International Dialogue on Land and Security in Baringo County in April 2016
24/03/2016
Humanity faces three enormous, inter-related challenges in the 21st century: mitigating the impact of climate change, feeding the world’s population and preserving the integrity of the planet’s ecosystems.
These challenges are felt acutely in semi-arid Africa. In the search for solutions, the County Governments of Baringo and Elgeyo Marakwet in Kenya invited the IofC program 'Initiatives for Land, Lives, and Peace' to partner with them in the organization of a 'Dialogue on Land and Security'.
The dialogue took place in Kabarnet, Baringo County, from 12-15 April.
It followed the participation of the Deputy Governors of Baringo and Elgeyo Marakwet at the 'Caux Dialogue on Land and Security' in 2014 and 2015.
