Trócaire envisages a just world where people’s dignity is ensured, where
rights are respected and basic needs are met; where there is equity in
the sharing of resources and where people are free to be the authors of
their own development.
Trócaire’s ASALs resilience programme (ARP) which is an integrated
livelihoods and humanitarian programme focuses on the Arid and Semi-Arid
Lands (ASALs) of Kenya which cover 80% of the country and experience
low, infrequent and unreliable rainfall, thus recurrent droughts.
The livelihoods programme (ARP) wishes to review the effectiveness of
the Gender, HIV & AIDS and Protection initiatives carried out by our
implementing partners.
This exercise is aimed at identifying and documenting how target
beneficiaries (ie disadvantaged communities and vulnerable groups within
them, especially women) have experienced our projects (eg support to
diversified livelihoods strategies, income generating activities,
community managed natural resources etc) and how they perceive the
impact of these initiatives.

impacted on target beneficiaries in terms of protecting gender and HIV
related rights.
Specific objectives:

To identify, analyse and document the ways in which project
initiatives have impacted on the lives of different gender groups and
those living with, or who are affected by, HIV;
