dc.descriptionThe promotion and enforcement of land ownership rights, in particular community lands, remains a contentious policy issue in Kenya, due in part to legislative and institutional capacity limitations at a decentralized, county level. In turn, this has limited the degree to which land administration and management efforts reach the predominantly pastoralist communities who inhabit Kenya’s arid and semi-arid lands (ASAL). Despite ASAL accounting for over 80 percent of Kenya’s total land area, ASAL communities have showed disproportionately lower human development and higher poverty levels vis-à-vis the national average. In addition, community land in Kenya is mainly managed under customary law frameworks or group ranches, accounting for approximately 70 percent of all land. Coupled with insufficient a land tenure support that is specific to their tenure types, ASAL communities have been marginalized within their own country. With ASAL further characterized by low and erratic rainfall, the need for diversified livelihoods that improve community-based income-generating opportunities is paramount.
