Situation

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.
