Household Economic Analysis of Samburu and Turkana Counties

The analysis aims to understand the livelihood systems of households in these counties, including their income sources, expenditure patterns, food sources, and response strategies to shocks and stresses. The study provides insights into the socioeconomic characteristics of the population, economic opportunities for the most vulnerable populations, and strategies for strengthening local markets to increase the availability of nutritious foods and incomes for poor households. The brief highlights the importance of understanding household livelihoods in designing effective interventions to address food insecurity and poverty, and ultimately, to reduce persistent global acute malnutrition.
