Response to Drought Emergency, Disease Epidemics including Measles in Turkana County When violent clashes between competing factions within the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement/Army (SPLM and SPLA) broke out in Juba on 15 December, over 100,000 South Sudanese refugees fled their homes. Since mid-December 2013, an additional 15,400  South Sudanese have crossed into Kenya, through Nadapal, the only official border crossing point between Kenya and South Sudan. However, given the instability prevailing in South Sudan, entry into Kenya by those fleeing to seek safety is likely to take place at various unofficial entry points in Turkana County. Based on the current rate of new arrivals, the total number of new refugees from South Sudan is expected to rise to 20,000 by the end of March 2014. 
The HC/RC of Kenya reached out to CERF on 12 February requesting US$5.1 million to respond to the influx of refugees from South Sudan, measles and food insecurity due to drought in Turkana district. The CERF questioned the relationship between the refugee influx and the nutrition situation in the wider county and on 17 February the HCT agreed to separate the nutrition elements from refugee response and sent a revised request for US$4.6 million.

KEEPING THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG PROTECTING AFRICAN LIONS AND OTHER PRIORITY SPECIES THROUGH CAPACITY BUILDING IN SOUTH AFRICA Wildlife trafficking remains a serious threat to wildlife species in South Africa, the third most biodiverse country in the world. In particular, the enforcement of policies under CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species) is complex in South Africa, in part because of captive breeding programs for lions and other animals. Enforcement challenges are further exacerbated by discrepancies and non-compliance in the issuing of permits from provincial conservation authorities.
