1 THE UNIVERSITY OF NAIROBI POSTGRADUATE TRAINING PROGRAMME IN NATURAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL DISASTER MANAGEMENT AND ITS ROLE IN KENYA S NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT BY PROF. J. O. BARONGO DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY UNIVERSITY OF NAIROBI
2 BACKGROUND Recently, Kenya has suffered several episodes of natural, environmental and human-induced disasters which, if not promptly checked and necessary steps taken, could destroy and/or retard the progress of any developmental initiatives already in place. Over 70% of all disasters affecting the country arise from extreme weather and climate events such as strong winds, droughts and floods.
3 The remaining 30% comprise those caused by other events such as earth tremors, land degradation due to depletion of forest cover through illegal human settlements in protected forest areas, inter-ethnical wars and terrorist attacks among others. In light of the above facts, the Kenyan government is presently in great need of well trained manpower in disaster management.
4 It is, however, gratifying to report that, about three years ago, the Department of Geology, University Nairobi, took the first initiative to start a one year Postgraduate Diploma Programme in Natural and Environmental Disaster Management which will try and produce some of the highly needed experts in this field.
5 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES The main aim of this programme is to prepare candidates for senior positions in dealing with disasters and thus enhancing opportunities for sustainable development. The specific objective is to provide training and equip trainees with the necessary knowledge to undertake effective planning and management tasks in disaster reduction programmes by bringing into focus the multidisplinary and intersectorial nature of disaster management.
6 ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS Common regulations for the Postgraduate Diploma in the University of Nairobi and the Faculty of Science shall be applicable.

23 CONTRIBUTION TO NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT The trained manpower will find job openings in the following organizations in which they will contribute their knowledge and expertise to the national development:- Government ministries and departments dealing with disaster management National Operations Centre in the Office of the President dealing with disaster emergencies
24 The soon to be established National Disaster Management Authority (NADIMA) Various agencies of the United Nations Organization involved in disaster management Non-Governmental Organizations also involved in disaster management Etc.
25 CONCLUSION Kenya has lately been a victim of several types of disasters ranging from droughts, floods, earthquakes and tremors, land degradation, interethnical wars and terrorist attacks. To be able to properly handle matters related to disasters and disaster management, any country requires, first, a generally well educated population and then well trained manpower in disaster management.
26 Kenya has made a commendable effort to establish structures and policies that will look after the proper management of disasters. All these efforts call for urgent and relevant training programmes to produce experts in disaster management who will be absorbed in the big market already existing in this field.
27 The Department of Geology of the University of Nairobi has heeded that call by starting a Postgraduate Diploma Programme in Natural and Environmental Disaster Management which is currently producing the required experts
