Summary edit

Description
English: Margaret, 'n inwoner van Kataboi-stat in Turkana, Noord-Kenia, is een van 60 000 kwesbare mense wat voordeel trek uit 'n innoverende 'honger-veiligheidsnetprogram', ondersteun deur Britse hulp. Die program voorsien mense maandeliks van klein kontant-oorplasings, wat hulle in staat te stel om kos te koop of klein besighede te begin.
Die droogte het aansienlike vrektes van hierdie herdersgemeenskap se vee veroorsaak, wat dikwels hul enigste bron van voedsel en inkomste is. “Sonder water is ons vee nie produktief nie. Niks kan groei nie,” sê sy.
Margaret het haar veiligheidsnet gebruik om noodsaaklike voorrade te koop, maar ook om haar dogters skool toe te stuur.
English: Margaret, a resident of Kataboi Village in Turkana, northern Kenya, is one of 60,000 vulnerable people benefitting from an innovative 'hunger safety net programme', supported by British aid. The programme provides people with small cash transfers each month, to enable them to buy food or start up small businesses.
The drought has claimed the lives of many of this pastoralist community's livestock, which are often their only source of food and income. ”Without water, our livestock are not productive. Nothing can grow,” she says.
Margaret has used her safety net to buy essential supplies, but also to send her daughters to school.
