\n\t\t\t\t\tAbout Kanjoo\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t

At present, we are working with the community of Kanjoo, a sub-location of the Meru District in North East Kenya. It borders the Meru National Park and contains 15 villages housing 7,615 inhabitants (2019 census). Kanjoo is a poor and marginalised community with the majority of families living below the Kenyan National Poverty line, which is defined as less than $1.90 per day. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The community at Kanjoo was formed when people were forced to migrate from congested, more developed settlements. It was an unsafe, undesirable area due to the lack of accessibility and amenities; no roads, no clean water, no schools, no electricity and no access to healthcare or hospitals. However, over time people from many different areas and tribes were forced to settle here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
