In brief human development involves all features of individuals' well-being, this range from health condition to their economic and political freedom. This has not been achieved yet in Kenya and most of African countries hence cannot claim to be developed.
2.0 Conclusion
With the rampant cholera and other diseases affecting the lives of Kenyans, it is obvious that they cannot achieve the development goals. There is a lot of effort put into achieving their millennium development goals...
Cholera still inhibits the country from developing since the majority of the people who are in the lower class and middle class, the one that accounts for the largest labor fraction in the country, as seen before, are ever down with cholera. Development and the health status of a citizenry go hand in hand as seen in the discourse above.

Introduction There is a direct correlation between the lack of clean safe water for drinking and cooking with nutritional problems. The lack of clean drinking water leads to diseases like diarrhea. Nutritional deficiencies are directly related to lack of potable water. This is because a person does not get enough calories, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, or minerals in their body. Undernutrition has been associated with 45 percent of global deaths and nearly
Sustainable Development: An Analysis Development refers to the progressive transformation of society, and the economy[footnoteRef:1]. Sustainable development is "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs"[footnoteRef:2]. Some consider sustainable development an oxymoron, arguing that it is impossible to achieve development without causing harm to the environment through pollution[footnoteRef:3]. Fortunately, there is proof that a country could actually achieve development
Animal Production: Biotechnology Biotechnology has achieved some dramatic advances in recent years in both crop and livestock production. Food production results from the interaction of humans, animals, land and water; to help speed up this process, make it safer and more efficient, biotechnology has been involved. These include transferring a specific gene from one species to another to create a transgenic organism; the production of genetically uniform plants and animals (clones);
