In June 2003, the World Bank released additional credit worth 77.9 million USD to the Kenyan government through the Arid Lands Resource Management Project. The funds will help finance the cost associated with:

1. scaling up both geographically and substantively the successful drought management and long term livelihood activities of the Arid Lands project in 28 districts;
2. reimbursing eligible and audited non-food expenditures associated with the severe drought which has affected the arid and semi-arid districts of Kenya over the last year; and
3. scaling up the drought contingency fund which is operating under the current credit and has been depleted due to the extended nature of the drought.
