STAKEHOLDERS’ SEMINAR ON ‘MIGRATING OUT OF POVERTY IN KENYA’

KISUMU HOTEL, KISUMU, 26-27 APRIL 2012

The seminar was convened by the African Migration and Development Policy Centre

(AMADPOC), which is one of the five regional Core Partners in the ‘Migrating out of Poverty’

Research Programme Consortium (MOP/RPC) coordinated by the RPC Secretariat at the

University of Sussex in the United Kingdom through the generous support of the UK’s

Department for International Development (DFID).

The main objective of the seminar was to provide an opportunity for the stakeholders to

deliberate on issues pertaining to migration-poverty interplay in Kenya, bringing together

stakeholders drawn from ministries/institutions of the Government of Kenya (GOK),

policymakers, representatives of NGOs and civil society organisations, researchers, personnel of

civic authorities, development partners and other actors in migration and development.

After officially opening the seminar, the Deputy Vice-Chancellor of Maseno University, Prof.

Onyango shared a few thoughts on his perspective on migration. He broke down the

phenomenon of migration as follows:

Step by step (for instance a migrant will move to the urban area within a district, then to

a province and then to a major city before moving out of the country.

There is migration from areas with conflict as in the cases of Sudan and Somalia.

International migration e.g. from UK to Africa and vice versa is an important form of

movement.

Migration is dynamic and currently as currently Kenya is experiencing the reverse

migration trends; soon more people will be migrating from urban to rural areas.

He emphasized Maseno University’s interest in the impending research as it is keen to partner

with other institutions/organizations to formulate policies and engage in capacity building.

Welcome Address, Introductions and Objectives of the Seminar

Prof. Oucho, the founder and Executive Director of AMADPOC welcomed all the participants.

He mentioned that AMADPOC was established as a ‘social remittance’; as an institution poised

to provide a lead in migration and development building a bridge between academia and

policymaking. He gave a brief outline of AMADPOC’s strategic plan and the seminars held to

date.

Vision is ‘recognition of the role of migration policy and development policy, inter-ethnic

relations and other spheres of national as well as international development, intra-regional

harmony and interdependence within a globalizing world in which diversity calls for viable

South-North and South-South partnerships.

Mission: AMADPOC aims to deepen viable international partnerships embedded research in

society and build capacity of African countries in the corridors of research institutions, national

governments and inter-governmental cooperation with development partners on migration and

development issues affecting them individually and in South-North and South-South relations.

Mandate: service to sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) with special focus on the Greater Horn of Africa

(GHA)

Programme Areas:

Research and Data Hub (RDH);

Training and Capacity Building (TCB);

Mr. George Odipo (PSRI/UoN);

Dr. Linda Oucho (AMADPOC) – in absentia

The expected outcome of the seminar:

• Expose the participants to AMADPOC’s engagement in the MOP/RPC in Eastern Africa,

the first main research activity beginning with rural-urban migration in Kenya against

the backdrop of untenable theoretical frameworks and perceptions.

• Provide an opportunity for the diverse migration and development stakeholders to

acquaint themselves with what the impending research entails.

• Create an opportunity for the stakeholders of migration and development to review

methodological approaches and issues to be investigated through respective data-

collection approaches, identifying gaps to fill and unnecessary information to exclude.

• Open a window of opportunity to vent on the impact of rural-urban migration on either

poverty reduction or aggravation at various levels in both origins and destinations.

• Provide a platform for recommendations to the research team to address pertinent

concerns that would ensure success of the research project.

1. Migrating out of Poverty: Research and research uptake

According to Ms. Angela, the hypothesis of the research is ‘migration impacts on poverty

positively or negatively mediated by range of factors’ and research is therefore geared towards

testing this hypothesis. In her view, the research will focus on:

1. Circumstances leading to migration.

2. Does migration help people move out of poverty?

3. What impact does it have on women and girls?

4. Urbanisation and rural-urban migration;

5. Policy analysis and evaluation.

She proposed research uptake as involving 3 stages:

Consultation with the stakeholders,

Disseminating information (may be posted on the websites to ease access),

Putting information into use.

In order for the research to be accepted and adopted,it should be policy relevant and evidence-

based.

Research uptake is important to this research in that it ensures an understanding of migration,

brings out the gaps in policy and understanding,, identifies the stakeholders, develops and

improves policy making.

Research uptake activities will include integrating research uptake approach from outset of

research, and initiating Stakeholder dialogues and communicating the findings appropriately.

In concluding her presentation, Ms. Haynes poised the following questions for discussion:

a. Who has used research to enhance their work?

b. Of those who have used research what is your experience?

c. What kind of research do you need?

d. Of those who have not used research in your work, why not?

e. Does this research sound relevant to your needs?

f. What kind of research do you need?

Points that arose during the discussion:

a. Research findings have helped in the implementation of policies, for example

“mainstreaming disability in all sectors”

b. There is difficulty in accessing information or findings from research

Page 6: MOP Kisumu Report Summary

6

c. At times, the language used is technical and can only be understood by fellow

researchers

d. There is need for more evidence-based information other than the information on the

internet

e. There is an implementation gap between the researchers and the consumers

f. There is need to bridge research and use

g. Migrants have diverse experiences compared to non-migrants and it is important to

understand those experiences which will be brought forward by the research

h. The University curriculum should be revised to take into consideration the courses that

relate to population issues like migration

i. It is important to package research findings in a manner that all stakeholders including

the media can be in a position to make use of them

j. Among the constraints to research use is bad governance; for instance, the researchers

find difficulties when inquiring on the socio-economic situations of the country of

origin.

2. Rural-Urban Migration in the Research Sites:

Perspectives from Population Censuses

In his presentation, Dr. Agwanda gave an overview of migration from population census

perspective. He defined migration as a form of spatial mobility involving change of usual

residence between clearly defined geographical units.

Types of Migration:

a). International – Movement across national boundaries

b). Internal –movement within boundaries of a country

He pointed out the gap that migration as an aspect of population ranges from analysis to data

availability. For instance analysis of migration is still based on census data in Kenya, which just

gives the skeleton of what is happening as regards migration, and which therefore calls for

more research/studies. Analytical volumes are based on direct methods which have some

limitations; for instance, they do not immediately permit inference of rural-urban migration and

the reverse. Indirect methods are still useful given limited data. It is useful to explore the use of

administrative data and need and to conduct surveys for better understanding of migration at

household, community and other levels.

Page 7: MOP Kisumu Report Summary

7

In his view, the measurement and analysis of migration are crucial in the preparation of

population estimates and projections for a nation or parts of a nation. It is important to note that

education stimulates migration.

Type Strengths and weaknesses

Lifetime

Provides some idea of flows, but useful only with multiple censuses

and then only by calculating differences in cohort or subpopulation

size after adjusting for mortality and under enumeration. Not a good

substitute for migration measured using a question on a fixed

reference period.

Migration during past

12 months

Excellent measure but migration may be exaggerated by recent events.

Indirect estimation of Internal Migration:

1. Census survival ratio method

2. Life table survival ratio method: Forward survival, Reverse survival, Composite

Page 8: MOP Kisumu Report Summary

8

3. Composite method: (Weakness – does not give direction of move from either rural –urban

or vice versa)

From the analysis of 1999-09 census data, Nyanza and Western have been found to be the net

losers of the population aged 15-35 years. This could be attributed to several push factors

including: lack of adequate tertiary institutions, inadequate employment opportunities,

inadequate social amenities, etc.

Nairobi experiences the opposite (i.e. net gainers of persons of the age group 15-35 years), and

this could be attributed to the pull factors (e.g. employment possibilities, better social amenities,

security, etc)…. (Refer to the graphs on the slides).

3. The Research Questions at the Origins of Rural-Urban Migration

Mr. George Odipo’s presentation emphasized on data collection techniques. In his view, the

questions should be framed in a such way as to capture data that is geared towards achieving

the objectives of the research. For instance, issues pertaining to decision making, migration

duration, migration steps and migration motives. In addition, the data collected should also be

relevant for use by all the stakeholders.

From his presentation, the issue that arose was, ‘how can we ensure that respondents open up

and give the required information given numerous surveys that they have been subjected to?’

Prof. Oucho allayed these fears by assuring the researchers that the research assistants will be

trained appropriately so as to enable them handle such situations. In addition, awareness on the

research will be done adequately before the survey commences.

Dr. Nyanjom added that a comparative study could be done in Siaya/Vihiga Vs

Nairobi/Kisumu to explore the nature and depth of poverty in the sending points. The study

could also inform on the determinants of migration patterns two sending points are similar or

different.

4. Qualitative Data Collection Approaches for the project

Ethnographic Surveys:

In his presentation, Dr. Olungah defined ethnography as the branch of anthropology that

provides scientific description of individual human societies. The research project will employ a

combination of the following ethnographic methodologies:

Page 9: MOP Kisumu Report Summary

9

i. Participant Observation: It involves immersing oneself into a community to gain in-depth

knowledge about the intricacies and happenings in the community.

ii. In-depth Interviews of key informants.

iii. Focus Group Discussions; and

iv. Phenomenological Analysis.

Like his fellow researchers, Dr. Olungah emphasized on the researchers’ expectations in

understanding the individual holistically in terms of his/her motivation to out-migrate,

decisions to migrate, structures supportive of in-migrants, their integration in urban centres,

their links with their rural origins, formation of support networks and the effects of the

devolved system of governance on migration patterns. All the above will be linked to the

poverty reduction initiatives.

5. Rural out-Migration to urban uncertainties in Kenya: Gender imperatives

Dr. Linda Oucho’s presentation was given by Dr. Olungah who will be the lead researcher in

the project. In her presentation, the main purpose of the project is to investigate the nature and

the extent of rural out-migration to urban uncertainties in Kenya and explore the connection

between migration and poverty. The research also intends to explore the importance of gender

within the research through the experiences of women and men.

Aims and Objectives:

1. To examine the factors determining rural out-migration and urban in-migration of

male and female individuals from the two Counties and the two cities respectively

2. To identify demographic, gender and socio-economic characteristics of migrants

insofar as they initiate and subsequently perpetuate migration to Kisumu and Nairobi.

3. To investigate the nature and extent of rural-urban migration in either alleviating or

aggravating poverty of rural households as well as male and female migrants’ welfare in

urban settings

4. To understand how and through what mechanisms male and female migrants

maintain links with their rural origins at individual, household and community levels.

Research Questions:

What factors determine rural out-migration from western Kenya?

◦ Are the factors the same for men and women?

◦ What resources are available for /used by women and men?

Do urban migrants maintain/sever links with their origins, and in what tangible ways?

Page 10: MOP Kisumu Report Summary

10

◦ How do women and men maintain links with their origins?

◦ Are men/women more likely to maintain/sever links?

How do women and girls benefit/fail to benefit from migration?

◦ Exploration of the impact of migration on women and girls in terms of personal

development and empowerment

Methodology:

The research will interview 250 respondents in a semi-structured form. 10 FGDs will also be

conducted with male and female FGDs being done separately in order to capture gender

specific discussions and perspectives.

Dr. Linda Oucho proposed Phenomenological Analysis to illuminate the specific, to identify

phenomena through and how they are perceived by the actors in a situation. This puts into

perspective the experience of phenomena by gender.

Expected Outcomes

Better understanding of the role of gender in understanding rural-urban migration;

Understanding the experiences of poverty as a result of migration from the perspective

of women and men;

To provide a Lessons Learned approach to mainstreaming gender into migration, and

poverty research;

To assist government officials design appropriate policies that take into account gender

experiences in line with Kenya’s Vision 2030; and

To create a gender awareness of challenges faced by women and men in migration

through: Working Papers, policy briefs and book chapters.

6. Understanding Fisher Peoples, Migration and Poverty Reduction

Mr. Nyangori Ohenjo presented migration as one of the strategies that fishing communities

often use in order to secure their livelihoods. Many studies on migration of fisher communities

however have not focused the types of people who migrate and why, their educational level

and the characteristics of their family of origin and the sibling group size.

Mr. Ohenjo brought out the importance of the research to the fisher communities. An

understanding of their reasons to migrate, the different aspects of this mobility (e.g. their scale,

magnitude and duration) is important. The information will inform fisheries management

policies and poverty reduction strategies in fishing communities.

Page 11: MOP Kisumu Report Summary

11

In spite of the importance of fisheries migration at the level of national economies (employment,

food security, etc.), there are inadequate data available on the phenomenon, both in destination

countries and in the countries of origin. Only a few countries have figures that allow for an

assessment of the magnitude of migration. Information on demographic characteristics is

generally lacking and there is, for example, no data with regard to migrants’ family status or

educational level.

Mechanisms to protect specific rights of migrant fishing people are an opportunity for

introducing local co-management mechanisms. The lack of detailed information on the

characteristics of migrant fishing people and on their economic importance constitutes a

handicap when it comes to the formulation of policies supportive of fisher folk’s migration.

The role of women in migration

Migrants and migratory behaviour vary according to gender.

Women have a special status in the migration process. During short-term migration,

fishers’ wives do not usually go with their husbands. In the absence of their spouses,

women who stay behind take care of children and the elderly.

For long-term migration, many women follow their husbands on their sojourns

Majority of women work in fish processing and marketing and hence support their

husbands’ work.

Women may also contribute to the financing of fishing activities by lending their savings

to fishers

Women staying at home get some of the money sent back by their husbands and

normally invest in small businesses allowing them to gain some independence during

the absence of their husbands.

In some communities, marriage between immigrant fishers and local women facilitates

the integration of migrants into the host community. During long-term migration, it is

not uncommon that men in the fishing community become polygamous.

Among those who are not married, cohabitation and frequent change of partners is

common.

As has been shown in recent studies with regard to the health conditions in fishing

communities, this life style is a concern considering the propensity of sexually

transmitted diseases among which the most threatening is HIV/AIDS.

7. Research Uptake

Research uptake involves knowledge dissemination. The DFID 2008 – 2013 strategy, pledges to

strike a balance between new findings and getting new and existing technology into use. DFID

(Learning lessons on research communication and uptake – Sept 2010 pg3. ) defines research

Page 12: MOP Kisumu Report Summary

12

uptake as “The process of becoming aware of and accessing research outputs, and the

institutions, policies, systems and mechanisms supporting the process”.

Research uptake process involves: dissemination of research findings, capacity development

learning, creating social influence, collaboration between researchers and users, incentives and

re-enforcement, enabling environment, research uptake and use.

Ms Rosemary Barasa, highlighted the importance of designing the research so as to incorporate

aspects that enhance research uptake. The means of disseminating the research findings,

incorporating all the relevant stakeholders, creating an enabling environment, and ensuring that

the research information is put into use should be considered during the research planning

phase.

Research uptake is a process that begins at the start of the research and continues to the

completion of the research and summation of the findings. Planning research uptake will also

involve putting an advocacy strategy in place.

Advocacy Strategy: “A combination of techniques and messages with the aim of achieving set

goals and objectives”

Overall objective for research uptake is to inform and disseminate the principal findings of the

“Rural out-migration into urban uncertainty” research, to mainstream the findings, to promote

ownership and to build awareness that will result in action from policy makers. Approaches in

Advocacy involve: inclusion of leaders, working with the mass media, building partnerships,

mobilization of the community and capacity building.

RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE NATIONAL SEMINAR:

1. Background of the study:

- What are the social factors that stimulate or inhibit migration in the community?

- What are the social amenities in place?

- What is the production level, for instance, presence of markets, factories, large scale crop

production?

The questions above will help present the context as to why people migrate.

2. At the design level it is important to note that there could be community perceptions driving

migration and these perceptions differ from community to community as well as from time to

time. For participant observations, choose the individuals who are part and parcel of the

community.

Page 13: MOP Kisumu Report Summary

13

3. Destinations other than urban (Kisumu and Nairobi) could be having greater poverty

reduction impact and so all destinations are better captured.

4. Interrogate the Sessional Paper No. 10 and other national documents that touch on migration.

5. Concerning advocacy, it is important to engage stakeholders before, during and after the

research.

6. The research findings may be use to inform the government on the need to have a national

migration survey.

7. The research will unearth the issue of brain-drain, and whoever is draining it. It will also

explore on the issue of remittances and explain whether both brain-drain and remittances cancel

each other.

8. The research to capture contextual effects that most government data do not take into

consideration come up with the calendar of events at the community and household level

(migration history).

Way Forward:

- The researchers to hold a meeting and develop the questionnaires

- The report to be sent to all the participants by email

- All participants will be updated on the progress of the project and their inputs are

encouraged.

CLOSING OF THE NATIONAL SEMINAR

In his closing remarks, Dr. James O. Awino, Registrar, Bondo University expressed his

appreciation to AMADPOC, Department for International Development and the RPC

Secretariat at the University of Sussex in the United Kingdom for their support through the

project. He mentioned that the project will be of immense importance not only to the

researchers and policy makers but also to universities as they develop and review their

curriculum. Dr. Awino pointed out that the participation of all the researchers, NGO

representative, Government representatives, policy makers, civil society organizations and

development partners made the seminar a success.

Prof. John O. Oucho, on behalf of AMADPOC, thanked all the participants for their immense

participation in the deliberation on the issues pertaining to MOP. Prof. Oucho also recognized

the expertise which the facilitators from different organizations had demonstrated during the

Page 14: MOP Kisumu Report Summary
