In the dry and unforgiving landscape of Turkana in northern Kenya, families are hungry, the precious livestock they depend on is dying, and water can scarcely be found.
Communities have not witnessed consistent rainfall for far too long and many people are suffering as the country experiences its worst drought in 40 years.
Amid this despair, there remains a beacon of hope and that hope comes in the form of a colourful bowl of tasty beans and maize, served to children in nurseries and primary schools in Turkana.
