dc.description.abstractResource-based conflicts are prevalent in open air markets. These conflicts could be physical, natural, financial, environmental and social. This study however, sought to investigate the challenges women entrepreneurs experience due to lack of water and poor sanitation; to determine the kind of conflict that has emanated due to water crisis. The use of questionnaires, interviews and focus group discussions were employed to solicit relevant information from the respondents. The sample frame was 300 women entrepreneurs from the four purposively picked open air markets, as per Krechie and Morgan table and explored four markets of Daraja Mbili, Nyakoe, Suneka and Riosir. Information collected was analyzed using excel in terms of tables, graphs and pie charts. The findings clearly indicated that there is a serious water shortage and supply coupled with poor sanitation in the county especially in open air markets. Based on the findings, the study recommended that the county should seek for partnerships to assist and harvest rainy water in all open-air markets.en_US
