It is also recognised that the impact of large number of refugees within the camp settings has contributed to environmental degradation and de-forestation, due to fire wood being used as the main cooking fuel. Efforts have been made in the past by various stakeholders on re-habilitating areas in and around the camps. While not the main purpose of the Action, environmental protection and climate smart agriculture will feature in particular as part of component 2 in Turkana. Adaptability to climate change will be considered as part of the skills development components (outputs 2.1/3.1).

The 2021 Refugee Act foresees that refugees and asylum seekers shall be entitled to the rights and duties contained in the UN Convention, its protocol and OAU Convention, as well as all the laws in Kenya. The main SDG addressed is Goal 10 'Reduced Inequalities', target 10.7, with the aim of reducing inequalities faced by refugees. Through improved asylum management and more inclusive policies, rights holders are expected to gain significantly, due to a more transparent and accountable asylum process, while the Action aims to increase the capacity of duty bearers, notably the Department of Refugee Services. It is expected that the new Refugee Act will reduce the tome for certain procedures, such a Refugee Status Determination (RSD) and promises to improve access to identification cards. The rights-based approach will also be mainstreamed during components 2 and 3, ensuring equal and non-discriminatory access to training and other opportunities. Equally, it should be noted that despite the new Act, refugees and asylum seekers will continue to face certain limitations, including on the freedom of movement, where the existing encampment policy has not been completely revised."}, {"bbox": [96, 1492, 196, 1519], "category": "Section-header", "text": "### Disability"}, {"bbox": [85, 1572, 1143, 1647], "category": "Footnote", "text": "⁶ 3.1 Will build on existent education projects funded by DG ECHO and other humanitarian partners, notably regarding coordination, sharing of responsibilities/activities, development of curricula, training of teachers, targeting of beneficiaries to maximise the impact of each actions"}, {"bbox": [1037, 1680, 1144, 1706], "category": "Page-footer", "text": "Page 9 of 24"}]
