Ifo, the oldest of the five Dadaab camps, provides accommodation for refugees from over ten countries, although most are from Somalia. Like many of the camps on this list, Ifo is severely overcrowded: most household plots are just 12m x 15m, and all nine sectors of the camp have exceeded their designated capacities. Worse yet, half of the camp is located in a flood-prone area. To reduce overcrowding, an extension to the camp, aptly named Ifo II, was constructed in 2011.
Kenya is a country in East Africa with coastline on the Indian Ocean. It encompasses savannah, lakelands, the dramatic Great Rift Valley and mountain highlands. It's also home to wildlife like lions, elephants and rhinos. From Nairobi, the capital, safaris visit the Maasai Mara Reserve, known for its annual wildebeest migrations, and Amboseli National Park, offering views of Tanzania's 5,895m Mt. Kilimanjaro. ― Google
