The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of an early humanitarian response and resilience building on humanitarian outcomes in Turkana and Northeast Kenya, both in terms of cost savings, as well as the avoided losses that can result from a more proactive response. The study investigates existing data and empirical evidence, and uses this to model potential impacts using the Household Economy Approach (HEA).
