Water use conflicts

Since the establishment of the Laikipia Research Programme (LRP), and its subsequent transformation to CETRAD, various research outputs in the form of reports and GIS thematic layers have been produced covering both socio-economic and biophysical aspects. Most recently, many of these outputs have covered issues on water use conflicts, Water Users Associations, development needs, food security, drought management, human elephant conflict management, conservation of protected areas and horticulture, among others.

ESAPP funded projects fall under two categories: CETRAD's Projects and Collaborative Projects. CETRAD's Projects are those funded for direct implementation by CETRAD, while Collaborative Projects are those funded for implementation by third party institutions, but under the coordination by and/or involvement of CETRAD. Collaborative Projects are both in Kenya and Tanzania.
