The present resilience analysis is focused on the Isiolo, Marsabit and Meru coutries in the Republic of Kenya. It relates to the baseline survey that is part of the Impact Evaluation strategy designed by the FAO Representation in Kenya in order to assess the effects of specific FAO interventions. In addition, this analysis provides a powerful instrument for the government of Kenya and all partners operating in areas related to resilience for determining the effectiveness of resilience-building interventions.
