Water development in communal rangelands of northern Kenya

At the International Rangeland Congress in July 2016 in Saskatoon, Canada, a presentation on “Promoting resilience by influencing water infrastructure development in community managed rangelands of Northern Kenya” was made by IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) in the session on “Rangeland Goods and Services”. This highlighted the challenges, key issues and achievements of IUCN-supported work with pastoralist communities in Isiolo and Garissa Counties.
