Many in Kenya are reliant on impoverished subsistence farming that, coupled with poor health care resources (one doctor for every 10,000 people), drives many into further poverty as income drops when the family earner becomes ill when suffering from HIV (4.2% of the population), water borne diseases and malaria. Another factor for the rising levels of poverty in Kenya is the tripling of the population in just 30 years placing an unsustainable burden on available land and already poor resources such as water with 15% of Kenyans relying on unimproved water sources such as ponds, shallow wells and rivers, while 41% lack access to basic sanitation solutions. This figures are higher in rural, villages areas. The water situation in Kenya is compounded by the worst drought conditions for sixty years which are sweeping across the Horn of Africa from Djibouti where thousands of animals are dying and Nomads driven from their lands, across Somalia and into eastern Kenya and such droughts look as though they are here to stay for the foreseeable future, not least because of rapid deforestation and poor land management and farming techniques.
