Goal

This is a Circle of displaced people out of tribal conflicts. They have settled at Mararal town for more than 20 years.

The Circle was formed to address the rampant poverty issues within the settlement villages ranging from water shortages, inaccess to educational facilities, high incidence of HIV/AIDS, abuse to human rights and low incomes. This was aimed at raising the economic status and improvement of living standards.

The Circle was established in 2000 after being trained on Reflect methodology and Participatory Rural Appraisal development approaches by Epid- Kenya and Action Aid.
