Kenya
Think of Kenya. Safaris and beach holidays probably come to mind.
Look a bit closer. You’ll discover a country ranging from grassy
plains where Maasai people herd their cattle, to sprawling cities
where skyscrapers and shanties sit side by side. And there’s
lots more besides...
History – a brief summary of major
events in the country's past
Geography & Environment – a look
at Kenya's geographic location and important physical features
People & Society – examples of
popular Kenyan sports, music and arts and crafts
Factfile – a collection of interesting
facts and figures
Oxfam in Kenya – a summary of Oxfam's
work and history in Kenya including:
-
supporting poor people living in towns and cities, including
domestic workers, street children, and slum dwellers who
could be evicted from their homes at any time
-
improving access to basic services such as education
- helping the people of East Africa during the recent food
crisis.
