction and other activities has severely depleted the environment. The provision of an estimated 10 million litres of water per day has undermined the long-term prospects for sustainable water management. Furthermore, access to services provided to refugees is limited among host communities and only 15% of school-age children attend refugee schools. The continued growth of the refugee population will increase the burden on host communities.

4. THE 2010 COMMON HUMANITARIAN ACTION PLAN

4.1 Scenarios Best-case scenario Under the best-case scenario, the food security situation would be expected to improve due to better-than anticipated climatic conditions, including favourable 2009 short rains. This situation would mitigate drought conditions, food insecurity and resource-based conflicts, as agricultural crop and livestock production would improve across the country. The best-case scenario would see the regeneration of pasture and replenishment of water sources for livestock, leading to a considerable improvement of livestock body condition. In addition, reduced competition for resources would also be expected to lead to a decrease in resource-based conflicts. The timely management of emerging livestock diseases, such as peste des petits ruminants (PPR) and Rift Valley fever, would also assist in continued recovery. As a result, the livelihoods and nutrition status in drought-affected areas would be expected to improve, although high levels of malnutrition would persist in the short term. El Niño rains would lead to some localized flooding, but the humanitarian impact in terms of displacement and disease outbreak would be minimal and manageable, and appropriate preparedness measures would be in place. In addition, food and commodity prices would be expected to stabilize, preventing further escalations in humanitarian need among vulnerable populations. Improved rural livelihoods would decrease the rate of migration to urban areas. The security situation would be expected to remain stable, with some progress in the legal reform processes under the provisions of the three agenda items of the National Accord and Reconciliation Act and in Agenda Four, which address root causes of the PEV. In addition, positive steps would be made towards peace and reconciliation, contributing to the identification of durable solutions for the remaining IDPs. New displacements would be minimal or absent as potential political triggers are successfully addressed. An improvement in the political and humanitarian situation in Somalia would also result in an increase in security in border regions of Kenya and a reduced flow of refugees into the Dadaab camps. Increased security and improved water and pasture conditions in border areas would reduce cross-border conflict and cattle rustling. Worst-case scenario Under the worst-case scenario, flooding resulting from El Niño rains from October 2009 would be widespread, displacing up to 200,000 people and directly affecting 2 million in flood-prone hotspot areas. The floods would result in a loss of lives, livestock, infrastructure and crops, which in turn will increase livelihood and food insecurity in the early months of 2010. In addition, flood waters and poor sanitation conditions would contribute to the spread of human and livestock disease and malnutrition, further escalating mortality and morbidity. Diminished access to flood-affected areas and insufficient preparedness activities would significantly hamper the provision of humanitarian assistance. Some locations would remain inaccessible by road. Therefore, additional funding would be required for air operations to dispatch food and non-food items to the neediest communities marooned by floods. The rains would be followed by a period of drought (La Niña), which would limit potential recovery due to the hypothetical heightened rainfall in late 2009, and further contribute to food and livelihood insecurity. In this case, drought conditions would persist in ASAL areas and insufficient rain in productive months would lead to decreased crop production and food availability. In this scenario, the number of those in need of food and non-food humanitarian assistance would increase significantly during 2010. Further escalations in commodity prices would be expected, exacerbating existing vulnerabilities across the country, together with increasing unemployment, a further intensification in urban vulnerability and growing insecurity. Continued competition for scarce resources would be expected

25


to increase the scale and intensity of resource-based conflicts throughout the country and in border areas including the Karamoja region, the Kenya-Somali border and the Kenya-Ethiopia border region. Conflict and a worsening of the humanitarian situation in Somalia would lead to a sharp increase of refugee flows into Kenya, with a new influx of up to 200,000 during 2010. Additional strain on humanitarian resources and further congestion would lead to deteriorating conditions in the refugee camps and increased tensions between the refugee and host communities. The congestion situation could reach a critical stage if a fourth camp is still not established – all new arrivals would have to be accommodated within the existing camps that have already overstretched their limits. Political divisions would lead to resurgence in violence and new displacements. A lack of progress on legal reform processes and addressing the root causes of post-election violence would further escalate tensions and undermine peace and reconciliation. Durable solutions for IDPs would not be identified and new large-scale displacements would be triggered. Evictions from the Mau Forest and subsequent inter-community tensions could lead to the displacement of up to 200,000 people. Most likely scenario Under the most likely scenario, it is expected that floods resulting from the 2009 El Niño rains will lead to some localized displacement, loss of livelihoods, damage to crops and destruction of infrastructure. It is estimated that up to 750,000 people may require humanitarian assistance, including 100,000 who may be displaced. In addition, flooding is expected to cause damage in urban areas, particularly in informal settlements. Early recovery needs and flood-related needs, including those related to disease outbreaks and a worsening of malnutrition, would be expected to persist into the early months of 2010. In addition to those directly affected by flooding, it may be difficult to reach a number of the current beneficiaries of food assistance in coastal and north-eastern districts. Flooding is likely to affect all the refugee camps in Dadaab, making it difficult to assess the camps and their facilities. At the same time, some recovery would be expected due to heavy rain in ASAL and agricultural areas. This would lead to the replenishment of pasture, gradual improvement of livestock body condition and favourable growing conditions for farmers. This is expected to contribute to positive harvest prospects, lower food prices, improved access to food (including among vulnerable urban populations) and better terms of trade for pastoralists. An increase in pasture and water would also contribute to reduced in-country and cross-border resource-based conflicts. However, despite some short recovery persistent drought conditions are likely in some parts of the country, given the cumulative effect of consecutive poor rains. Additionally, a La Niña (drought) episode could follow the El Niño conditions. These conditions would be expected to lead to scarcity of resources in some ASAL areas, and continued food and livelihood insecurity. Resource-based conflicts including cattle rustling would be expected to continue. The most likely scenario also anticipates continued migration to urban areas and growing vulnerabilities in urban informal settlements. This is expected to contribute to the continuation of the trend towards increased crime, high-risk behaviour and sexual violence, particularly against women and children. The continuation of the conflict and humanitarian crisis in Somalia is expected to lead to ongoing population movements into Kenya, requiring concerted efforts for camp decongestion and the allocation of new land to accommodate the new influxes. Refugee arrivals are expected to continue at a rate of 250 per day. Insecurity, banditry and the proliferation of small arms are expected to continue in northern and eastern parts of Kenya in particular, but also affect other parts of the country. Ongoing cross-border movements will contribute to the risk of disease outbreaks. The coalition government would remain intact, with no major changes in 2010. Peace and reconciliation efforts and legal reforms would continue to make slow progress. Shelter assistance and compensation for IDPs who remain in transit sites are expected to continue, but widespread durable solutions are not expected. A high risk of conflict and displacement remains, with potential triggers including the Mau Forest evictions, possible International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutions and key political processes such as the issue of constitutional review.

26


4.2 Strategic objectives for humanitarian action in 2010 Humanitarian partners have worked together to develop a common humanitarian strategy based on the analysis of the context, humanitarian needs and projected scenarios for the coming year. As a basis for the specific sector response plans, overarching strategic priorities have been identified to support effective and timely assistance to populations in need in Kenya. The overall strategic objectives for 2010 are to: • Attain national and international standards in the provision of timely humanitarian assistance

and protection to all vulnerable groups affected by emergencies. • Achieve an aligned and inclusive coordination environment, and strengthen linkages between

sectoral, national and sub-national coordination structures. • Improve monitoring and information management to influence decision-making and effective

humanitarian action. • Integrate Disaster Risk Reduction approaches and early recovery into humanitarian action to

improve preparedness, enhance resilience to shocks and ensure linkages to development priorities.

4.3 Strategic monitoring plan To monitor the progress against the EHRP, humanitarian partners will periodically review the context and implementation of response plans against the stated objectives. This will be carried out under the leadership of the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) and with the support of sector leads. Monthly inter-sector meetings will allow for regular exchange on overall progress with the plan, including funding levels and issues related to sector implementation. Sector-specific meetings will also include a period review of individual sector plans. In addition, OCHA will produce monthly funding analyses to track funding trends and highlight critical response gaps (drawing on data updated continuously on line, on FTS). A formal and systematic review of the EHRP will take place at the mid-year point in line with the global CAP cycle. The logical framework for monitoring the EHRP appears below.

4.4 Criteria for selection and prioritization of projects A. SELECTION The following criteria have been agreed as the minimum requirements for projects to be included under the 2010 Emergency Humanitarian Response Plan. • The project should be consistent with the cluster/sector strategy and priorities and must

contribute towards the attainment of one or more of the overall strategic priorities. • The project should present a clear target in the specified operational areas and should not

duplicate activities implemented by other organizations. • The implementing agency should have a recognized capacity to implement the project. • The appealing organization should be part of existing coordination structures (clusters/sector

working groups). • The implementation of the project or part thereof must be feasible within the 12-month

timeframe. • The projects must be cost-effective in terms of the number of beneficiaries and the needs to

which the project intends to respond. B. PRIORITIZATION In order to prioritize the most urgent activities under the EHRP, the projects have been reviewed against four criteria to determine whether they are ‘high’ or ‘medium’ priority. The criteria are as follows:

• Does the project target beneficiaries in need of urgent humanitarian assistance? • Are the needs that the project plans to address confirmed by a needs assessment? • Does the project have the potential to build resilience and reduce vulnerability? • Is the project judged to be technically sound and able to deliver successful outcomes within a

12-month period?

In addition to the general criteria outlined above, in some cases additional sector-specific criteria have been used to prioritize projects.

Needs Analysis The expected 2009 long rain season maize production is estimated at 1.08 million tonnes, as compared with the short‐term average of 1.6 million. The food security situation is further complicated by the continued export bans in the neighbouring countries of Tanzania and Uganda. This is likely to reduce cross-border maize inflows by 46%. Furthermore, high food prices persist throughout the country with the average price of maize at 100-130% above normal. As a result, terms of trade of pastoralists, agro-pastoralists and marginal agriculture farmers and the purchasing power of urban households have deteriorated significantly. More than 70% of Kenya’s population are net buyers of maize - the main and preferred food crop.

34



In the marginal agricultural lands, and the semi-arid and arid lands, the rains have performed poorly in the last three seasons. The result is a significant decline of crop production, pastures and browses. The heavy emphasis on maize production rather than more drought-resistant crops, combined with the reliance on rain-fed agriculture, has made households in these areas even more dependent on rain-fed agriculture. In the ASAL regions, the level of conflict has risen during the last months due to increased scarcity of pastures and water. Trekking distances have extended to 40 kilometres for cattle and camels, and more than 25 kilometres for sheep and goats in many pastoral areas, compared with 10‐15 kilometres and 10 kilometres respectively in normal seasons. Boreholes, which are the main remaining sources of water, are reportedly running for 18 to 24 hours, rather than the usual eight hours per day, because of the long queues, leading to frequent breakdowns. Subsequently, animals are watering once in three days instead of every day. This causes further deterioration in their health and body conditions, and increases the likelihood of slowed recovery in the event of above-normal short rains.

On the district and household level, the food security situation has degenerated due to bad rains, the remaining effects of the post-election problems and high food prices. Furthermore, Kenya’s food security situation is precarious at best, as more structural, long-term issues are affecting the outputs, such as poor infrastructure, inefficient market competition, inefficient agricultural extension systems and general governance issues. The expected heavy rains may initially increase livestock mortality, due to their weakened state caused by several successive failed rainy seasons, adding to drought‐related livestock mortality. Heavy rains in the Rift Valley highlands could also cause significant pre‐ and post-harvest losses, as rains are anticipated to continue into the tail end of the harvesting period in January. However, in the marginal lands, which rely most on the short rain season, the rains are an opportunity for restoration of livelihoods, provided that the farmers have timely access to seeds and other inputs. Many have depleted their own resources as a result of the droughts and have little purchasing power to access to resources through the market. The above section has been derived from the Long Rain Assessment. This was conducted in July 2009 by the Government of Kenya, in cooperation with FAO, WFP, FEWSNET and other stakeholders, and from up-dates from FEWSNET. Objectives 1. Support Government of Kenya and, more specifically, the Ministries of Special Programmes,

Development of Northern Kenya and Other Arid Lands, Livestock Development and Agriculture in coordinating humanitarian food security interventions, including the effective development of Food Security Information and Early Warning Systems.

2. Support effective participation of the sector ministries in grassroots level priority setting, preparedness and response planning through effective participation in District Steering Group meetings.

3. Protect and rebuild livestock assets of drought-affected communities through activities such as disease surveillance and control, fodder production, providing training on issues relating to resilience and restocking with relevant species.

35


4. Help drought-affected vulnerable small-scale farmers to rebuild their livelihoods by taking advantage of the expected good rains after successive dry seasons, through interventions such as the distribution of drought-resistant crop varieties, farm inputs and training to help farmers use improved technologies.

5. Increase the resilience of vulnerable communities through the provision of productive assets in FFW or cash interventions or other activities to improve water harvesting and construction of soil and water conservation structures.

Indicators • Humanitarian actions are well coordinated and sufficient information on food security and

planned/implemented humanitarian actions is available. • Interventions to drought-affected pastoralist communities follow the standards of LEGS and

drought cycle management. • Interventions should ensure an increase in communities’ resilience to drought. • Interventions focus on increasing the production of drought-resistant crops in marginal and

semi- arid areas. Beneficiaries: Vulnerable small-scale farmers and agro-pastoralists in marginal lands and vulnerable pastoralists (70% most poor used as criteria in Kenya while other countries often use Tuft University’s vulnerability index). Sector Monitoring Plan The coordination structures of the government will, together with UN agencies and other stakeholders, have the overall responsibility to plan and follow up on humanitarian food security interventions conducted in the country. At the district level, the District Steering Groups in arid or semi-arid regions or similar coordinating bodies in other parts of the country regularly monitor the food security situation and coordinate humanitarian actions. In the coming year, there will also be more focus on sharing experiences among humanitarian partners.

Throughout the course of 2009, the eleven clusters designated following the outbreak of PEV have continued and completed their transition into sector working groups with co-leadership from the Government of Kenya and UN agencies. In August, the Government of Kenya revealed the new national coordination arrangements for emergency response. The new Government of Kenya structure aims to provide an inclusive multi-sector approach which links existing sectoral arrangements to centralized coordination. In the coming months, humanitarian partners will work together to ensure that the necessary linkages and systems are put in place to support the effective functioning of the new national coordination arrangements. With the decreasing presence of international organizations in PEV-affected areas and shifting emphasis towards vulnerable drought-affected districts in the ASALs, coordination efforts have focused on providing wider and more flexible country coverage. This has included strengthening linkages with district level coordination structures and developing networks of partners operating in the field. At the sector level coordination is undertaken by the joint leadership of technical ministries and departments of the Government of Kenya, UN organizations and the Red Cross Society of Kenya. The support provided by sector lead organizations is outlined within the technical sector work plans. In 2010, efforts towards an aligned and harmonized coordination system both at national and sub-national levels will continue. In addition an ongoing emphasis on partnerships and building networks will facilitate a stronger understanding of the humanitarian context and operating environment. NGO and Government contacts will form a backbone to monitoring the humanitarian situation, coordinating response, and strengthening reciprocal information flow between national and field level. These

37




partnerships will also be extended to include actors not traditionally involved in humanitarian action to ensure a better incorporation of disaster risk reduction and resilience-building approaches, and to strengthen the linkage with development priorities. Integrated within coordination is the need for continued support to information-gathering, analysis and dissemination in order to facilitate decision-making, to highlight needs and gaps, and to strengthen preparedness and response. Efforts towards continued development of information management for humanitarian action will continue at both a sector and inter-sector level. Objectives 1. Government of Kenya and technical sectors supported to attain harmonized and effective

coordination structures at national and sub-national level. 2. Improved availability, and analysis, of information to facilitate decision-making. 3. The profile of emerging, unrecognized or unmet needs rose with relevant stakeholders. 4. Preparedness and timely response facilitated through inclusive coordination and more

predictable financing. 5. Strengthened linkages with development actors and incorporation of disaster risk reduction

approaches. Indicators • Inter-sector and sector coordination effectively functioning at national and sub-national level. • A greater uptake of information for use in decision-making. • Preparedness plans in place and operationalized for predictable emergencies such as floods

and drought. • Greater equity in the allocation of resources between sectors and emergencies. • Greater participation of development actors in humanitarian strategies and coordination. Sector Monitoring Plan The Coordination Sector response plan will be monitored through inter-agency fora and participation in the overall monitoring plan of the EHPR. Monthly inter-sector meetings and IASC consultations will allow for the monitoring of coordination at the sector and inter-sector level. OCHA field staff will also provide regular update on coordination at the sub-national level. Furthermore OCHA will continue to issue bi-weekly humanitarian updates as well as monthly humanitarian funding analyses which will provide a continuous analysis of needs, response and financing trends.

Needs Analysis 1. Strengthen conflict mitigation structures and promote peace and reconciliation at local and

national levels. While remarkable progress towards normality and peace has been made following the PEV, underlying tensions need to be addressed. In the ASAL areas, resource-based violence continues to break out, affecting lives and livelihoods. While the process of enactment of a national policy on peace-building and conflict management is ongoing, DPCs and several supporting institutions continue to need to support to carry on with their activities. 2. Rehabilitation of livelihoods for communities affected by natural disasters and conflicts. The failure of the rains over several consecutive seasons has harmed livelihoods, even in the major grain-producing areas of the country. According to the meteorological forecasts, it is likely that heavy rains over the period November 2009 - February 2010 will cause floods and related natural disasters. In the arid and semi-arid parts of the country, the impact of livestock losses during the prolonged drought will probably result in increased needs for support to rebuild livelihoods systems. Overall the global increase in food prices, disruptions in food production and distribution, may result in increased nutritional stress among the urban poor, the displaced and the arid and semi-arid areas.

39


3. To enhance development of Disaster Risk Reduction planning and implementation of strategies at the community level.

While floods, droughts and other natural disaster regularly affect communities across the country, the level of preparedness and responses are still very low. A number of organizations are involved in disaster reduction interventions at community level, but these need to be harmonized to achieve greater coherence and impact, and local governance structures need to be capacitated for increased up take of technical innovations. 4. Ensure provision of durable shelter for communities affected by natural disasters and conflicts. Due to loss of shelter from both the PEV and resource-based conflicts and the probable impact of the anticipated heavy rains, there is a need to provide durable shelter. Objectives 1. Enhance and support conflict mitigation structures at the local and national levels to contribute

towards reduction of ethnic tensions and resource-based conflicts as well as to foster national healing.

2. To contribute towards rehabilitation of livelihoods for populations, including the urban poor, affected by natural disasters (e.g. enhanced rain, drought), conflicts and emerging crises.

3. To harmonize disaster preparedness and disaster response plans at the community level. 4. To support early warning and response mechanisms at the community level. 5. To facilitate provision of durable shelter for populations affected by natural disasters and

conflicts. Indicators • Number of active and effective DPCs. • Number of affected populations identified and assisted in livelihoods recovery. • Number of harmonized disaster preparedness and response plans for floods displacement and

drought developed at the community level. • An increase in timeliness of effective response to early warnings among communities in

identified vulnerable areas. • Assistance provided for durable shelter needs for affected communities. Table of Proposed Area Coverage per Site

Education Sector Needs Analysis Kenya has recently been affected by food insecurity and the impact on education has been severe. According to the 2009 Long Rains Season Assessment Report 1.5 million schoolchildren are in need of food assistance. However, despite this, it is estimated that about 100,000 children (according to the LRA 2009) in drought-affected areas have dropped out of school as a result of the current crisis. The reasons are varied as more children are being involved in casual labour such as sale of water, burning charcoal, and selling firewood to support families sometimes exposing themselves to abuse and exploitation. A recent rapid assessment carried out by the MoE establishes that an estimated 40,000 children will be further affected as potential displacements may take place when families are evicted from water catchments areas.

Most of the affected areas in the ASAL districts normally face education challenges and show very low enrolment and low retention rates even under normal situations when compared to the national average. The North Eastern province for example records the lowest net enrolment rate of the eight provinces which is only 36.9% while the national average stands at 92.5% (MoE 2008 data). The completion rate equality remains very low for the province at 36% compared to the national average of 79.5% (MoE 2008 data).

The floods will have a huge impact on education as it is anticipated to occur during the third school term. School infrastructure will be damaged and even entire schools premises become submerged in flood water. It is expected that classrooms will be destroyed and learning materials lost thus disrupting learning in affected schools. The Education Sector estimates that 300,000 schoolchildren will be affected by the El Niño-related floods and or landslides. This will be in addition to the 1.3 million schoolchildren being supported by the Government and WFP. Table 1: Estimated number of affected school-age children

Overall the estimated school-age population who will be affected by the emergency will be two million as the table above illustrates. The emergency education support will therefore seek interventions such as the continuation of school feeding for the remaining number of school days and increased access to food, water, hygiene, and sanitation facilities for school-age children during the emergency. In addition, timely information needs to be gathered on the number of children, teachers and school facilities for effective responses. The coordination mechanism both at national and district levels have to be strengthened for effective functioning of the Education Cluster. Education Response Objectives 1. All school-aged boys and girls affected by the emergency have access to quality and relevant

education opportunities, in a safe learning environment that promotes the protection and mental and emotional well-being of learners.

2. Capacity development of the education system strengthened at both national and local levels to effectively respond to education in emergencies.

3. The education sector is coordinated among key development partners both local and international with clear linkage to multi sectoral interventions.

Strategies will include: • Assessments - the education cluster will continue to conduct assessments on the impact of the

emergency on education, schools and children to enable targeted and strategic follow up of identified needs.

• Advocacy - the Education Sector will advocate among key stakeholders including the school management committees and the communities and to be able to effectively manage the effects of the expected long rains and floods and ensure that children’s right to education even during emergency is fulfilled.

• Expanded school feeding programme to reach all children affected by the various emergencies. • Provision of educational supplies: temporary classrooms (tents where needed) and

teaching/learning materials including education kits and recreational kits where necessary reaching over 50,000 schoolchildren.

• Improving the learning environment in the classroom through interventions of child-friendly schools principles and institutionalization of students’ participation in school governance.

• Capacity Development: the Education Cluster will continue to support coordination of the emergency response and in monitoring and evaluation of the interventions through existing national coordination mechanisms and as well as provide capacity-building training for national and district level education officers on education in emergencies and disaster risk reduction training over 250 education officers for enhanced resilience at the local levels.

• Improve systems for the tracking and monitoring of children between schools through the use and reinforcement of the national collection and retrieval system of the EMIS in the MoE.

Indicators • The number of children continuing their education in a safe environment. • The proportion of functioning schools with school feeding programmes and adequate water and

sanitation facilities. • The number of education officers with knowledge of education in emergencies and running

effective emergency groups in the districts. • Availability of timely and updated information that informs effective emergency responses. • Availability of textbooks and learning materials in the schools.

Under the MoE, the emergency education sector group will coordinate efforts of key education actors and will ensure on the following activities: • Continue to update information and share among partners. • Support and guide assessment tools and reports for harmonization among the sector groups. • Provide essential education supplies that include tents, education and recreation kits, training

for teachers and school managers.

42


• Provide relevant training for key stakeholders including teachers and school management committees.

• Advocate peace and flexible policies in favour of children (i.e. regarding uniforms and learning materials).

• Coordinate and regularly hold meetings and carry out joint monitoring on a quarterly basis.

Sector Monitoring Plan The Education Sector will meet regularly with meetings held on a monthly basis. Information about who is doing what and where will be communicated among the key partners and information and experiences shared. The Education Sector will continue to participate and benefit from the annual SRAs and LRAs. Inter-agency assessments will be initiated to inform the sector on the needs and response gaps to complement the joint monitoring quarterly field trips within the year.

The Home-Grown School Feeding programme led by the Government of Kenya will target an additional one million schoolchildren. Needs Analysis The sector will focus on: • Populations in ASAL areas affected by production failure (crop and livestock) due to successive

drought, disease and conflict. • Populations with reduced or failed capacity to purchase adequate quantity and quality of food

from the market due to deteriorating terms of trade, high food prices and lack of employment/income opportunities.

• Pastoralists and ex-pastoralists (those who lost their livelihood). • Urban poor. Objectives 1. Meet the immediate gaps in household food security for targeted vulnerable households. 2. Enhance communities’ resilience to shocks through coordination and integration of food

interventions with safety nets and livelihood support systems. 3. Pilot innovative delivery/procurement methods to promote production and market functions and

provide evidence for replication and policy development. 4. Improve the selection of response instruments in alignment with the situation to promote

resilience and sustain livelihoods. Indicators • Number of people supported by food assistance. • Number of assets created (water harvesting, irrigation, etc). • Walking distance to water sources reduced for (number) households. • Quantity (MT) of food purchased from small farm holders. • At least 70% of target beneficiaries able to meet immediate household food needs. • At least 10% of targeted beneficiaries indicate stability or improvement in livelihood security

against baseline over 12 months. • Number of organizations adopting innovative approaches. • Number of projects or micro-projects using multi-instruments.

Sector Monitoring Plan WFP will use the existing monitoring systems both for distribution and post-distribution monitoring. Based on the recommendations of the 2007 evaluation these systems are being further refined. This will ensure that data are collected to monitor progress in achieving operational objectives, and that the data analysis and reporting is used for corrective actions in programming. Distribution and post-distribution monitoring will also be carried out by WFP and cooperating partners. The objective of this monitoring will be to ensure standards are adhered to and errors are promptly corrected. WFP continues to collaborate with NGO partners and government counterparts to collect quantitative and qualitative information on the effects of the relief interventions on the food security of beneficiaries. Distribution and post-distribution monitoring and reporting will be done monthly. Household surveys assessing the post-distribution effects of food distributions will be conducted twice annually, in advance of the rains assessments. Nutritional information will be collected by MoH, NGOs, and Arid Lands Resource Management Project (ALRMP) in the pastoral areas. WFP has established a monitoring system which enumerates timeliness and quantity of food distributed; the number of beneficiaries by gender, and the gender composition and role of women in the relief committees. WFP enumerators collect monitoring data on the food security situation and on the use of WFP food assistance. Logistics commodity tracking system (CTS) assistants collect and provide information on the arrival and distribution of commodities, storage conditions/capacity at the extended delivery points (EDPs), and update on road accessibility to facilitate proper planning of delivery of commodities to the EDPs and final distribution points (FDPs).

Kenya has been experiencing and consequently responding to protracted natural and man-made disasters over the last three years – severe drought, mass displacement of people including IDPs and influx of Somali refugees, inter-ethic conflicts, disease outbreaks, mass casualty disasters – and is now being threatened with El Niño floods. There is acute water shortage leading to poor sanitation and hygiene practices which are major risk factors for outbreak of acute waterborne diseases including cholera. There had been cholera outbreak in the country since January 2009. As at mid-October 2009, a total of 8,363 cholera cases with 188 deaths have so far been recorded in 38 districts with a case fatality rate of 2%. Similarly, over 1249 cases of dysentery with three deaths have also been reported. There is re-emergence of the cholera outbreaks in the same areas where the disease was earlier controlled, also as a result of prolonged droughts and the ensuing water scarcity and poor hygiene and sanitation practices. There is also an outbreak of kala azar, measles, and poliomyelitis in the ASALs, all complicating the already precarious situation. HIV prevalence remains high, with a national prevalence average of 7.8%. The country has also confirmed 417 cases of influenza A H1N1 with thousands infected. These outbreaks will be exacerbated by the onset of El Niño rains. In addition and according to the Kenya LRA conducted in August 2009, there are ten million people at risk of famine, and another 3.8 million receiving humanitarian food assistance, a consequence of prolonged droughts which will also lower immunity to communicable diseases and major disease outbreaks thus increasing the public health risk. The El Niño phenomenon, which is expected to cause above-normal rainfalls in North Eastern Province (NEP), Coast and the lake regions will further damage the health infrastructure, safe water and sanitation facilities, and create poor hygiene conditions particularly, and establish conditions

46



conducive for vector-borne diseases (malaria and Rift Valley fever especially) and other communicable diseases. The MoPH&S has already issued a high alert for Rift Valley fever outbreak. The key interventions for 2010 will cover the high-risk areas in the ASALs and those regions with underlying or prevailing emergency or disaster conditions and threats such as North Eastern Province, Coast, Western, Nyanza, North Rift Valley, and informal urban settlements, including Kibera in Nairobi. Priority will also be given to the most vulnerable groups including women and children, elderly, and those with special health challenges. WHO and partners have been supporting the Government to respond to these emergencies. These project proposals are designed to support WHO and Health Sector partners carry out their humanitarian functions.

Needs Analysis As per UNHCR internal statistics (14/10/2009), Dadaab and Kakuma refugee camps are currently home to 331,738 refugees. On average, the number of new arrivals during 2009 has been 7,000 per month in Dadaab while Kakuma has received 14,000 relocated refugees from Dadaab. The camps in Dadaab are severely congested and humanitarian agencies operating in Dadaab are feeling the effects of the influx. In the meantime, refugees who continue to live in insecure and less than dignified conditions are bearing the brunt of the overcrowding.

The percentage of refugees with adequate and appropriate shelter in Dadaab is 11% in Hagadera, 13% in Ifo and 18% in Dagahaley camps. The construction of additional shelter is therefore very important although space for the construction remains a major challenge. In Kakuma too there is shelter congestion and a requirement for an additional 12,800 new shelters to cater for new arrivals and refugees who have hitherto lacked shelters. The lack of shelter is evidenced by the number of days new arrivals stay at the reception centres waiting to be moved to a new plot with new shelter. In some cases this has taken as long as five months. This is more pronounced among the Somali nationals most of whom are new arrivals. A WFP/UNHCR Joint Nutrition Mission conducted in October 2008 concluded that the situation in the camps was far below minimum standards and that the prevalent levels of malnutrition were, in part, a result of the poor provision of essential goods and services. It was recommended that refugees be provided with more complementary foods in order to further reduce the SAM and GAM rates. While the GAM and SAM have significantly improved between 2007 and 2008 due to a multi-pronged initiative launched by UNHCR and partners in 2007, the levels remain worse than international standards (on average 11% and 9% in Dadaab and Kakuma respectively) and still call for sustained interventions. The better picture depicted by the 2008 and 2009 statistics is attributed to increased resource allocation for nutrition, health and NFIs to the programme as well as the inter-agency community mobilization efforts in the areas of child feeding, health-seeking behaviour and best personal hygiene practices. However, despite the significant improvement, the level of malnutrition among under-fives remained alarmingly high and therefore necessitates interventions to reduce those levels. The diversification of food basket, stable supply of food by WFP, and the provision of complementary food and NFIs by UNHCR and partners have resulted in remarkable declines in the sale of food rations – further contributing to improved nutrition status. Provision of energy-saving stoves has helped to improve food preparations although shortage of funds limited the smooth supply of firewood. Health The health situation among the refugees also leaves a lot to be desired and requires the intervention of all stakeholders. On average, there is one health facility for every 16,000 refugees which is much lower than international standards (1:10,000 refugees). Therefore, the need to close the gap between the reality on the ground and the internationally acceptable standards cannot be overemphasized. Water and Sanitation While the water supply in Kakuma is above international standards (28.8 litres per person per day or l/p/d), Dadaab continues to experience substantial constraints in supplying sufficient water. Overall, the amount of water supplied is 10 l/p/d across the three camps (Ifo, Hagadera, and Dagahaley). The situation has not been sufficiently contained due to the large influxes during 2008 and 2009. The latrine coverage in Dadaab remains at a very low 20 - 28 people per latrine with a gap of about 40,000 latrines existing. Furthermore, this gap worsens after the long rains and flooding which leads to filling and massive destruction of latrines. Kakuma on the other hand has a gap of 3,000 latrines. In keeping with the protracted nature of the refugee situation in Dadaab and Kakuma, as well as the predictable increases in the refugee population from time to time, UNHCR jointly with partners aims to address these chronic gaps through a more holistic approach, by providing a comprehensive package of relief assistance, and ensuring that essential food and NFIs as well as critical health, nutrition, water and sanitation services are adequately provided, in order to: • Break the cycle of malnutrition and diseases in the camps. • Ensure that refugees live a hygienic life and are safer from water-borne diseases.

50


• Ensure that the hygiene and sanitation regime is improved in a sustainable and durable manner.

• Ensure that refugees have adequate and secure shelter and that clean and safe water is provided in adequate amounts.

Objectives Food Assistance and Nutrition 1. All refugees are provided with adequate and appropriate food to meet the minimum nutritional

requirements. 2. Prevent and address acute malnutrition and associated mortality and morbidity in children and

mothers. Shelter and NFI 3. All refugees have adequate appropriate and secure shelter and are provided with and NFI kit. WASH 4. All refugees have access to safe, adequate, portable, and clean water. 5. All refugees have access to adequate and secure sanitation facilities and practice best hygiene

practice. Health 6. All refugees have access to basic health care. Education 7. There is access to education for all refugees of school-going age. Host Community 8. Timely and effective development assistance channelled to host populations. Protection 9. All refugees are legally protected in accordance with Kenyan and international standards. 10. Refugee camps are organized in a systematic well structured and well coordinated manner for

increased access, safety and efficiency. Indicators Indicator 1 – Sanitation & Hygiene: UNHCR will, through partners (LWF and IRC in Dadaab and Kakuma), construct an additional 40,000 latrines in the camps. UNHCR plans to advocate with partners integrated sanitation and hygiene promotion programmes to enhance best hygiene practice. It is anticipated that by the end of the year, at least 70% of latrines recipients should practice best hygiene including washing hands before and after eating and after use of latrines, bathing at least once a day, and cleaning their sanitation facilities among others. In Kakuma it is planned to construct 3,000 additional latrines for both existing refugees and new arrivals. Indicators 2 – Water: UNHCR plans to increase the amount of water being supplied from the current 13 l/p/d in Dadaab to at least 20 l/p/d by increasing pumping hours and putting in place more boreholes. One borehole will be constructed in Kakuma refugee camp and three elevated tanks installed in the Dadaab complex (two in Hagadera and one in Dagahaley) through contractual services. UNHCR will procure water equipment for the establishment of the borehole and the tanks. In Kakuma, it is planned to maintain the current water supply of 28.8 litres per person per day. Indicators 3 – Health and Nutrition: UNHCR will procure 3,200 MTs of groundnuts and another 3,200 MTs of green gram to provide refugees with complementary food to improve access to micronutrients in the regular food basket. This will be distributed by implementing partners (CARE in

51


Dadaab and LWF in Kakuma). In addition, it is planned to increase the ratio of health centres to at least one for every 10,000 refugees. Finally nutrition interventions will aim to ensure that 90% of children and mothers affected by acute malnutrition have accessed to treatment meeting international standards. Indicators 4 – Shelter and NFIs: It is planned to allocate funds for 40,000 shelters to be constructed with community participation through a construction implementing partner (DRC). Furthermore, UNHCR will procure non-food household items for an estimated 70,000 families including kitchen sets, stoves, soap, jerrycans, and mosquito nets. These items as well as funds for the necessary logistical support will be provided to UNHCR implementing partners for distribution. Indicator 5 – Camp Management: Camps are structured in such a way that all refugees have residential addresses, and are systematically and properly organized. Expected Outcomes The key outputs will be: • Increased number of latrines throughout the camps, with a reduction in communicable diseases

and/or hygiene-related diseases. • Increased quantity and quality of water, to reduce water-borne diseases, with a view to

achieving the minimum international standards through increase of water supply capacity. • Reduced GAM and SAM rates. • Reduced micronutrients deficiencies and specially relating to anaemia in children, pregnant, and

lactating mothers. • Improved and increased number of shelters to improve housing conditions in the camps, in view

of limiting the exposure of refugees to health and environment hazards. • Reduction of risks to SGBV. • Marked reduction in food being sold to neighbouring communities in order to acquire basic

household needs. • Enhanced provision of specific NFIs. • Improved nutrition and reduction of sexual exploitation and abuse. • Improved household food security. Table of Proposed Area Coverage per Site

Indirect beneficiaries, women 750,000 750,000 750,000 Needs Analysis and Priorities Deteriorating household food security has contributed to a rise in acute malnutrition in most districts of Kenya. Nutritional survey findings indicate that levels of GAM are critical in Turkana, Mandera, Marsabit, Wajir, and Samburu where rates are above 20% (<-2 z-scores, WHO, 2006). In addition, levels of GAM are rising in districts traditionally not affected by high levels of acute malnutrition such as Kajiado and Kinango where rates are now above 10% (< -2 z-scores, WHO 2006) compared to 5-6% in previous years. Consequently, caseloads of acutely malnourished children that need immediate treatment continue to rise at community and health facility levels, stressing further the already limited resources of the MoMs and MoPH&S. It is estimated that about 242,000 children under five are currently affected by moderate acute malnutrition and about 39,000 are affected by severe acute malnutrition. This is expected to increase further with the predicted enhanced rains (El Niño) and subsequent failed long rains. As of July 2009 about 51,300 children under five had been admitted into supplementary feeding programmes and about 8,400 into therapeutic feeding programmes. This represents a significant increase from last year where the total number of children admitted in therapeutic feeding programmes was about 7,400 for the whole 2008. However, the coverage of nutrition interventions still remains below the minimum standards of 50% to have a significant effect at population level. Based on the above, the Nutrition Sector needs to continue its efforts towards scaling up critical nutrition interventions at health facility and community levels to prevent associated morbidities and mortality in children. While life-saving interventions are crucial, it is essential that the Nutrition Sector consider other sets of interventions that will prevent the deterioration of the nutritional status of women and children and will contribute to reducing caseloads of acute malnutrition. Finally, in order to ensure

53



timely and coordinated high-impact interventions the nutrition sector will need to focus on strengthening coordination mechanisms at sub-national level as well as nutrition surveillance and information management. Strategy The Nutrition Sector’s main strategy is to support MoPH&S/MoMS in implementing critical nutrition interventions at health facility and community level and achieve adequate coverage. The response will be primarily undertaken through MoPH&S/MoMS with full support of NGO partners, WFP, and UNICEF. Objectives a) Contribute to the reduction of morbidity and mortality through managing acute malnutrition as

per national standards at community and health facility levels to affected populations, including urban poor.

b) Avert deterioration of the nutrition status of children and mothers through preventive nutrition interventions at health facility and community level.

c) Strengthen nutrition information and surveillance systems for improved monitoring as well as decision-making and timely response.

d) Strengthen nutrition coordination mechanisms at sub national levels. Indicators a) % of acutely malnourished children and mothers accessing quality treatment at health facility

and community levels. b) % of acutely malnourished children and mothers that are cured. c) Number of health facilities implementing preventive nutrition actions e.g. support and protection

to infant and young child feeding practices, micronutrient supplementation to children and mothers, promotion of hand washing.

d) % of districts sending complete monthly nutrition reports, including Integrated Management of Acute Malnutrition reports, at national and sub-national levels.

e) Implementation of action points from monthly/quarterly nutrition coordination meetings at district/provincial levels.

IDPs and returnees 300,000 120,000 180,000 300,000 120,000 180,000 Needs Analysis In June 2009, the MoSSP announced that nearly 650,000 people had been displaced as a result of the PEV of January 2008 and that 347,000 people had been re-settled up to that time. The violence had led to 1,100 deaths with more than 78,000 houses destroyed or damaged. The violence destroyed livelihoods and food security in the Rift Valley, which is one of Kenya’s most productive regions. Moreover, a historical caseload of approximately 300,000 IDPs, who pre-date the post-election violence of 2008, have suffered from a legacy of neglect and disinterest from Government and development agencies. Although approximately four IDP camps remain (though not necessarily officially recognized), more than 25,000 people live in just over 20 “self-help groups,” with the majority still in tents. Furthermore, although the MoSSP believes there are approximately 35,000 IDPs left in 40 transit sites, some civil society organizations put the figure at 60,000 IDPs or more. Many of these people still reside in tents. Access to services for the self-help group population is extremely poor, with long distances to clinics, schools and water points. Many groups face the threat of potential eviction as they have not fully paid for their purchased land. Many individuals in families in the self-help groups are subject to severe GBV and child abuse. The security and safety of the re-integration process is questionable, with returned IDPs in the Rift Valley facing renewed threats and intimidation from their neighbours. As yet, there are no immediately

55



available durable solutions for between 60,000 and 80,000 IDPs living in self-help groups and transit sites, and an unknown number of IDPs in urban areas. Tens of thousands of IDPs have still not received cash payments and there are grave concerns that there are not sufficient funds to pay all IDPs. Many of the current self-help groups are sited in areas prone to flooding. These groups still require humanitarian assistance. Conditions may, however, improve as a Presidential Decree promulgated in late September has requested the Ministry of Lands, the Ministry of Special Programmes and the Rift Valley Provincial Administration to purchase 13,000 acres of more productive land in order to resettle 6,800 households from 19 self-help groups. Each household would be given two acres of land each. Service provision and shelter construction in these new settlement areas will take some time to be established and there are already concerns about hostility from neighbouring communities in regards to these new settlements. There are a number of potential protection threats in late 2009-10. 100,000 people could be temporarily displaced by severe flooding in late 2009 and the impact of this displacement would still be felt in the first quarter of 2010. Protection interventions will be required to minimize the effects of displacement on women and children particularly, and other groups who have special needs. Moreover, political and judicial processes in late 2009 and in 2010, including the eviction of a potential 40,000 Mau Forest settlers, the naming of suspects to be prosecuted by the International Criminal Court and the constitutional reform process may lead to politically instigated violence and ethnic conflict potentially creating new displacement. Additionally, chronic conflict in the pastoralist areas will lead to a loss of lives, a loss of livestock and will also cause displacement. Effective protection must “encompass all activities at achieving the full rights of the individual in accordance with the letter and spirit of the relevant bodies of law (human rights, humanitarian and refugee law”. (IASC definition). In view of the needs of the current IDPs and the potential threats of new displacement, a set of priority needs must be considered. These are: • Prevent the separation of children from their families, and where necessary re-unify families as

the result of natural disaster and conflict. • Protect and prepare information (including information on sexual offences and separated

children) that should be disseminated before the onset, during, and after, natural disasters and conflict, particularly where displacement has occurred or may occur.

• Prompt response to the medical, psycho-social, legal, and security needs of survivors of sexual violence or sexual offences.

• Coordinate with other sectors to ensure protection for inherently vulnerable groups, such as older people, people with disabilities, women (i.e. widows and single mothers), and children (i.e. orphans, separated children, child-headed households).

• Establish protection monitoring in areas of potential displacement and crisis with a view to taking effective protective action.

Objectives In relation to the sector priority needs a set of objectives to be attained are: • Objective 1: Reduce occurrence of family separation, with particular focus on the reunification

of children. • Objective 2: Communities and families affected by natural disaster and conflict are able to

access and utilize emergency-related protection information. • Objective 3: Protection monitoring established in areas of potential displacement and crisis with

a view to taking effective protective action. • Objective 4: Survivors of sexual violence have information and access to integrated protective

services. • Objective 5: Inherently vulnerable groups are provided with a coordinated response addressing

their needs by all sectors.

Contact Information [email protected] Needs Analysis Analysis of trends and needs in Kenya, reveal that cyclical and recurrent hazards such as floods, landslides, fires and localized conflicts lead to regular pockets of humanitarian need which require rapid assistance. In 2010, the shelter and non-food items (NFI) sector will focus on the provision of emergency shelter and NFI assistance to populations affected by disasters in Kenya. (Transitional shelter provision has been incorporated under the early recovery response plan.) Objectives 1. Provide sufficient domestic and hygiene items (NFI) and emergency shelter to population

affected by natural disaster, conflict, and displacement in line with common standards. 2. Strengthen information management and coordination among NFI and emergency shelter

partners. 3. Improve pre-positioning of NFI and emergency shelter in disaster prone regions to enhance the

level of readiness and timely response to disaster situations.

Indicators • Data on emergency shelter/NFI needs and types in target areas established. • Beneficiary databases are maintained: including number of emergency shelters/NFI family kits

Overview of priority needs and response strategy: Project Intervention Location & Rationale The exact geographical focus areas for intervention is based on the six geographical “Clusters” used by the LRA of August 2009, namely Northern Pastoral, Eastern Pastoral, Agro-Pastoral, South Eastern Marginal Agricultural, Coastal Marginal Agricultural & Post-Election-Crisis Areas. The Sector Response Plan has been completed in consultation with sector partners through the WESCOORD emergency Water & Sanitation Coordination Committee chaired by the Ministry of Water & Irrigation. Drought The successive poor performance of rains since 2007 has led to worsening drought crisis across many districts of Kenya. Following the failure of the short-rain season of December 2008 the food security status of an estimated 2.5 million pastoralists, agro-pastoralists, and marginal agricultural households deteriorated to critical levels.4

The 2009 Long Rain Season Assessment of August 2009 has shown that the rains performed poorly nationwide with north western & eastern pastoral, south eastern & coastal marginal lowlands receiving exceptionally poor rains of between 10 and 50%.5

4 The 2008/09 Short-Rains Season Assessment Report – KFSSG. 5 The 2009 long Rains Season Assessment Report – Kenya Food Security Steering Group (KFSSG) Aug 09.

60


There is an acute water shortage prevailing in the geographical clusters due to the poor performance of the long rains and the prolonged drought, with little recharge of temporary water sources. Over 90% of pans, dams, and shallow wells have dried. This loss of available water has increased distances to water points significantly. In the pastoral livelihood zones the average distance to water points for domestic use is 25-30 kilometres, whereas seven kilometres is normal. Meanwhile, distances to water sources in agro-pastoral livelihood average 15-18 kilometres compared with the normal 9-10 kilometres. This has led to a reduction in water usage which currently averages 3-5 litres per person per day compared to the normal average of 5-10 litres per person per day. Together with distance to water points, cost is another factor influencing water use level. The price of water in cities for example has risen to an average of Ksh 50 for 20 litres compared to the normal price of Ksh 30. The Long Rains Assessment concludes that population of pastoralists, agro-pastoralists and marginal agricultural farm households affected by the drought and requiring urgent humanitarian assistance has risen from the 2.5 million people reported in the Short Rains Assessment earlier in the year to 3.8 million people.2

The priority need is to establish adequate, sustainable water supplies and move away from the expensive and unsustainable water trucking which has been a common drought response. The response strategy is to include the establishment of water supplies with solar- or wind-powered pumps where this is feasible and to build capacity in local communities to manage the water supply schemes more effectively. Support is needed to repair & rehabilitate existing water supplies and ensure their sustainability through improved management capacity. Hygiene promotion and behavioural change is also a priority area for intervention to reduce WASH-related disease load; this includes training on appropriate household water treatment, storage and use.

Floods The forecast for the Short Rains season of October-December have been predicting enhanced rainfall across much of the country but especially in the Western and Eastern areas due to the evolving El Niño effect in the Pacific Ocean.6 The expectation is for El Niño conditions to prevail through the remainder of 2009 and into the first quarter of 2010. This expectation is based on model forecasts, and the typical life-cycle of El Niño events, which once established in the early-middle part of a year, usually persist through into the first quarter of the following year.7

There is a likelihood of flooding in Western & Eastern Districts along the Nzioa & Tana Rivers which are particularly susceptible to flooding events. There is a need to prepare to provide humanitarian assistance to those displaced by the floods as well as those populations whose access to safe water and sanitation services is reduced by the effects of flooding in their communities.

IDPs In August the number of IDPs arising from the PEV of 2008 remains at 14,400 households (approximately 72,000 people) housed in transitional camps, “Self-help groups” (where former IDPs have pooled their money to buy land together), and remaining IDP camps.8 By October the remaining IDP camps had closed with IDPs receiving shelters or cash payments and the MoSSP estimated that 60,000 people still remained in the transitional camps & self-help groups. In addition, there are still many IDPs who have been integrated into communities, notably in Kisumu and Nairobi informal settlements, which are placing a strain on already-poor existing services. Very few of the people displaced by the post-election violence have found durable solutions to their needs – for example those housed in the self-help camps find themselves with few or no services available and little continued support from humanitarian agencies. People continue to be highly vulnerable due to displacement resulting from the PEV of 2008 as well as previous political and resource-based conflicts (such as Mt. Elgon and Mau Forest) and those displaced by floods and droughts. In addition to responding to the current IDP situation there is a also a need to prepare for future IDP emergencies which would include pre-positioning emergency WASH materials as well as training and increasing the capacity of government agencies to plan and implement emergency interventions. The priority remains to provide WASH services in returnee areas to those affected by PEV, especially schools & health centres, to support communities hosting IDPs, to provide WASH services to all IDP populations not just those affected by PEV and to prepare for possible future IDPs. Disease Outbreak The outbreak of cholera has cumulatively affected 38 districts nationwide with a total of 8,363 cases, 188 deaths and a case fatality rate of 2% since January 2009. Outbreaks tend to be in Nyanza Province along the shores of Lake Victoria; however Rift Valley and North Eastern provinces have also suffered. A priority is to strengthen the cholera monitoring and response mechanisms. These are primarily through the MoPH&S and MoWI. Strategies would include provision of water quality testing kits and training for district officers to plan, implement, and sustain a coherent water quality testing regime and to build capacity to respond early to contain outbreaks. Hygiene promotion is an essential component of cholera response and such activities would use schools as an entry point to the wider community. Table of Proposed Area Coverage per Site

Consolidated Appeal Process (CAP)

The CAP is a tool for aid organizations to jointly plan, coordinate, implement and monitor their response to disasters and emergencies, and to appeal for funds together instead of competitively. It is the forum for developing a strategic approach to humanitarian action, focusing on close cooperation between host governments, donors, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, International Organization for Migration (IOM) and, United Nations agencies. As such, it presents a snapshot of the situation and response plans, and is an inclusive and coordinated programme cycle of: • Strategic planning leading to a Common Humanitarian Action Plan (CHAP) • Resource mobilization leading to a Consolidated Appeal or a Flash Appeal • Coordinated programme implementation • Joint monitoring and evaluation • Revision, if necessary • Reporting on results The CHAP is the core of the CAP – a strategic plan for humanitarian response in a given country or region, including the following elements: • A common analysis of the context in which humanitarian action takes place • An assessment of needs • Best, worst, and most likely scenarios • A clear statement of longer-term objectives and goals • Prioritized response plans, including a detailed mapping of projects to cover all needs • A framework for monitoring the strategy and revising it if necessary The CHAP is the core of a Consolidated Appeal or, when crises break out or natural disasters strike, a Flash Appeal. Under the leadership of the Humanitarian Coordinator, and in consultation with host Governments and donors, the CHAP is developed at the field level by the Humanitarian Country Team. This team includes IASC members and standing invitees (UN agencies, the International Organization for Migration, the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, and NGOs that belong to ICVA, Interaction, or SCHR), but non-IASC members, such as national NGOs, can also be included. The Humanitarian Coordinator is responsible for the annual preparation of the consolidated appeal document. The document is launched globally near the end of each year to enhance advocacy and resource mobilization. An update, known as the Mid-Year Review, is presented to donors the following July. Donors generally fund appealing agencies directly in response to project proposals listed in appeals. The Financial Tracking Service (FTS), managed by the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), is a database of appeal funding needs and worldwide donor contributions, and can be found on www.reliefweb.int/fts. In sum, the CAP is how aid agencies join forces to provide people in need the best available protection and assistance, on time.
