Internal management reports, proposals, meeting records, partner negotiations, contact lists and commercially sensitive documents are represented by reader-facing summaries only. Historical source files sometimes use “FEW Nexus”; the current public platform uses “FEEW Nexus” to make the environmental dimension explicit.

FEEW systems as social determinants of health

Food and nutrition, safe water, clean energy, environmental conditions, housing, livelihoods and climate resilience influence health long before people enter a facility.

Reader-facing synthesis of the HSDPF–FEEW evolution.
Surveillance and early warning

Drone and multispectral observation

A proposed animal- and plant-health pathway combined lightweight aerial systems, multispectral imaging, surveillance and timely information for farmers and decision-makers.

Climate-smart systems

Water harvesting, irrigation and resilient production

Rainwater harvesting, water pans, dams, canals, irrigation and farmer capability were framed as linked infrastructure for food security, fodder, livelihoods and resilience.

Programme and project-pipeline summary.
County-led developmentWajir and the tri-county programmeCounty co-creation, early field evidence and the Wajir–Garissa–Mandera development frame.
7 resources

Wajir provided the principal county entry point. Work engaged agriculture, livestock and fisheries; lands and planning; public health and sanitation; and water, energy, environment and natural-resources functions before expanding into a tri-county frame.

Open project pathways
Early county evidence

Farmer-market linkages and resilient crops

Early programme records note direct farmer-to-market linkage, initial export activity and the introduction of more heat-tolerant food-crop varieties as examples of the platform’s practical potential.

Historical programme record; presented as documented early evidence, not a current performance claim.
Regional architecture

Wajir, Garissa and Mandera

The tri-county model connected shared ASAL priorities with county leadership, national mandates, academia, development partners, finance and prospective implementers.

Reader summary of the tri-county development architecture.
Water and agriculture

Rainwater harvesting and irrigation

Infrastructure, equipment, technical assistance and county training were assembled around water storage, conveyance and increased acreage under climate-smart production.

Project concept summary.
Livestock and enterprise

Abattoirs and livestock by-product value chains

The programme considered modern processing and linked enterprises including leather, biogas and other by-products to improve value capture, food safety and local enterprise.

Project concept summary.
