The COVID-19 pandemic in Kenya persists amidst devastating socio-economic shocks and disruptions, not only from the increased illnesses and deaths but also the negative effects of the containment measures. Kenya’s economy recorded it’s first contraction in two decades (-0.3%), with accommodation and food services the worst hit sectors.1 This, compounded by an ongoing drought situation in parts of the country and below average rainfall during the rainy season (Oct-Dec), has resulted in nationwide inflation of basic commodities driving an increase in food insecurity, most dire in fragile counties like Garissa, Tana River, Kwale and Kilifi.2 This compounded crisis is further widening gender inequalities, especially in Tana River county where an increasing number of young girls are dropping out of schools, with fears of being married off for cash and food.3 In addition, the long-standing maritime dispute between Kenya and Somalia could escalate tensions in border counties as Kenya rejects the International Court of Justice’s (ICJ) verdict over the row.4
