PACIDA Drought Response 2017

In February 2017, UN OCHA reported that 12.8 million individuals in four East African countries were experiencing acute levels of food insecurity and needed humanitarian assistance because of drought. Kenya is one of the countries affected by the drought. The Shifting the Power project in Kenya has worked to provide timely and effective response, and influenced the authorities at various levels to take action. One organization, the Pastoralist Community Initiative and Development Assistance (PACIDA), has shown how local actors are the pillars of a more balanced humanitarian system. The Shifting the Power project strongly supports the localisation of aid, by sustaining organisations like PACIDA so that they are better able to address emergencies.

The Pastoralist Community Initiative and Development Assistance (PACIDA) is an indigenous, non-sectarian, non-profit, Non-Governmental Organization committed to sustainable pastoralist development. PACIDA works with pastoralist communities in Kenya and Ethiopia to end poverty, hunger and disease while addressing the most pressing challenges affecting the communities.
