14 years ago, Alice Lasoi’s marriage ended after eight years. With four children in tow and seven months pregnant, she returned to her father’s home, Namelok village in Kajiado, southern Kenya. “I asked my father if I could get a portion of land to try farming and goat rearing. I needed financial means to feed, educate and care for my children,” Lasoi told Climate Home News.
