What it covers
An exploratory study of prospective peace-aligned investments in three counties of northern Kenya: Elgeyo Marakwet, Mandera and Marsabit. It maps the sectors with investment potential, the actors already present, the conflict dynamics an investor would meet, and the conditions under which investment could support rather than strain local peace. A separate summary sets out the findings and recommendations.
