Strengthening Citizen Participation

As a member of the Tharaka-Nithi CSO Network, we joined other stakeholders in the validation of the proposed Tharaka-Nithi County Public Participation Policy.

The exercise brought together the County Government of Tharaka Nithi, Tharaka Nithi County Assembly, Gradif-K, MCAs and CSOs to review and strengthen a public participation policy draft aimed at making public participation more meaningful, inclusive and responsive to the needs of citizens.

For Africomm Development Centre, this is more than a policy process. It is a reflection of our continued commitment to ensuring that citizen voices, especially those of youth's, women, persons with disabilities and vulnerable groups are heard and translated into action.

We are encouraged to see our collective efforts towards purposeful and inclusive public participation bearing fruit.

Elections are not the only time citizens shaped their future!

Supported by Uraia and Gradif-K we joined duty bearers and community champions in Tharaka Nithi County Citizens Manifesto Validation Forum, bringing together citizens to define the development priorities that matter most to them.

A Citizen Manifesto is a social contract between citizens and those who seek to lead.
It sets out the people's expectations ahead of the 2027 General Elections and provides a benchmark for measuring whether promises become action.

Democracy is not only about choosing leaders; it is about ensuring leaders remain accountable long after the ballots are counted.

Together we can strengthen Citizen-Led accountability beyond the elections.

Nothing about the people, without the people.

At Africomm Development Centre, we believe sustainable development is achieved when citizens are actively involved in identifying problems, setting priorities, and influencing decisions that affect their lives.

The Maara Constituency People's Assembly convened by Gradif-K demonstrated the power of citizen-led dialogue by bringing together diverse voices to define a shared development agenda. This is the essence of participatory governance; where communities move from being passive beneficiaries to active architects of their own future.

A people's manifesto is more than a document; it is a social contract that challenges leaders to listen, respond, and remain accountable to the citizens they serve.

We commend Trust and ELGIA for advancing meaningful Participatory Dialogues through the Ajenda Yetu Project. Together, we are strengthening active citizenship, promoting social accountability, and ensuring that every voice counts in shaping inclusive and sustainable development.

When citizens lead the conversation, communities lead the transformation.

Effective policies are the foundation of inclusive, accountable and sustainable development.

Today, with the support of Gradif-K and Uraia we participated in the Policy Review Round Table Meeting bringing together County Government of Tharaka Nithi duty bearers and CSO members to strengthen collaboration towards better governance and service delivery.
Key discussions focused on the Youth Empowerment Act, 2020, the Gender Mainstreaming Policy, and the Anti-FGM Policy.

As members of the Tharaka Nithi CSO Network and Governance champions, we reaffirm our commitment to partnering with County Government duty bearers in the formulation, implementation and monitoring of policies that protect rights, empower communities and create lasting impact.

Together, through collaboration, accountability and shared responsibility, we can build a more inclusive, equitable and prosperous Tharaka Nithi for all.

A small act of dignity can create a lifetime of confidence. We were honored to hold a successful Menstrual Wellness Education session at Chuka Mosque Community, where we engaged girls and women on menstrual health, broke harmful stigma, and distributed sanitary pads and other essential hygiene products.

Period poverty should never stand in the way of a girl's education, health, confidence or dreams. Together, we can create a community where every girl and woman manages her periods with dignity and pride.

One conversation, one pad, and one life at a time, we are working towards ending period poverty in our communities.
