ENV - Combating Wildlife Crime in Kenya Program (Kenya):  Using FY 2021 funding, USAID will continue to support the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) and the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife to scale up their ability to combat wildlife trafficking activities. The award seeks to: i) improve  organizational capacity and support policy reforms; ii) maintain connectivity and improve ecosystem integrity and resilience; iii)  enhance partnership, community engagement and improve Wildlife Protection & Security; and vi) secure conservation financing by diversification of wildlife and tourism enterprises. The project supports Kenya's sustainability efforts by aligning and informing relevant deliverables under the new National Wildlife Conservation and Management Strategy which KWS is responsible for implementing. The KWS five-year Strategic Plan (2019- 2024) includes: the Implementation Letter -IL No. ENV-MoTW-1with the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife for Projects and Activities under USAID Grant Agreement No. 615-DOAG-KEN-20-00, priority listing the 2018 KWS Organizational Risk Assessment Report.The program also supports several U.S. government priorities, including the USAID Biodiversity Policy, the U.S. National Strategy for Combating Wildlife Trafficking, the Eliminate, Neutralize and Disrupt (END) Wildlife Trafficking Act and USAID's Gender Equality and Women Empowerment (GEWE) Policy.   The conservation and management of  wildlife and landscapes is a key element of nature based solutions for climate mitigation. Through the implementation of this activity, it will advance the U.S. Foreign Policy and National Security on tackling the climate crisis. $800,000 and $100,000 of funding within this IM contributes to meeting the required "combating wildlife trafficking" of $3,800,000 and adaptation indirect of $1,300,000 earmarks.
HPN- Human Resources for Health (HRH) (Kenya):  The Human Resources for Health Kenya (HRH) mechanism strengthens HRH management systems for better health outcomes. HRH contributes to the Journey to Self-Reliance by implementing the Afya Elimu Fund, a revolving fund that provides low interest tuition fees loans for students in medical training colleges. Beneficiaries then enter gainful employment and contribute towards better health outcomes. As loans get repaid, additional loans are extended to other students. Using FY 2019 funds, this activity builds the capacity of pre-service medical training institutions and Ministry of Health (MOH) in-service training programs. It supports the county HRH management units to ensure a well distributed workforce and strengthen the health worker information system for effective decision-making, and budgeting. Support for county HRH units includes advocacy for increased HRH resources, performance quality, and HRH strategies for attraction, deployment, and retention. Advocacy extends to the MOH and counties to adopt health workforce data systems, which are used to rationalize placement of health workers based on need. To support universal health coverage, community workforce development processes include training of community health extension workers and ensuring community services cadres are recognized so county governments are prepared to adopt and retain them. HRH additionally promotes county forums where workers' unions and county leadership can engage regularly to dialogue on issues and reduce labor disputes. Dialogues between county governments and unions also address the high absenteeism rates and staff turnover, which negatively impact HRH outcomes. Improved linkages with professional associations and continuous medical education institutions ensures health workers have the competence to provide quality health services, hence improving global public health, which supports the Administration's priority of asserting U.S. leadership and influence..

OEGI-Livestock Market Systems – Leader with Associates (Kenya):  The Livestock Market Systems (LMS) Leader with Associates (LWA) activity enables chronically vulnerable households and communities to pursue improved economic opportunities in the livestock market system. LMS LWA leads a coordinated effort with six Associate Sub-Awards to provide comprehensive assistance to vulnerable households and communities that often struggle to escape poverty due to complex risks and exposure to recurrent shocks and stresses. The LMS Leader collaborates with each of the six Associate Sub-Awards by serving as a support platform for USAID's resilience focus countries in the Horn of Africa, including Uganda, Kenya, Ethiopia, Somalia, South Sudan and Democratic Republic of Congo. The LMS LWA will use FY 2021 funds to administer grants under the associate awards in Kenya. The grant facility is designed to stimulate and partner with private sector businesses to catalyze economic development and community level grants to strengthen resilience capacities. Additionally, LMS Leader will continue to be the management platform for the Associate Awards issued under the LWA, with the aim of providing cost effective and centralized support, including centralized finance, procurement; operations; human resources; communications; monitoring and evaluation; and Geographic Information System services. LMS Leader will promote Kenya's sustainability by partnering with and strengthening the Kenyan county governments, private sector and civil society actors in the arid lands via the grant facility. These efforts will improve local actors' capacity to lead and develop a more robust, sustainable livestock market system in Kenya.  These efforts will reduce the need for humanitarian aid and improve the economic vitality of areas and groups, including women and youth, that are most vulnerable to shocks and threats.$500,000 of funding within this IM contributes to meeting the required "Micro, Small and Medium-sized earmark".
Women's Peace Campaign Project The project will provide support for Gender Based Violence (GBV) awareness and prevention activities, will establish a viable women's network, and will strengthen women's organizations and women leaders.

In urban areas served by utilities and water and sanitation companies, the activity will partner with the private sector, government, and civil society to improve the quality of services, monitor service delivery, and enforce environmental standards. The activity will also strengthen counties' institutional capacity to plan, finance, and manage water services, enabling county governments to provide reliable water service for their citizens.  Finally, the activity will allow financial institutions to offer commercial loans to emerging water companies and create partnerships in the water sector. This approach will foster stable, resilient, self-reliant, and prosperous counties, and directly contribute to the Global Water Strategy's Results 1-3: (1) Strengthen Water and Sanitation Sector Governance, Financing, Institutions, and Markets; (2) Increase Equitable Access to Safe, Sustainable, and Climate-Resilient Drinking Water and Sanitation Services, and Adoption of Key Hygiene Behaviors; and (3) Improve Climate-Resilient Conservation and Management of Freshwater Resources and of Associated Ecosystems.The protection of watersheds and effective management of water resources strengthens hydromet data collection, county level early warning systems, and drought management systems, enhancing access to information and preparedness to address the changing climate context, and supporting the 2022-2027 USAID Biodiversity Policy and Climate Strategy....
