Is there development potential in arid and semi-arid lands (ASALs)?
Résumé
Arid and semi-arid lands, comprising about
55% of land in Africa and 80% of land in
Kenya, are characterised by particularly harsh
living conditions with low rainfall of between 100 to 600
millimetres per year. In these regions of a mainly pastoral
population, the rate of poverty is often the highest.
Isiolo District in Kenya, one of the 13 districts of the
Eastern Province, has such an environment.
