ASAL Humanitarian Network – Sub-County 3W Mapping

Multi-Purpose Cash Response Expands Across Kenya’s Arid Counties

3W Overview – Sub-County Humanitarian Activity Snapshot

The ASAL Humanitarian Network (AHN), in collaboration with MapAction, produced a sub-county level 3W (Who-What-Where) map detailing multi-purpose cash response activities implemented during the 2023 drought across Kenya’s arid and semi-arid counties. The visual captures the geographic spread of humanitarian interventions as of 23 August 2023, highlighting donor engagement, partner presence, and sectoral coverage.

The analysis shows coordinated action across Garissa, Isiolo, Mandera, Marsabit, Samburu, Tana River, Turkana, and Wajir, supported by key donors such as USAID (BHA), ECHO, DANIDA, MACP, Oxfam, Save the Children, and Concern Worldwide. Local partners including SND, ALDEF, NAPAD, SAPCONE, TUPADO, and MID-P led program delivery through cash, voucher, and hybrid assistance models.

The 3W mapping underscores AHN’s role in advancing a harmonized drought response framework, strengthening accountability, and promoting efficient targeting of drought-affected households across the ASAL region.
