Evaluation: Kenya, Diocese of Maralal 2010
Maralal is located in Samburu region, Northern Kenya, and has been somewhat neglected by successive governments. Tribal conflicts over the past two to three decades have worsened and cost greater numbers of lives as readily available weapons are being used with greater frequency.The conflicts are about shrinking natural resources for the nomadic tribes, as they move their animals around in search of water and pasture. However, governmental intervention in terms of drawing geographical boundaries which seek to confine the movement of these tribes are heightening tensions as drought worsens and places further pressure on livelihoods.
