Description

Kenya is prone to cyclic droughts, with twenty droughts recorded during the twentieth century. However, the drought caused by the continuous failure of rainfall between October 1998 and May 2001 was the worst in living memory, and so severe that the Kenyan Government declared it a national disaster in June 2000. This report is the result of a collaboration between the Government of Kenya and the United Nations Environment Programme. It has three aims: to assess the environmental impact of the disaster; to identify contributing factors; and to recommend measures to mitigate its effects and minimise the impact of future droughts. The report finds that, despite the recurrence of droughts, Kenya does not have a comprehensive drought policy. As a result, drought is managed as a crisis issue which focuses on food without due consideration of environmental implications. A number of recommendations are made in the report, such as the need to strengthen sustainable forest management practices and to establish a mechanism for monitoring areas vulnerable to drought.
