I. General Overview
In an effort to reconfirm commitments made to address some of the core drivers of conflict, the
Kenyan National Dialogue and Reconciliation released a public service announcement in local
media. An ambitious matrix of planned activities was outlined, including reform of the constitution,
over the next six to twelve months. As a critical part of the peace-building process, the Truth
Justice and Reconciliation Commission is also expected to complete its work by 2010. Meanwhile,
measures to address inequities and regional imbalances will be implemented within the next two to
three years.

Meanwhile, the debate over whether perpetrators of the PEV should receive amnesty was aired in
the Commission of Inquiry into the Post-Election Violence as Attorney General Amos Wako
rejected calls to grant amnesty to perpetrators of PEV. However,
noting that there was insufficient evidence to prosecute many
alleged offenders being held in association with the violence, he
recommended that a Criminal Investigation Department be
created under the Attorney General's office to conduct further
investigations.

Recognizing that land-related issues are some of the primary

drivers of conflict, there has been widespread demand for the first
National Land Policy since 1963 to be passed. The Policy is
expected to address irregular allocations of land and accessibility
to land by the poor. Civil society groups have also advocated that
that the Policy address the various functions that land serves to
the diverse population in Kenya, including a primary source of
livelihoods for agriculturalists and pastoralists; a foundation for
national economic development; and an important source of
cultural heritage. It has been highlighted that the lack of clear
policies to address access, rights, usage and competing interests
in land, could continue to fuel conflicts in the country, particularly
as population pressures increase the demand for resources. Pastoralist child in Turkana district.

livelihoods see p. 3
 In addition to ongoing processes to address longstanding grievances the Government initiated
constructive channels to hold public offices accountable for service delivery. A Public Service
week was held between 20-27 August, which included efforts to improve public services, such as
extended hours of service. Citizens Service Charters were also launched which provide essential
information on the functions and services of all public offices, thereby empowering the public to
hold officials and institutions accountable to their mandates.

II. Humanitarian Situation

Food Security
Based on the findings of the Long Rains Assessment (LRA) conducted by the Kenya Food Security
Steering Group (KFSSG), immediate and long-term interventions are necessary in several sectors
to respond to the food security situation. Because of the compounding factors contributing to food
insecurity in pastoral regions, they require the greatest amount of resources in multiple sectoral
areas. Some of the major factors affecting food security in these areas include: below-normal and
sporadic rainfall; livestock diseases, including peste des petits ruminants (PPR), which deteriorated
livestock body conditions and decrease pastoralists’ purchasing power; insecurity due to cattle
rustling and competition for resources; high commodity prices; and high rates of malnutrition.

The LRA provides an important opportunity to identify areas at risk of food insecurity and areas of
possible intervention; however, the situation also needs to be considered with respect to the
seasonal calendar and specifically the forthcoming short rains (between mid-October and the end
of December). According to FEWSNET, the degraded pastures and deteriorated crop conditions in
2008 were in part affected by poor short rains in 2007; likewise the food security situation for the
remainder of 2008 and in 2009 will be greatly affected by the short rains.

Pastoralist Livelihoods

The period between the long and short rains is also the time period in which pastoralists migrate
with livestock to dry-season grazing areas. Because of the prevailing drought conditions
throughout a significant portion of pastoralist areas, there has been increased competition for
resources amongst pastoralists during this season.

The Lockichoggio Oropoi and Kakuma Development Organization (LOKADO) highlighted that one
of the key grazing area during drought periods spans between Koten and Morulem, Turkana
district to Kotdo district, Uganda. The proliferation of arms and presence of cattle rustlers in this
region, however, has resulted loss of over 300 cattle and 3,500 shoats over the past two years.

In an effort to protect the region, which is also an important wildlife corridor, the Ugandan
Government reportedly sent a notice that all pastoralists were to vacate the area in July; however,
with increasingly scare pasture areas to turn to, many pastoralists remained. LOKADO reported
that on 15 August, the Uganda
Peoples Defense Forces
(UPDF) led an operation in the
region to evict the pastoralists
and clashes erupted. LOKADO
reported that the clashes
resulted in the death of ten
people and injury of three
others.

Following the clashes,

LOKADO reports that the
pastoralists have moved over
the border into Kenya and have
sought refuge in Oropoi
division, Turkana North district.
However, there is reportedly
insufficient pasture and water in
the area. The displaced
population is also reportedly in
need of food aid and NFIs.

Meanwhile, the UN Department

Source: Conflict Early Warning and Response Mechanism
of Safety and Security reported
that, despite monthly peace and
reconciliation meetings, tensions are high in Oropoi division, Turkana North particularly following
clashes during a failed cross-border raid by cattle rustlers between 24-25 August.

Mount Elgon

Peacenet reported that a three-day peace meeting was held in Busia, Mount Elgon from 13-15
August supported by Peacenet, Safer World and the Catholic Justice and Peace Commission,
Bungoma Diocese and including the participation of 48 leaders from communities in Mount Elgon.

The purpose of the meeting was to develop a common platform for reconciliation among the
conflicting parties and devise a schedule for peace building activities. At the meeting, it was
agreed that an interim District Peace Committee would be formed in the area to lead peace
building activities. It was also recognized that traditional institutions, such as the council of elders,
and community-based peace building models needed to be strengthened. Furthermore, the
important role that youth play in peace building was recognized, especially because of the youth
involvement in the conflict, and youth-specific programming was discussed.

On 22 August, there were demonstrations in Mount Elgon during a visit of the Parliamentary
Committee on National Security, which was undertaking a fact-finding mission over claims that the
military perpetrated acts of torture during their security operation to rout the Sabaot Land Defense
Force (SLDF) militia. The protestors demanded that the military remain in Mount Elgon to ensure
their security. The Mount Elgon district police, meanwhile, intensified their search for bodies of
victims of the violence in the region; ten bodies have been exhumed so far.

Security
UNDSS reported that tensions arose along the Mandera East district border with Ethiopia on 13
August after an Ethiopian national who was detained in a Kenyan prison, died due to illness. The
situation was calmed and the body of the deceased man was given to his family in Suftu, Ethiopia.

Population Movements and Displacement Trends

The KRCS reported that there were 25,296 IDPs in 48 IDP camps as of 1 September. The KRCS,
WFP and an interagency assessment noted that there were 99,198 IDPs in 160 transit sites. The
Ministry of State for Special Programmes (MOSSP) reported that as of 18 August, 226,187 IDPs
had returned to pre-displacement areas. The majority of returns have taken place from Molo
district (43,277 persons) followed by Kipkelion (23,992 persons) and Trans Nzoia West districts
(21,482 persons).

Source: KRCS 27 August

There has been an increasing trend of IDP movement to, and settlement in, areas other than their
pre-displacement homes. This trend is in accordance with the Guiding Principles on Displacement,
which reaffirms the right of IDPs to return to their pre-displacement home, integrate in their area of
displacement, or relocate to another destination of their choice. Indeed, the Ministry of State for
Special Programmes (MOSSP) facilitated IDPs to choose their destination by paying
“resettlement/start-up funds” at the site of displacement or through Kenya Commercial Bank
branches, rather than only in pre-displacement areas. However, with multiple trends in IDP
movements, the timely delivery of humanitarian assistance has been challenging. Many of the
areas of return, relocation or integration remain in need of adequate water, sanitation and hygiene,
continued food assistance and access to other basic services.

Nakuru District

There was an increase in the number of IDPs who have registered to return in Nakuru district;
however, there remains a lack of trucks to facilitate movements.

A group of IDPs comprised of 500 families (approximately 2,000 individuals) have identified a ten-
acre plot of land at Pipeline Area in Nakuru Town which they intend to collectively purchase and
relocate to. The DCs office is currently supporting the group to confirm the authenticity of the land
title deed and have assisted the group to obtain legal services. Some of the IDPs originated in
Nakuru town while others had been displaced from Nandi, Uasin Gishu, Molo, Koibatek, Kericho
and Makongeni districts.

A second group of 220 families (approximately 1,000 people) has also identified another ten-acre
plot of land in the Pipeline Area, Nakuru Town, to which they wish to relocate. This group is
comprised primarily of former squatters at Makongeni farm in Nakuru municipality.

Whilst the DC has committed to assist these two populations to move to the new sites once they
have completed the purchasing process, there has also been an appeal to the humanitarian
community to provide basic services to the IDPs at these new sites. In response, UNICEF has
earmarked NFIs, UNHCR has identified tents, and WFP and KRCS are planning to meet food aid
needs. Action Against Hunger (ACF) and the District Architects Office have committed to assist
the IDPs to plan WASH infrastructure at the sites and UNCHR and OCHA are helping the
populations obtain information so they can make informed decisions about the sites they choose
(including information on security and accessibility of basic service infrastructure). It was agreed
that an inter-agency needs assessment will be conducted when the IDPs move to the site.

Naivasha District

IDP movements from Naivasha Stadium IDP camp were expected to start on 20 August. However,
a lack of payment of Government start-up funds and lack of trucks to facilitate movement have
delayed the process.

Molo District

IDP movements were also delayed in Molo district, pending the arrival of Government funds to
distribute to returnees.

transit sites in the North and South Rift by 1 September; it is
expected that this mapping exercise will facilitate future
monitoring efforts. Meanwhile, an assessment of shelter and NFI needs in Uasin Gishu district
transit sites is ongoing.

Results of the IDP profiling exercise were sent to the National Bureau of Statistics and are
expected to be shared by 20 September.

Protection

The Cluster has completed the assessment of the protection concerns and needs of IDPs in
communities in eight districts in Western Province. Workshops on the Guiding Principles on
Internal Displacement are planned for Provincial Administration, District Commissioners, and
District Officers in Kakamega for the first week in September. The Cluster is also field testing the
Handbook for the Protection of IDPs.

UNICEF, the Children’s Department and Children’s Welfare Society have visited 326 child care
institutions (CCIs) and have identified 1,752 cases of children separated from their families related
to the PEV. Between 850 and 900 child-headed households, related to PEV, were also identified in
Molo district. It is estimated that here are several factors leading to the increased number of child-
headed households, including improved reporting. Parents have also reported that they left their
children behind because of lack of basic services in areas of return such as shelter, schools, and
health facilities. Some cited insecurity as a reason, particularly in Karirikanyi location, Molo District.
The Molo DC’s Office agreed to follow up on peace and reconciliation activities in the area.

A collaborative systems development programme for separated children is being finalized and the
department of Children’s services and National Council of Children’s Services are planning an
Emergency and Preparedness Response Planning session for 15-17 September. It is expected
that this will provide the basis for establishing a coordination mechanism to respond to
emergencies as they arise.

The GBV Sub-Cluster, with legal support from the Federation of Women Lawyers, is compiling final
submissions to the Commission of Inquiry into Post Election Violence. The report will include the
reports from Nairobi, Nakuru, Eldoret, and Kisumu districts, where the sub-cluster supported
survivors to testify and highlight legal issues.

A UNHCR field trip in Molo concluded that there has been an increase in the number of cases of
GBV in transit sites. The situation is reportedly being exacerbated due to constraints in the
delivery of humanitarian assistance and lack of livelihood options, which reportedly increased
stress, frustration and vulnerabilities amongst the displaced. The UNHCR Protection Officer and
Community Services Assistant conducted an informal SGBV sensitization exercises targeting
women, men and youth in four transit sites: Rironi, Jogoo, Milima, and Total Centre. More
sensitization and mapping of services for GBV survivors will continue to be carried out in the South
Rift.

A field trip by the UNFPA GENCAP Advisor to evaluate Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (SEA) in
Nakuru, Naivasha, Eldoret, and Kitale concluded that local populations, CBOs, NGOs, UN
agencies, and local authorities lacked knowledge of what constitutes a SEA offense and often
confused SEA with GBV. SEA is an abuse of a position of power exercised on those who are

6
vulnerable or susceptible to coercion and in need of goods, services, employment or other life
sustaining inputs.

However, there were allegations that SEA had been perpetrated by organization personnel,
authorities, and other IDPs. In the areas of return in Nakuru and Naivasha there were also reports
of incidents of sex exchanged money or food. In Eldoret Showground IDP Camp, Uasin Gishu
district, food scarcity reportedly led to the exploitation of girls in exchange for food. The large
population of children not in school and the lack of livelihood recovery leave populations vulnerable
to exploitation. The exchange of sexual services for essential commodities was widely perceived
as a survival tactic.

There were many factors reported which have contributed to an under-reporting of SEA offenses,
including: lack of SEA awareness; shame and embarrassment; a perception that reporting is
complicated and unnecessary or could result in the victim loosing a source of food or other
provision; a lack of clear/effective reporting mechanism; and lack of confidentiality in reporting.
SEA prevention workshops are planed to be rolled out in October.

Shelter and Non Food Items

The MoSSP will construct 40,000 houses over a nine-month period. Each house will cost an
estimated KSh33,000 and the total cost of the project will be USD22 million. The Government’s
Shelter Project, supported by the UNDP Early Recovery Advisor will begin by building 300 houses
in Kuresoi, Molo district. The project will be implemented in a participatory manner: timber, iron
sheets, cement and Ksh 6,000 (cash for work) will be contributed to households targeted by the
DC. There will also be a training component of the program, which will target youth in construction
skills development and women for clay brick making. Funding for 4,000 houses has been secured
and pledges have been received for an additional 22,000 houses.

DRC, supported by UNHCR, will distribute 2,700 transitional shelter kits in Molo District targeting
Keringet, Gusemia, Nyagacho, Muae, Kinkasa, Kiambogo, Githima, Karirirkanya, Nyakinywa and
Kio Divisions. In Kipkelion, GOAL is supplying 300 kits to families whose houses were partially
damaged. IOM will also support 115 shelters in Kurusoi, Molo district; 350 in Kieklion district;
and 250 in Lugari district.

Discussions in the Shelter Cluster sector have focused on how to ensure that projects are well-
coordinated, targeted to avoid duplication or gaps, and harmonized to avoid any major
discrepancies in the shelter design.

Kenya’s National Music Festival brought 80,000 students from across the country to Kisumu to
celebrate the theme of living together in unity, peace and harmony. Leaders encouraged Head
Teachers to promote similar activities with the government funds allocated to each school to
support peace initiatives.

IMC is investigating reports that students are unable to attend the existing school in Kiambaa,
Kiambu district, and parents have requested that tents be provided to accommodate them.

Food Assistance

With the number of food aid beneficiaries expected to increase form 1.2 million to 1.4 million in
September, WFP reported that the arrival of food aid from South Africa, expected by the end of
August, will be critical to maintain the food pipeline until October 2008.

Under Emergency Operations 217,548 beneficiaries will be targeted in the Rift Valley in the August
cycle. Food continues to be provided to IDPs in camps and returnees on a monthly and bi-weekly
basis respectively. Targeting remains a major challenge for the IDP areas due to ongoing
movements as well as increases in unregistered IDPs – due to IDPs living in communities and new
returnees to areas. Instances of double registration have also been noted due to continuous
movement in and out of the camps, which poses a challenge to determining accurate numbers.

The KRCS distributed food assistance to 52,536 beneficiaries from 23 food distribution points in
Molo District in July; however, the August cycle only targeted 51,786 beneficiaries after a
verification exercise revealed that there were double registrations and movement of IDPs out of
Molo. The Department of Roads is planning to rehabilitate the roads in Molo to ease transport
challenges.

Distribution monitoring in Nakuru Showground and Lanet Police Station camps found an increase
in the number of unregistered IDPs, both IDPs living in communities and returnees, resulting in the
sharing of rations. The DC Nakuru observed that the urban returnees from Afraha Stadium IDP
Camp have not received any food aid apart from the one month ration when they left the camp in
July. KRCS and WFP are in discussion with the DC to use government food allocated to the district
to target returnees in Nakuru Town.

In Nyanza/Western Provinces, distribution began for 646 beneficiaries on 27 August in four camps.

Health

WHO estimated that IDPs living in IDP camps are at risk of the of leishmaniasis (kala-azar)
outbreak in the Rift Valley province. High levels of malnutrition, lack of quality health services and
low immunity make communities, especially children under five, more vulnerable to the disease.
WHO is monitoring the outbreak and strengthening the early warning system and has pre-
positioned medical kits in the Rift Valley and North-Eastern provinces. UNICF also assessed

8
leishmaniasis cases in Kiambogo, Naivasha district with the Provincial Medical Officer and other
actors in health partners.

Early Recovery

The CRS is implementing peace building activities through the Catholic Dioceses of Eldoret, in
Eldoret and Burnt Forest, Usain Gishu district. These activities are carried out by local community
groups including the Amani Project and the Village Peace Committee. Through these groups CRS
is encouraging community dialogue in support of peace and reconciliation. !
!
A Peace Caravan, organized by the Voluntary Youth Philanthropists, World Vision International
and Peacenet, comprised of youth from different communities, will depart Nairobi on 6 September.
The Peace Caravan's theme is healing and reconciliation, celebrating diversity through culture,
creative art, and theatrical performances. It will also address other issues, including HIV/AIDS
prevention and education, and how to create more opportunities for young people to grow and
develop. The caravan will stop in the following areas: Murang’a, Mukurweini, Nyeri town, Nanyuki,
Doldol, Isiolo, Losasia, Laisamis, Marsabit, Turbi, Moyale, Loiyangarani,and Maralal.

ACF have launched livelihoods activities with DRC and CRS in Molo, which will include cash
vouchers to target 1,728 families with USD250 per family.

DRC started a Kiosk Project in Molo District. Two group-owned kiosks (in Kio and Karirikanya,
Molo district) will be formed, comprised of six people each. The Kiosks will be run jointly by the
group and the individuals will then finance the establishment of independent kiosks, through their
savings. Once all members have established individual kiosks, the initial kiosk will be rented out
and proceeds will support other vulnerable groups. In addition to supporting the livelihoods
development of members, the kiosk project will facilitate the supply of goods to the areas in which
they are developed and also stimulate local markets.

WASH

UNICEF received CERF funds to implement WASH activities. In areas of return in Eldoret,
Nakuru, and Kisumu districts, 200 shallow wells were fitted with hand pumps, latrines and water
supplies constructed for 10 schools, and hygiene promotion was carried out in schools and
communities.

A small number of cases of cholera were reported in Nyando, Homa Bay, and Kuria. UNICEF is
supporting the District Public Health Officers by supplying water treatment chemicals, soap, latrine
slabs, and water containers for distribution to affected areas and for hygiene promotion campaigns.
A total of 20,000 jerrycans, 10,000 buckets, 900,000 aquatabs, 50,000 PUR sachets, and 25,000
bars of soap are pre-positioned for cholera emergency response.
