| dc.description | The research on community-based animal health workers (CAHW) was undertaken in West Pokot Wajir and Marsabit Districts of Kenya. The objectives of the study were fourfold. First, the study aimed to identify the 'ideal' qualities of CAHWs as perceived by veterinary policy makers and pastoral livestock keepers. Second, it was intended to investigate the relationship between applied selection criteria and selection procedures for CAHWs and the sustainability of CAH systems. The third objective was to evaluate gender issues in the selection of CAHWs. And finally, the fourth objective was to elaborate evidence-based policy recommendations to the appropriate decision makers on the standardisation of CAHW selection, training and supervision procedures with a view of ensuring quality and sustainability of CAH systems. | |
